Review of The Little Mermaid (2018) by Jessica-Jones — 22 Jun 2023
I found this film quite by accident, but I must say that it is a refreshing palate cleanser after watching Disney's disastrous 2023 live-action remake of The Little Mermaid. It's not perfect but this film feels far more like what Disney's should have been.
The story is original and interesting, finding a wonderful balance between the original Hans Christian Anderson tale and a more modern spin. The acting is on point for the most part and the special effects are wonderfully done.
It can get a little cheesy at some points, but not enough to throw off the viewer. As a whole, this film is excellent and a much better alternative to the 2023 Disney film. I'd certainly recommend giving it a watch.
