The top evidence of a great DISNEY movie? A preeteen / teen saying it rocks. Which I am willing to give. When I was 3, I LOVED this movie. I mean, that's all I would watch. And then, just as a "nbody's going to see me anyay, why not?" mood, I saw it again. And fell in love with it. Again. Jodi Benson - spectacular. She deserved, like, 5 Academy Awards. The rest of the quirky cast? Why are there not more than one "Best supporting actor/actress"? The animation spetacular. The storyline - ths is why I love it. <br />The storey line isnt about some pathetic female waiting for a prince or a faerie godmother, no-siree. The only thing old and magical is the witch, thank heaven. Sure, ther's a boy, but - he has a nice dog. I love dogs, so I kinda thought he was OK at the dog part. <br />MAybe I cracked a few "Omigosh, Ariel's like Lydia from Pride And Prejiduce" jokes, but still. I lov this movie. When will more like it come out?
Viewer Reviews
he only thing that I don't like about these Disney DVDs is that they're all SO expensive!!!
Some new DVDs are 15 bucks, but the Disney ones are always 19 bucks +. I don't understand it. Can't a kid buy a Disney DVD for 15 or so bucks anymore? Guess that answer is NO.
Disney's "The Little Mermaid" mostly takes place in the sea.
Ariel, who is 16, is very stubborn and headstrong, and disobeys her Father, King Triton at every opportunity.
She's lovely though; smart, curious and representing for the pretty, red-heads. :P
She meets the dashingly handsome prince, Eric, and falls head over heels. She even makes a "fatal" deal to give up her sweet, uplifting and downright beautiful voice to the treacherous Witch of the Seas, Ursula. But that in turn, gives her a chance to love a human...But was it worth it?
Once she gets legs the story seems to lag (just a bit) but one of the highlights was how excited she was to see Eric's world she's been dreaming of for a while. She gets to command a horse and carriage, gets the wear a dress for the first time and embarrasses herself many times. For some, this part will be a true highlight.
The movie is more or less enjoyable from start to finish.
I'd recommend any kid to watch this unless they have a short attention span.
Not as good as The Lion King or Shrek, but better than Pocahontas, Toy Story and Ice Age.
4.5 stars.
End note: Part Of Your World is a breath-taking experience and alone boosts the score considerably. Very moving and emotional.
