The Little Mermaid (I) (2023)
6/10
Original is Better
26 May 2023
The Little Mermaid (2023) is a live-action adaptation of Disney's 1989 animated classic, based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. It tells the story of Ariel, a mermaid princess who longs to explore the human world and falls in love with Prince Eric, a sailor she rescues from a shipwreck. To pursue her dream, she makes a deal with Ursula, a wicked sea witch who takes her voice in exchange for human legs.

The Little Mermaid (2023) is a mediocre film readaptation that pays tribute to the original film while also adding some new twists and depth. It is not perfect or groundbreaking, but it is good and nostalgic. However, it could have been better if it had followed the same aspects of the original.
