"Disney's #TheLittleMermaid is definitely one of the better live-action adaptions," says Fandango's Erik Davis. Bailey is great, McCarthy rules, the songs work but it just feels so unnecessary." "Are you skeptical and worried about it? That's valid too. It’s exactly what you think it is," thinks Gizmodo's Germain Lussier. Are you excited for #TheLittleMermaid? You'll like it. Best when it leans into campy bonkers, yet limits its fantasy elements for no reason." Halle Bailey, Jonah Hauer-King, Melissa McCarthy & Javier Bardem put their heart & souls into a film that can't escape its animated legacy. Daveed Diggs and Awkwafina provide solid comic relief," says journalist Simon Thompson.įilm critic Courtney Howard says: "#TheLittleMermaid: Charming, but incredibly spotty. Halle Bailey and Melissa McCarthy are great. "Endearing but uneven, #TheLittleMermaid doesn't deliver the magic of the animated classic but there are plenty of creative touches from Rob Marshall to float the audience's boats. "Daveed Diggs & Melissa McCarthy are highlights but Halle Bailey is the one astonishes with her gorgeous singing & empathetic charm" "It may look visually rough under the sea, but THE LITTLE MERMAID eventually recreates some of the original's magic through its timeless story & cast," says Next Best Picture's Matt Neglia. |
