Review

 

Imagine a time long before Ariel met Prince Eric and walked on land, a time when music was banned from the underwater kingdom of Atlantica. Torn between family duty and her love of music, Ariel must make the most difficult choice of her life. With the help of her friends, Sebastian and Flounder and her six amusing sisters, will the young mermaid be able to restore music, friendship and love to the kingdom?

I have to say I dont agree with the other review to say the plot is "confused" is just plain crazy, true the plot is very basic and is aimed at the young but its very watchable.

If you like LMM then you will enjoy this new adventure

Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars A missed opportunity for the fans.

I was expecting good things from this film as prequels often have several nods to the original film which is great for the fans. Unfortunately this film missed out on that completely and with a rather confused plot and distinct lack of any memorable musical numbers i was left feeling a bit disappointed. This film has obviously been made for very young children and anyone else should probably give it a miss.
If you haven't already got the original on DVD i would advise getting that as it is a complete classic and way better than this.
