End note: Part Of Your World is a breath-taking experience and alone boosts the score considerably. The movie is more or less enjoyable from start to finish. But that in turn, gives her a chance to love a human.But was it worth it. Not as good as The Lion King or Shrek, but better than Pocahontas, Toy Story and Ice Age.

She's lovely though; smart, curious and representing for the pretty, red-heads. Guess that answer is NO. Disney's "The Little Mermaid" mostly takes place in the sea. Very moving and emotional. She meets the dashingly handsome prince, Eric, and falls head over heels. 4.5 stars. She gets to command a horse and carriage, gets the wear a dress for the first time and embarrasses herself many times.

She even makes a "fatal" deal to give up her sweet, uplifting and downright beautiful voice to the treacherous Witch of the Seas, Ursula. :P. Ariel, who is 16, is very stubborn and headstrong, and disobeys her Father, King Triton at every opportunity. Some new DVDs are 15 bucks, but the Disney ones are always 19 bucks +. Can't a kid buy a Disney DVD for 15 or so bucks anymore.

For some, this part will be a true highlight. I'd recommend any kid to watch this unless they have a short attention span. I don't understand it. he only thing that I don't like about these Disney DVDs is that they're all SO expensive. 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.

I lov this movie. The only thing old and magical is the witch, thank heaven. Why are there not more than one "Best supporting actor/actress". I love dogs, so I kinda thought he was OK at the dog part.

Again. 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. When will more like it come out. She deserved, like, 5 Academy Awards. MAybe I cracked a few "Omigosh, Ariel's like Lydia from Pride And Prejiduce" jokes, but still. The storyline - ths is why I love it.

The rest of the quirky cast. Jodi Benson - spectacular. And fell in love with it. A preeteen / teen saying it rocks. When I was 3, I LOVED this movie.

The storey line isnt about some pathetic female waiting for a prince or a faerie godmother, no-siree. Sure, ther's a boy, but - he has a nice dog. Which I am willing to give. The top evidence of a great DISNEY movie. The animation spetacular.

Ariel (voice of Jodi Benson) is a beautiful, headstrong 16 year old mermaid who wants nothing more but to live with the land dwellers and be a "Part of their world" (to paraphrase on of the most well known songs from the film). Nothing will stop Ariel when she experiences love at first sight, after rescuing a very handsome young prince from near-fatal drowning. Not only is the animation spectacular and absolutely stunning (this was before the introduction to computer animation, that is so widely used today), but the actors providing the voices for the characters are wonderful. I had the great fortune to see "The Little Mermaid" in the theatre (which is how it SHOULD be seen). It was one of those films you never forget. "The Little Mermaid" can be enjoyed by people of all generations, and will leave you with memorable tunes, a song in your heart and a smile on your lips. All I am going to say is this.this is a MUST SEE.

*two BIG thumbs up* I won't get long winded on you, as far as plot details are concerned. I remember the day I saw this film for the first time, when I was about seven years old. You know I couldn't write reviews of almost every other film I have seen, and leave this one out. Her father, King Triton (Kenneth Mars), knows all too well the stark reality of the fish eating, two legged creatures and doesn't want his daughter to experience the pain of being an outsider, nor does he want her to put herself in harm's way.

Since then,I've watched a good dozen times, and it still gets me every time. I still howl with laughter at the antics of Sebastian and Flounder(he's so cute)., sigh romantically as Ariel sings to Eric on the beach(ARIEL RULES.)., boo(then cheer later)at King Triton, and shudder as Ursula makes her plans for "triton's undoing". The wonderful music and lyrics by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken make me dance around singing. All in all, a wonderful film. THE LITTLE MERMAID is the first movie I ever remember owning. It belongs with all the classic Disney films.

The Little Mermaid is simply enchanting. If you don't want to miss the BEST of Disney's animated movies, you must have The Gracious Little Mermaid. If you are a fanatic of Disney's films, you have to have this masterpiece as part of your collection definitively. The songs, the characters and Ariel's beauty are going to captive you.
