Here are review links for this film submitted by our members:

  • Rick Aragon @ Rick’s Texan Reviews
  • David “DC” Bolling @ Film Yap
    • Excerpt: “The Little Mermaid” isn’t perfect by any means and doesn’t try to hold a candle to the original’s greatness. Still, it’s one of the better live-action remakes I’ve seen from Disney in a while, with Rob Marshall turning this cherished classic into a whimsical, albeit familiar story that’s pleasantly fun for all ages.
  • Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
    • Excerpt: Bailey has a beautiful singing voice, one which transports familiar Menken songs…into new heights…one of McCarthy’s all time best performances, the actress commanding her scenes, singing in a husky voice and vamping like a Broadway diva.
  • Bavner Donaldo @ Cinejour [Indonesian]
  • Candice Frederick @ HuffPost
  • Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
    • Excerpt: Disney’s latest live-action reimagining is acceptable when judged on its own terms, but next to the animated classic, it’s all wet.
  • Harrison Martin @ Flixfrog
    • Excerpt: While a fun adaptation of the source material, The Little Mermaid (2023) is better when it dares to be different. That being said the cast is great and Halle Bailey delivers a stunning vocal performance as Ariel.
  • Eddie Pasa @ DC Filmdom
  • João Pinto @ Portal Cinema [Portuguese]
  • Christopher Reed @ Film Festival Today
    • Excerpt: But let’s talk first about what works. Halle Bailey (of Chloe x Halle fame), as Ariel, is perfect, both in voice and performance.
  • [New] | Diego Salgado @ SoFilm [Spanish]
