The "villain" is the girls' governess, with no really frightening scenes (such as the ones in Sleeping Beauty or Belle's Enchanted Christmas) so it's perfect for kids, while still having a little opposition from the other side. This, unlike so many of its kind, is a great Disney sequel. Highly recommended. There's great music and the animation is classic. There aren't any old, over-used jokes (need I say Kronk's New Groove or Lion King 1-1/2). Jodi Benson is back as Ariel's voice and it captures all the beauty and quality of the original movie (unlike Belle's Enchanted Christmas where the voice of Belle seems to have been declined quite a bit).
It is strong enough to stand alone and make a great movie. It doesn't seem like an addition to the original Little Mermaid. My daughter adores this video. It lives up to all the expectations that I had for it.
i have to admitt that it did not have all of the music from the first movie, but in the end my daughter liked it. i rented this dvd for my 5 year old daughter. so i would recommened this movie to people who have small children who enjoyed the first little mermaid. its a movie for kids. and while watching this with her i got caught up in the story line and ended up watching to the end. but after reading the other reviews , i couldnt believe others thought the movie was horrible.
There were only a few issues. I also wish they hadn't changed the way Ariel and Flounder met as it contradicts the TV series (which really should be released on DVD as well as the Aladdin TV series). I love everything about Ariel and her friends, so when I heard another movie was coming I was thrilled.
There were other opportunities for original music that I wish the creators would have pursued. I do indeed recommend this movie to any LITTLE MERMAID fan. That being said everything else was wonderful.i wish it would've been longer and that the creators would've decided to bring Ursula back like they intended but Marina was entertaining to watch.
Out of everything I love about Disney, my favorite has to be THE LITTLE MERMAID. The few songs that were original were great such as Athena's Song, I Remember, and I Will Sing, however they should've been longer. I LOVED ARIEL'S BEGINNING.
And as a HUGE fan I thought the movie was great. The first of which was of course the music.
Shipping took some time though. I ordered the little mermaid used and was a little worried about scratches but there was no problems.
