highly recommended

From the moment that Prince Eric's ship emerged from the fog in the opening credits it was apparent that Disney had somehow, suddenly recaptured that "magic" that had been dormant for thirty years. In the tale of a headstrong young mermaid who yearns to "spend a day, warm on the sand," Ariel trades her voice to Ursula, the Sea Witch (classically voiced by Pat Carroll), for a pair of legs. Ariel can only succeed if she receives true love's kiss in a few day's time and she needs all the help she can from a singing crab named Sebastian, a loudmouth seagull, and a flounder. The lyrics and music by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken are top form: witty and relevant, and they advance the story (go on, hum a few bars of "Under the Sea"). Mermaid put animation back on the studio's "to do" list and was responsible for ushering Beauty and the Beast to theaters. A modern Disney classic. --Keith Simanton

Instant Classic!

This movie is a lot of fun, and definitely ranks right up there with older Disney "classic" films such as Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and Cinderella. The folks at Disney did take some creative license with the tale (in the original the mermaid does NOT end up with the prince!), but you can forgive them for that. :) Ursula is a delightful villian; the music is terrific; the story is charming. Buy this one!

A Must Have!!

One of the best Disney Movies. It is always perfect when the adults can enjoy the movie as much as the children.

GREAT!!!

It was GREAT to be able to see Disney's Little Mermaid again. My daughter absolutely loved this movie when she was little. She's almost 21 now and I found this DVD on Amazon. We were able to sit and watch it again like when she was a little girl. It was a very special moment to share with her. Thanks a miliion.

My favorite Disney animated movie

The Little Mermaid is my favorite Disney animated movie ever. Nothing beats the final scene of Ariel in her sparkly dress or the sound of her voice in the conch shell. Unfortunately, it does have some few minor flaws. The biggest of all, for me, are the steps. The hideous, hideous steps. There is a scene where Ariel rushes down some palace steps. The only problem is that the steps aren't animated- they're CGI. In an animated movie. They stick out like a sore thumb, and every time I see them I wince. I know it probably saved Disney a lot of $$$ while they were making the film, but I would've loved it if they had been reanimated for the remastered edition. Also, "Under the Sea" stretches a little too long for my taste and... well, that's about it. You really can't find t00 much at fault with such a classic.
