The Little Mermaid has been one of my favorite disney movies since I was a little girl. I truly connected with Ariel because when I first watched it I saw a redheaded mermaid who I saw myself in, as I was also redheaded and was in swim lessons. So when I heard that they were doing a live action, I was super excited, them the first trailer came out and I had mixed feelings. I wasn't sure of the lighting, acting, and cgi. Now that I have seen the live action, I can definitley say that all that worry was for nothing. Everything about the movie was great and it does have extra aspects that the animated version didn't have, so I can say that I like the live action and animated versions equally. I definitley recommend going to see The Little Mermaid!!
