The film starts with introducing us to the sea world and King Triton as he forbids everyone to visit the land ever since Arielās mother was killed by a human.
But Ariel being the curious one still longs to see what and how the life is on land, that is when one night Ariel notices something in the sky as she reaches the surface to see it more clearly ā turned out they were fireworks from a nearby ship. Soon a thunderstorm hits and the ship fails, this is when Ariel meets Eric and saves him.
Triton is enraged by Arielās behaviour but even after confronting her Ariel doesnāt stop and sees Ursula who makes a deal with her, after which Ariel loses her voice and turns into a human for three days.
Towards the end we see Ursula drags Ariel back to the sea but King Triton comes to save her and in the battle Urusa is killed but noticing the sacrifices everyone made for the king and his daughterās unhappiness.
King permanently transforms Ariel into a human where she can happily live her life on land.
Whatās There?
Whatās Not There?
Verdict
Movie āThe Little Mermaidā is a decent movie with the cast playing their roles beautifully, but as a live adaptation of the animated film ā you would find that the movie does not share the same essence.
Overall The little Mermaid is a nice movie to watch and you will love the voice of Ariel and the beautiful setting, but If you are a 1989 Disney Little Mermaid fan then you will be left disappointed with this failed adaptation.
