Introduction
Disney´s The little Mermaid is the 29th animated feature from Walt 迪士尼 Pictures and the one that started the 迪士尼 Renaissance with a bang.
It is Based on the fairy tale written 由 Danish 作者 H.C Andersen.
The Little Mermaid´s production really started soon after Snow White and the seven dwarfs relase but as a featurette not a full lenght feature, but it was put on hold for unknown reasons.

The Characters
Here is a short 描述 of the three main characters.
Ariel
The heroine of this story, a young mermaid that´s trying to learn about the human world and it´s culture.
She ends up falling in 爱情 with a human prince and tries to be with him.
Eric
The Hero of this story is a human prince who seeks the right girl to marry but who don´t sit around feeling sad.
He risks his life to save Ariel towards the end and plays a big part in the climax.
Ursula
The villain of this movie is one of the 更多 scary villains but not one of the best.
She wants to be 皇后乐队 of the sea and uses anyone to get there.
The Setting
The Movie takes place in the underwater kingdom Atlantica and later in the 城堡 and a near 由 village in a unnamed kingdom.
The Story
Ariel, a sixteen-year-old mermaid princess, is dissatisfied with life under the sea and curious about the human world. With her best 鱼 friend Flounder, Ariel collects human artifacts and goes to the surface of the ocean to visit Scuttle the seagull, who offers very inaccurate and comical knowledge of human culture. Ignoring the warnings of her father and court musician (Sebastian the crab) that contact between merpeople and humans is forbidden (the sea's primary contact with humans involve fishermen, so King Triton considers humans as nothing 更多 than mere predators), Ariel still longs to be part of the human world; to this end she has filled a secret grotto with all the human artifacts she has found.
Sebastian, who is assigned to watch over Ariel and be sure she does not visit the surface again, tries to convince her that its better to live under the sea than in the human world.
My 最喜爱的 Moments
Like in any movie there are some scenes that have a bigger effect on 你 and here is three om my favorites.
First we have the tour of the town, its one of my 收藏夹 because that Ariel is so excited to be there and she wants to see every thing, she is like a "kid at cristmas eve" and i 爱情 how that fits her character.
下一个 we have the scene where Ariel meets Ursula, first the song is great and i 爱情 that Ariel hesitates before signing the contract, and her transformation isn´t bad either.
Then we have the 吻乐队（Kiss） the girl song, romantic atmosphere a good song and a little surprise is never wrong.
The Message
I think the message of this movie is that 你 should try and do what 你 can to be happy? Please tell me if iam wrong.
The Verdict
The Story gets a 9/10
Its not really my 最喜爱的 story and i kinda prefer the original story´s morale but this is still good.
The Characters get a 7/10
Some of the characters get too little attention
The Art gets a 7/10
Its amazing especially the underwater sequences.
So i give the movie itself a solid 7/10
I hope 你 have enjoyed this and i hope 你 评论 and say if 你 agree 或者 disagree with what i have 说 here.
