This is the most drawn out and tedious rubbish, WHAT A DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE.... A waste of time. A monotonous plot and the bland acting. This is what chinese show has come to.

What is the idea behind all this? People spend time and money to make such a dumb film. Had to turned it off after 10mins of torture. What a waste of my time.

First of all, for all of you who decided to slam this movie, u are sad. This movie was quite literally a masterpiece. The plot, the characters, even the cgi, was perfection. It was not boring, it was interesting and quite romantic. The ending was sad and makes the audience want more !! #bringoutpart2

I believe that this movie does not deserve the hate and that it should be praised for the masterpiece it is. If you think this movie is bad, then youre just sad. Go watch Cars 2, you disney watchers. You all are 12 and I would like to see you make a movie better than this one; oh wait u cant.

Thank you.

Granted, I wasn't really harboring much of any expectations to the 2021 Chinese drama movie "The Mermaid", mostly because I never heard about it prior to watching it. And a movie about mermaids wasn't really striking me as all that grand. But still, since I hadn't already seen the movie, and wanting to give it a fair chance, of course I sat down and watched it.

I have to say that director Tong Wei and Dawei Zhang's 2021 movie felt like a watered down cash-in on the 1984 American movie "Splash", you know the one that starred Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah, except "The Mermaid" wasn't quite as outstanding and enjoyable.

The storyline in "The Mermaid" had a lot of similarities to "Splash" and on that account then "The Mermaid" felt more like a rip-off than anything else. But hey, chances are that if you enjoyed splash and have a craving towards mermaids, then you might get a kick out of watching Tong Wei and Dawei Zhang's movie.

The acting performances in the movie were nothing to write home about. It was mostly bland performances, but then again, the actors and actresses weren't really given much of any solid material to bring to life on the screen.

Visually then "The Mermaid" was okay. It wasn't a movie that used a whole lot of special effects though, and the effects that were in play on the screen came off as being adequate.

My rating of "The Mermaid" lands on a four out of ten stars.

This movie is such a pandemic . Movie was so boring, no story line character are lame action scenes are not even good. This is an unwatchable exposition dump with the 2 years old humor and CGI.
