Best this movie stay in the sea

While I won't called it a bad movie, it's not that good. The story mostly focus on a mermaid who disguise herself inorder to save one of her people and trying to get the man who she saved to trust her. It's your standard romance with him not wanting anything to do with him, but soon grows into a relationship with her. It does build up decently with their relationship and how they connected with each other. As for the rescue mission, it barely talk about that much and the main mermaid have to get reminded about it throughout. I do think the visual effects looks nice in some area in the movie. But the climax itself is underwhelming and came out of nowhere with one character twist about him. Also, I guess the movies shows how two species can't be together for some reason and is generic.The Mermaid isn't that impressive at all and is best forgotten.

Floating in lukewarm waters...

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.
