IGN Score: Good

IGN believes that 'The Little Mermaid' is filled with emotion and stars Halle Bailey in a leading role. While it may not be a resounding success, it is still an acceptable adaptation of the animated original.

Halle Bailey's portrayal of Ariel in Disney's live-action 'The Little Mermaid' is absolutely captivating, making her the true star of the movie. Melissa McCarthy follows closely behind with her enchanting portrayal of Ursula. However, as a whole, the film struggles to maintain a consistent level of quality.

The film's shortcomings lie in its mundane underwater scenes, lack of cartoonish charm in the depiction of real-life oceanic creatures, and a quirky yet not necessarily memorable story. Its most impressive aspect is the incorporation of elements from the original work, notably the spectacular rendition of 'Part of Your World.' While the film doesn't always manage to stay above water, it boasts enough original ideas to make it a decent watch.
