Mermaid Control's Film Review - Sincere Mermaid Love

I am a Shanghai native born in the 1985s. When I was a child, I was looking forward to the Zhengda Theater. I believe that if many people are of the same age, they should be impressed. There were three love movies that impressed me: "Angel in the World", "Modern Mermaid" and "Past Life Love (Wooden Beauty)", all of which are fantasy movies.
Because of my longing and love for fairy tales, I have always kept these three movies in the D drive of my computer. Among them, my favorite is "Modern Mermaid".
I have to admit that I am a typical "mermaid control". I have collected a lot of mermaid-themed movies, including Thailand, the United States, Australia, the Philippines, and even the latest Korean drama series "Remaining Princess". I heard it for the first time. From the beginning of "The Daughter of the Sea", I became obsessed with the brave mermaid who was able to chase the love I loved, unlike other little princesses who were waiting for love. Maybe this is a bit similar to the fact that I dare not pursue true love. . . . What is missing, what is desired.
Mermaid graceful figure, long hair, wonderful singing voice. Although many movies now describe mermaids as terrifying, in the hearts of many of us, mermaids are always a mysterious, kind and beautiful creature.



Said so much nonsense. . . . . A few days ago, I accidentally dug out this old movie to revisit, and saw an interview about "Modern Mermaid", the elderly Tom and Hannah. and previous production team. They said that a scene in which Madison went to the Kraken and asked to become a human was deleted from the movie. Although the filming was very hard, it was deleted in order to make Madison mysterious and dreamy. And Hannah, who played the mermaid Madison, said that until now children will see her call her Madison.
I have to say that Madison has influenced my aesthetics. Until now, when I see foreign women, I always find long blonde hair very attractive.
After watching so many mermaids, I always feel that the fishtails in this film are the most realistic, and Hannah's swimming is very beautiful. When the two met, the obsessive kiss was also very well captured.
Although a section of the content has been deleted, you can find this clip on the Internet. There is a dialogue between a witch and a merman in the subtitles. Also explains why Madison says the moon is full and such.
Allen gave up his land for Madison, and also fulfilled our dream. Mermaid is no longer blindly paying for his lover.
The Hong Kong version of the mermaid was apparently a remake of "Modern Mermaid", and it also used sexy actresses to play the mermaid. But the classic version is still the classic version.

    Because it is too "adult" to Disney, this film is fortunate to be the first film released by Touchstone Pictures; a light-hearted romantic comedy has done all the tasks, but if you really want to judge the quality of this film: the script is basically a copy ET Alien is very formulaic, even the jokes are very old-fashioned, only the minor details are unexpected, the main line of love is even weaker, the dramatic conflict does not originate from the characters, but often reverses; Lil Hannah's innocence is as easy as it gets, but her role is closer to the film's target audience's sexual fantasy than a flesh-and-blood character, while the performance of other actors, including Tom Hanks It is somewhat exaggerated, of course, this is closely related to the essence of Splash's live-action cartoon; in the film, the hero and heroine are shown in the theater in the background of The Evil Dead and Xtro

Splash quotes

  • Allen: I don't understand. All my life I've been waiting for someone and when I find her, she's... she's a fish.

  • Freddie: People fall in love every day, huh? Is that what you said?

    Allen: Yeah.

    Freddie: Yeah? Well, that's a crock. It doesn't work that way. Look, do you realize how happy you were with her? That is, of course, when you weren't driving yourself crazy. Every day? Come on. Some people will never BE that happy. I'LL never be that happy. What am I talking to you for? You don't know anything.
