Summary: I didn't recieve the original
Review: I bought this because the reviews visible at the time said that this was the original animated version - the one with the sad ending.

The first thing I did when I got the movie was skip to the end to see if it was the right version. It's not. The mermaid and the prince get married, and the king makes a little speech about ending evil pollution.

It's probably a good movie, but I'm so disappointed that it's not the one I was hoping and searching for that I can't bring myself to watch it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This is not the original story
Review: If you purchase this DVD expecting to get the original version of the story (which has a sad ending, as opposed to the Disney version), you will be seriously disppointed, as was I. This movie is only 41 minutes long and does not have the original ending by Hans Christian Anderson. It is a cute enough cartoon, but basically a shortened Disney version, and not at all what I had expected.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The Original Story of The Little Mermaid
Review: It was very good animated movie when i last watch it although it's not very long. It gives you a veiw of the orginal story of Hans Christian Anderson. It's a very sad story but it's defintely worth watching.The begining of the story is the same as Walt Disney's The Little Mermaid but the end is more tragic. I won't tell you about it because it will spoil the story.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better Than Disney's
Review: This animated version of the Little Mermaid is by far much better than Disney's - But, the ending is quite tragic, which may not be good for kids to watch. I'd say this is a very good short film for Adults to watch who are fans of the "true" story and like "cartoon movies." The art is absolutely beautiful.

Summary: excellent
Review: This movie is great for both kids and adults. I hadn't seen it in about ten years, and watching it again really brought back memories... even if you're an adult, you can still laugh with the characters, and the beauty of the scenes is exceptional... the songs are memorable as well. This is definitely one of Disney's best productions.

By the way, when you watch it... there are two interesting things that my friends and I noticed..
First, in the first half, in one of the scenes on the boat, one of the sailor's shirts change colors while Hans is talking. Second, when the Ariel is in his castle, they put her to bed and she doesn't have any sheets or blankets... notice what happens just a few seconds later...
