The Little Mermaid [Blu-ray]

While Disney may try to do live-action remakes of their classics in order to cash in on that nostalgia, there's no true way to measure up to the original. And one of those original classics is 'The Little Mermaid'.It cannot be overstated how important this film is to Disney's history. The company was not doing very in the 80s, especially when 'The Black Cauldron' was a box office bomb for the company and forced the film division to be downsized. It was even rumored that the company would dismantle the film division in favor of putting more funds towards its theme parks. But in 1989, The Little Mermaid changed everything when it bought the studio back from the brink, entering what we now call the Disney Renaissance.After the Little Mermaid, Disney went on a crazy four year period of creativity with films like Aladdin, Beauty & The Beast, The Rescuers Down Under (a rather underrated film) and last but certainly not least The Lion King. Without the Little Mermaid, we wouldn't have gotten these classics.But enough of that, let's talk about The Little Mermaid.It's a really good film, one that's for the whole family to enjoy. Yeah, there are some negative aspects like the love story not making too much sense and Ariel being too much of a bratty teenager who doesn't really learn much, but it does have a lot of heart and imagination to it. The animation and music are especially the highlights of this film.I give this film a 7/10 rating and definitely worth buying on Bluray/DVD.

Excellent movie for kids the quality is outstanding 👌

Excellent

One of my faves. Wish they weren't so expensive

I love this movie, the 4k is noticeably better

Excellent 4k picture and excellent entertainment.

First time getting The Little Mermaid in 4K. Item shipped fast and arrived in condition (new) as advertised.

First of all, I was very surprised to see that Disney has produced a new digital restoration for The Little Mermaid's Signature edition Blu-ray. The Diamond Edition already looked pretty fantastic, but this new presentation looks even better. The sound is pretty much the same as the previous release, but to be honest, no improvement was needed in that department. The bonus features include a discussion between Alan Menken and some leading Disney ladies, recording sessions, a discussion between Jodi Benson (the voice of Ariel) and Alan Menken about the song "Part of Your World", and its impact on the movie (this is a digital exclusive), plus a big part of the bonus features found on the previous release. The movie is one of Disney's best, and this new release doesn't disappoint one bit. The packaging is another highlight. The beautiful slipcover art features a lot of embossement and holographic effects. It's such an upgrade from the Diamond Edition art, because the characters look like themselves. Highly recommended.

La mejor sirenita de todas, y la versión 4k está mejor la definición ni en el streaming Disney se puede ver así, aunque diga 4k

Una excelente película y excelente calidad audio visual

La verdad no es notable la resolución 4K en esta película, los colores se ven muy apagados creo que con el bluray HD es mas que suficiente

La película es maravillosa y en 4K se ve fantástica, si la comparas con tu viejo DVD, o peor aún, con tu VHS, pero en comparación con la versión Blu-ray no es tanta la diferencia, de hecho no la percibí, vi varios pedazos en ambos formatos y no encontré ninguna diferencia, solo la conclusión de que una película animada no requiere una mejora de Blu-ray a 4k, o por lo menos no es tan evidente su cambio, así que si tienes ya el Blu-ray, no considero que valga la pena gastar en el nuevo formato, pero si no la tienes o solo tienes el DVD, y la encuentras a menos de 400, no lo dudes y cómprala.

Todo bien
