If you look below, they say in the fine print that the actual unweighted mean score averages out to 4.7, which looks about right to me. Not exactly a glowing score. And just yesterday, Golfing Gator was bragging what a HIT the movie was!!!

Apparently many went (it was a holiday weekend), but few were impressed. Another WIN for Disney.

Attendance will be good because all the little black girls want to see it. A larger audience will require talent.

I'm honestly not seeing what all the fuss is about.

"Hey, Mermaids can't be black!"

Um... Mermaids aren't real.

How many people really pay any attention to critics reviews or ratings anymore?

It is a good benchmark.

And one of the most consistent complaints that has been said over and over is how freaking dark it is. And they do not mean the story, but how almost every scene looks like it was filmed at midnight and it is hard to see almost anything.



Even most video games at night have more and better lighting than this. And they spent over $200 million on that?

Compare to the original 1989 version.



Most of the issues have been related to the lighting and the horrible CGI.
