Couldn't ask for a better Disney film

Rating: 10/10 (8 April 2015)

When I recently rewatched this film after 20 years, it struck me that I enjoyed it every bit as much, if not more, than when I was a child.
Disney created in Ariel, one of their greatest princesses. Yes, she was impulsive and headstrong, but she was also, inquisitive, loving and kindhearted.
One of the great pleasures of this movie, was remembering how great animation looked before the days of Pixar(although Disney films still look great too!). In my opinion, the animation holds up very well 26 years later.
The cast of characters was extremely enjoyable - evil Ursula, funny Sebastian, loyal Flounder and of course, the man Ariel loved, Prince Eric.
What truly made this movie a classic was the songs, particularly Under the Sea and Part of Your World, which Jodi Benson done a absolutely perfect job on.
The Little Mermaid belongs in the top five all time Disney films in terms of both the movie and the soundtrack. I will always enjoy this film and I can only wish that a new generation would appreciate it like it deserves to be!
