Barbie in a Mermaid Tale

I give this a movie a 6.5. The storyline is good and I enjoyed following it. Barbie who is Merliah in this film is a great character. I loved all the magic and adventure this movie had to offer.

Who I don't like are the characters Kayla and Xylie. I found them to be annoying and distracting.

All in all, it's not the best Barbie movie, but it's still fun and at least worth a watch.

I think this movie was well made. It's got a fun adventure aspect and some nice characters. It tells a great story with a great lesson. It is very silly as most Barbie movie are. Is it as good as other Barbie movies? No. But it's definitely worth it.

I have made no secret of liking the Barbie movies, they are not perfect and none of among my favourite movies, but they are cute and have a sense of fun. A Mermaid Tale is no exception. The animation is really lovely, beautiful colours and gorgeous underwater sequences, and the music is catchy. The dialogue has its corny parts but is generally sweet and has its heart in the right place, the story is on the clichéd and rushed side but again it means well and is charmingly told and the characters while not much different from characters in other Barbie movies are still likable, especially Merliah's cute little friends. The voice work is still going strong, with Kelly Sheridan continuing to grow and very engaging throughout. All in all, not one of my favourite Barbie movies, but very nice all the same. 7/10 Bethany Cox

Barbie is a child of two worlds who returns to her underwater home to fight with an evil family member - it's literally Aquaman solo movie.

Coming from a classic Barbie lover I thought this movie was alright. The whole underwater fashion stuff is beyond my interest but it's good otherwise. If you're a classic Barbie movie fan I suggest watching this at least once and get into watching the second movie because it's better.
