Deep in the jungles of Copenhagen lives the rare and unique animated film filled with surprises and problems

Thanks so much for the review Mat :) . The review was well worth the wait. You pretty much gave it the score I had expected and I do agree with a lot of your points, even though I do still really like the film. Looking forward, to seeing you review Return to The Sea.

Never heard of this movie, but probably won’t be interested in checking it out. The Little Mermaid 2: Return To The Sea, however, I’ll definitely be interested in checking this review since I have seen this one as a kid. Wondering if you would give this a seal of garbage since the sequel is basically a rehash of the original film.

I’m delighted by seeing you reviewing one of my biggest childhood pleasures! I still love it to this day, but it’s still good to hear some outside opinions which I completely understand. The first sequel is a direct continuation of it with pretty much the same plot, but with the same pros of the original. Glad you praised the animation!

I can think of a better film that honors my name: Martin Scorsese's adaptation of "Hugo Cabret!"

Personally I’ve never really heard of this film before your review so I don’t really have much to say about it. So the next review is going to be The Little Mermaid 2 Return To The Sea. Personally I would say with this film the biggest issue with that film is that it just feels like nothing more than a rehash of the original with the exact same plot. So it wouldn’t surprise me if this film is already guaranteed to get the Animat Seal of Garbage.

Oh boy Little Mermaid 2 is the next one.

This was a fun review. Can’t wait to see your Little Mermaid 2 review. I remember it as a great film.

Also, on the subject of review requests, I sent in my first one a few weeks ago.

I remember my 3rd grade teacher reading us the original book before the film was released. So I was already familiar with it. It’s one of the few book-based films where I was introduced through the book and then the film. But then, again, like I said, it was way before the film adaptation came out.

Oh, boy! The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea is next, or should we call it The Little Mermaid II: Except It’s the Same Film As the First But Reversed. I actually anticipate to see the review now to see how AniMat will tear it shreads.

It almost seems too soon doing a review on Little Mermaid 2, since Samuel E Wright just passed away not too long ago, that and also, this is definitely one of the worst of the Disney sequels in my opinion. Sure, it is one of the few with some decent animation, and the voice acting is overall pretty solid, but God is the story just so lazy. It’s like, “Hey, remember when Ariel Dreamed to become human? Well, now come see her daughter dream of becoming a mermaid!” Not counting some of the minor changes they to “make it different from the original” it’s really the exact same story without the clever writing and memorable music.

This Danish movie is... interesting to say the least. If they could have 20 more minutes of running time, maybe the story would be more understandable, and the characters be more fleshed out (dunno if that's the right words for this statement, sorry). As for my expectations for the next pick, 4 words: "Sharkbait, oo EUGH EUGH!!"
