02/02/2019 The best fantasy romance movie ever made! See more 09/06/2015 another fish out of water tail See more 02/03/2015 Dull and disappointing from what you may expect from its title. See more 01/14/2014 A delight tale from start to finish. Add this wonderful Hollywood classic to your collection. See more 09/04/2011 In this midlife crisis fantasy film, William Powell plays a married man turning 50, falling in love with a much younger woman. Nothing new here, except for the fact she's a mermaid. What could have been a comedy along the lines of Incredible Mr. Limpet, this film failed to come anywhere close. Even the great Powell seemed to be bored, as he lacks his usual charm and energy. I had such high expectations for this film. See more 08/31/2011 I guess cos I'vbe seen them first this reminded me of an early "splash" or "the increadable mr limpet" in this comedic fantasy. See more Read all reviews
