DVD Synopsis
This prequel to Disney's widely acclaimed feature film The Little Mermaid follows Ariel's adventures from long before she gave up her fins for true love. When she wasn't singing alongside her sisters, Ariel spent her time with her mother, Queen Athena. Ariel is devastated when Athena is kidnapped by pirates, and even further so after King Triton outlaws all singing. Along with pals Flounder and Sebastian, Ariel sets off in hopes of changing her father's decision to ban music from the kingdom. ~ Tracie Cooper, All Movie Guide

I thought this movie was good in comparison to most other Disney sequels (or prequels). The storyline was decent, it actually explained a few things that may have been confusing about the original movie (such as "Where is Ariel's mom?"), and above all, the animation was not the low quality that most Disney sequels have. This movie was definitely better than "The Little Mermaid II".

This movie was very disappointing. Was an okay storyline but would be something you would expect from the TV show not from a movie.
