Editorial Reviews

The Little Mermaid, released briefly in the early days of DVD, gets the long-awaited Disney Platinum Edition treatment with this two-disc set that contains a fully restored version of the 1989 animated blockbuster and a bonus disc of under-the-sea and behind-the-scenes features. The Little Mermaid boasts an Oscar-winning musical score, dazzling animation in the tradition of Disney's original masterworks, a heart-stealing leading lady, a handsome prince, and the best villainess since Cruella de Ville. As Sebastian (Samuel E. Wright) sings to Ariel (Jodi Benson), "What more is you looking for?" Ariel was the first in what would be a series of more empowered Disney heroines. The independent-minded teenage mermaid, daughter to King Triton, longs to be part of the human world, especially after spying Prince Eric. Ursula (Pat Carroll), the vengeful sea witch banished from Triton's kingdom, sees in Ariel's plight a devious way to usurp Triton's rule. She offers the unwitting Ariel a bargain: In return for her voice, she will give her human legs to pursue her prince. But if he does not kiss her within three days, Ariel will join the "poor unfortunate souls" who have entered into ill-fated contracts with Ursula. For Disney animation buffs, this is the DVD catch of the year. Included here are: deleted scenes and an alternate ending; audio commentary by co-writers and directors Ron Clements and John Musker and composer Alan Menken; an early presentation reel; an audio demo for the deleted song, "Silence is Golden"; a "Making of" featurette that casts a wide net to chronicle the film's production; and a new "Kiss the Girl" music video performed by High School Musical's Ashley Tisdale.
