The titular character is honestly a very lovable character, and her anxieties surrounding managing the two sides of her life; the struggles of her teenage life and her new challenges of being a giant kraken. The film suffers from a multitude of small problems that build up to kind of lessen the experience. Weird exposition along with elements of the plot not being explained until the plot requires it. The film could have done better to blend the two elements, and with some ironing out of the details, it could have been much better. The movie is visually stunning, with very energetic 3D animation. As it is, the movie is definitely worth a watch, as it's the best mermaid movie in theaters now. At least watch it for the Mr. Gillman ASMR.
