“ The Little Mermaid ” made moviegoers want to be under the sea on Memorial Day weekend.
This image released by Disney shows Halle Bailey as Ariel and Jonah Hauer-King as Prince Eric in"The Little Mermaid." Disney's live-action remake of its 1989 animated classic easily outswam the competition, bringing in $95.5 million on 4,320 screens in North America, according to studio estimates Sunday.
The performance of “The Little Mermaid” represents something of a bounce-back for Disney's animated-to-live-action remakes, and makes it likely they will keep coming indefinitely. Poor reception and the pandemic had some recent reboots either performing poorly or skipping theatrical releases for Disney +, including “Dumbo,” “Mulan” and “Pinocchio."
Audiences thought it delivered. The film had an A CinemaScore, and according to exit polling had more ticket buyers between ages 25 and 34 than children, suggesting nostalgic adults were essential.Critics were more lukewarm. The movie is currently at 67% on Rotten Tomatoes.
