Film in 2017: Who Killed The Little Mermaid?

#97: The Little Mermaid & #32: Who Killed Captain Alex?

A mermaid princess makes a Faustian bargain with an unscrupulous sea-witch in order to meet a human prince on land.

You know it, you at least love the music, it's the girl who kicked off the Disney Renaissance, and in  2018, people still misunderstand a children's movie and think she traded her voice for a man.

This kinds of reminds me of Brave, where a woman who is supposed to be a big part of the story is muted, but unlike that, this doesn't anger me because it's on Ariel's on volition...sorta kinda.

Under The Sea remains a banger.

Uganda's president gives Captain Alex the mission to defeat the Tiger Maffia, but Alex gets killed in the process. Upon hearing the tragic news, his brother investigates to avenge Alex, hence the title Who Killed Captain Alex.

Who Killed Captain Alex? Is an Ugandan, Wakaliwood production done on less than a shoestring budget (It was only 200$) and everyone involved takes it very seriously.

You know what? They should! Budget doesn't matter (unless you have it and refuse to use it, hi terrible red wigs in Inhumans and Titans), and everyone here has so much fun that you just don't care.

For what it tries and its budget, it's fine, and shows the ingenuity of humanity.

The film uses something called a Video Joker - basically a let's watcher you can't turn off and special effects.

You can even watch it yourself fore free!
