Every story has a beginning but only one begins under the sea…now for the first time ever discover the story you never knew in The Little Mermaid: Ariel’s Beginning, an all-new motion picture only on Disney DVD. Long ago, in a kingdom where music is outlawed, King Triton’s youngest daughter, Ariel, discovers her love for music in a secret, underground music club. Torn with the choice of whether to hide her passion or share it with her father and risk losing everything, Ariel sets off on a daring adventure to restore music to Atlantica.

Noy As Good As The Original
I got this movie for my daughter for Christmas.It's not at all what I expected. This will not turn into a Disney Classic but it's worth the buy.

Very cute
I really enjoyed learning more about Ariel's sisters, but I wish to have seen more of Ariel's mom- she was gone too fast! And the music was underdone, especially related to the first little mermaid, and even in comparison to little mermaid 2, in which there were at least a couple of songs that i still love!
All in all, though, a very nice film to watch with the kids and enjoy for yourself.

Enjoyable movie for you and your child
I have to admit the beginning was not expected and the story line was thin, but overall it's a cute movie. My husband and I didn't have high hopes for it but my 3 year old daughter wanted to watch it. It isn't as good as the original but it was fun seeing Ariel, Sebastian, and Flounder on the screen again after all these years. Now my daughter is a huge fan and talks about Ariel every day. Looks like we need to get the orginal now.

not a typical Disney
I Love Disney movies. Usually it is because the story is good and so is the music. This story was nice, but I have to say that the music was just AWFUL!
It pretty much ruined the movie for me. I mean in one part there was this dreadful piano piece that didn't even fit.
Sally Field, as much as I love her, can't sing.
Disney could have made this movie so much better. I would suggest they try again with a different soundtrack.

Execllent DVD/movie
Got an original, not a copy and fast shipping (even though I paid for regular shipping, I got in about 3 days).
