Underestimated Movie
I think that Mermaids is one of the best films I'd ever seen of Winona Ryder, and I saw so much stuff of this woman.
Mermaids is a underestimated movie. I see it all the time, Winona make a superb role.
Don't you mean underrated?

~ I hate the fact that this movie is underrated. This is a great flick.

Me too! I belive that everyone should watch this movie (okay so maybe not the male gender) But still. This is one of my fav. movies
share ~ It's a wonderful chick flick.

Male gender too. Three cute, charming, warm, wonderful girls. What's not to like. It's also one of those movies you enjoy without really knowing why. It plods along seemingly without direction and then comes together as if it were on course all along. Ends a little abruptly. As if the writer wished to avoid a trite Hollywood ending.
Do you know that guy?
No. But he's a dick.
i just saw it and i thought it was very well done, even though i dispise Cher!
Yes it's a pretty good movie. I was surprised by Cher's acting, she was very good I have to admit it.
And what about Winona Ryder? She's WONDERFUL in this movie. She's a great actress, she's incredibly beautiful, sexy and tender, and has a lot of charm in the movie.
Bob Hoskins is great as always and Christina Ricci demonstrated she was up for big things.
Heavily underrated but that usually happens with great movies like this.
I'm a die hard fan of the horror genre but I appreciate good movies like this.

I agree. I'm male, and I've seen this film three times. The third time I was really able to appreciate what great actors the principal cast are. There are so many emotional reactions expressed in such natural and seemingly spontaneous ways. And there are subtleties one might not catch on the first, or even second, viewing.
Even Ricci's character does wonderful, odd little things to occupy herself when she's not interested in what the adults are doing. Just like a little girl her age would do. A very natural actor, even at that age.
And the tension (and love) between Charlotte and her mom is played perfectly. Again, seemingly completely natural and spontaneous.
