Review of Mermaids

Mermaids (1990)
5/10
5/10 how NOT to do character development
5 March 2002
So we got a mother who gets around. A daughter who wants to be a nun; when she's not thinking about getting it on, and of course a daughter who is obsessed with....swimming.

A cute film that wears its welcome out quickly. Bob Hoskins is the only actor who can fully develop a character in the film -- but admittedly -- Ryder is a joy to watch. The film is predictable coming of age story.
