Editorial Review:
The sun, the sand, and a sweet sassy mermaid--what more could any young girl want from summer? Claire (Emma Roberts, Nancy Drew: The Mystery in Hollywood Hills) and Hailey (JoJo, R.V.) go giddy at the sight of hunky lifeguard Raymond (Jake McDorman). When a storm washes a mermaid named Aquamarine (Sara Paxton, Sleepover) into a swimming pool, Claire and Hailey agree to help her find love--even if it's with Raymond--because Aquamarine will grant them a wish that will keep Hailey from having to move away to Australia. Parents of preteen girls may approach Aquamarine with dread, but the movie's formulaic beginnings are given a heartening twist; the movie starts by wallowing in Cosmogirl-fueled boy-craziness, but finishes as an unexpectedly touching paean to friendship (with some surprisingly down-to-earth suggestions about romance). Roberts and JoJo are a charming duo, eager to be older than they are, but in the end growing up no faster than they need to. Also featuring Bruce Spence, known to some viewers as the Gyro Captain from The Road Warrior and to others as the voice of a shark in Finding Nemo. --Bret Fetzer

2009-05-09 - Aquamarine this item said in the inquiry "like a new" i differ because it's have a various segment frozen, i need to change this movie. please let me know
thumbs up from this mom 
2009-01-12 - My daughters (ages 7 and 10) really like this movie, and so do I. There is something for everyone -- romance, friendship, courage, mom-preteen daughter interaction, mermaids, cute boys, music, fun in the sun, etc! very entertaining, some great messages. I wish they would come out with Aquamarine 2.
New Customer 
2009-01-06 - I received the purchase right away. I thought the movie was very cute. However, there were a few words that I thought were inappropriate for that type of movie. Other than that, I would have given the item 5 stars.
bought this for my niece 
2008-09-15 - My niece is 8 years old and just loves this movie. It has been on TV but she loves it so much I decided to buy her her own copy. My daughter who is 19 also seems to like this movie. I think they both secrectly want to be mermaids.
Fantasy
