Two best friends get exactly what they fish for in Aquamarine, a laugh-out-loud hilarious comedy about friendship! Emma Roberts, Sara Paxton and pop sensation JoJo star in an adventure that's "the sweetest treat since Princess Diaries!" (Yahoo! Movies) It's the end of summer and Claire (Roberts) and Hailey (JoJo) have a major problem. In just five days, Hailey's family is moving halfway around the world! These girls need a major miracle, and they get one in the form of Aquamarine, a beautiful mermaid who washes ashore in a late summer storm. Sweet but clueless to the ways of romance, she offers to grant the girls one wish if they help her find the boy of her dreams. But when they attempt to reel in the cute local lifeguard, the result is something none of them expect and they discover that sometimes what you wish for isn't what you really want after all!

A delightful summer movie for kids and tweens.
A modern day retelling of "The Little Mermaid" and based on the novella by Alice Hoffmann, Aquamarine tells the story of two tween girls, Hayley and Claire, who are trying to enjoy their last summer together before the former has to move half way around the world. Thinking only a miracle could prevent the girls from seperating, they incidentally get one when a boisterous mermaid named Aquamarine washes up in a swimming pool. Aquamarine has only three days on land to prove to her father that love exists before she is forced to marry a merman she does not love. Thinking that the way to true love is a cute teenage boy, Hayley and Claire decide to try to set the young mermaid up with a cute and well meaning young life guard named Raymond, for if they do, Aquamarine will agree to give them a wish, which is all the girls need to keep them both together.Aquarmarine is a fun summer flick that is very of its time, but surprisingly still holds up today. It might not have the censorship that we are typically used to for modern day children's films (there's light swearing, brief mentions of sex, and puberty) but it is still a great film for children. The three teenage protagonists are well meaning and have a great repour together. In general it's very rare to find films that are centered around female freidnship, especially when it doesn't involve copious amounts of backstabbing or gossipping. I highly recommend this movie for girls ages 7 and up, and even some teens and adults might find enjoy this film as well.

I love this movie otherwise I would not have bought it. Who doesn't love an alternative love story with a mermaid?
