Mermaid Review: Surrealist “Florida Man” Horror Comedy Fails To Excite

The movie Mermaid is unusual, and while it’s not perfect, it achieves what it sets out to do. Unlike many recent blockbusters that have been criticized for dull colors, Mermaid is strikingly vibrant. Its depiction of Florida is visually stunning, using a rich, saturated color scheme. Just as The Batman made Gotham City feel like a character itself with its dark and moody visuals, Mermaid truly brings Florida to life as a central element of the story. The film is a warm and visually inviting experience.
