CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com appears on “The Morning Mess” with Dan Baker on WBGR-FM (Monroe, Wisconsin) on May 25th, reviewing “The Little Mermaid,” Walt Disney Studios live action reboot. In theaters on May 26th.

The under-the-sea mermaid princess Ariel (Halle Bailey) is curious about the non-ocean earth and its inhabitants, and gets her opportunity to infiltrate when human Prince Eric (Jonah Hauer-King) is in a shipwreck and she saves him from drowning. Her father King Triton (Javier Bardem) forbids her to follow up on the rescue, so the evil sea witch Ursula (Melissa McCarthy) helps her out by casting a spell that make Ariel human. The catch is she has three days to get the prince to kiss her, and Ursula has taken away her siren song voice. Luckily, she has Sebastian the Crab (voice of Daveed Diggs) and seagull Scuttle (Awkwafina), to help her get to that kiss.
