I'll tell you why so serious

There are better movies of two hours length. I loved the actress'performance.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

The story-telling is good with flashbacks.The film is both funny and heartbreaking. You smile in a scene and get a soulcrushing revelation in the next.

This movie that Disney made for TV and was possibly making into a TV series is so 1980s cute! It's wholesome and funny AND you get to see Allen and Madison the mermaid again! It's been so long since it aired as The Disney Sunday Movie (1988) and Disney made so many of those that were GREAT every week! I really do hope for myself, my children and all the fans they release this and other "forgotten" movies they made in 80's on DVD or Blu-Ray! It's been 30 years now. SO MUCH FUN! BRING "SPLASH, TOO" TO DVD! RELEASE "DISNEY SUNDAY MOVIE'S" ON DVD-BLU_RAY! A+

Now I came across this movie during a period of channel surfing and I tell you I wish I had just surfed on. This is terrible. I have not seen the original for many years but remember it in a much fonder light than this drivel. What we have here is a pants film with a poor story, wooden acting and sloppy direction. How this ever got the green light is beyond me. You get character TV actors who are not worthy of gracing a movie filling roles filled by actors who on the whole went on to bigger and better things (sorry Daryl Hannah) and doing an extremely poor job of it. The script is worse than your average TV sit-com and the direction is just TV plodder like. The supporting characters have little to no value and are so flat I think I will coin the term one dimensional for them. Avoid at all times.

I saw Splash Too on family channel nearly eight years ago it was a double feature they played the original Splash with Tom Hanks & Darryl Hannah. When they showed the sequel it looked pretty good, replacements Todd Waring & Amy Yasbeck did a great job portraying the man and his mermaid wife.Amy Yasbeck's performance as Madison was just as amazing as Darryl Hannah's she made the character comical and touching. Four years ago Allen Bauer (Waring) met and fell in love with a beautiful mermaid named Madison (Yasbeck), six days after meeting they got married and now they live on an island near Cape Cod. Allen misses his brother Freddie (Scott) and through a special gift Madison has they're able to see him through a pool of water as it turns out Bauer Produce is in some trouble so they go back to New York on the condition that she can soak her legs in salt water during the full moon.Allen & Madison buy a house and try to act like a normal couple while she becomes friends with neighbor Fern Hooten (Taggart) who might know her secret. Madison's friend Salty the dolphin is held prisoner in captivity by Dr. Otto Benus (Blankfield) and she sets out to help him, after a big argument at a party Madison returns to Cape Cod and Allen begins to feel like something's missing. One night she returns home and they begin to rekindle their love.they rescue Salty and he goes back to his home. After seeing Splash Too I enjoyed it as much as the original 1984 hit.

This Disney sequel to the 1984 hit 'Splash' is a lot better than a lot of people think. And while Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah chose not to reprise their roles as mermaid & man couple Alan and Madison, this does not take anything away from the film itself.When we last left Allen and Madison, they had just left New York to live a life of secrecy on a deserted island. It's here, that Madison (Amy Yasbeck) shows Allen (Todd Waring) how she can view other people's lives, simply by running her index finger in a circle motion in water. This makes Allen sad, and they both return to New York to live.Here, Madison (played by Yasbeck, from 'The Mask', 'Problem Child' and 'Problem Child 2') finds out that Alan's boss is using dolphins as guinea pigs in some company's testing experiment. She tries desperately to save Salty the Dolphin and enlists the help of Alan, and Fern, Alan's boss's wife.This is a wonderful fantasy tail (hehe - that's me being clever!) about one of the eightie's favorite film couples. In my opinion, Amy did a way better job than Daryl Hannah ever did! Dody Goodman ('Grease', 'Grease 2', 'Splash') returns as the kooky recepetionist, while John Candy ('Uncle Buck', 'Home Alone', 'Cool Runnings') and Eugene Levy (American Pie) also neglected to return.I always loved this movie as a kid, and while it was only a TV movie, that was not supposed to be as good as the original, I thought it was sooooooo much better! Amy's fantastic, the dolphin is cool and... and... it just rocks...okay?
