Simple, innocent and romantically fun. A good family movie to enjoy.

Fun movie
It's no Splash or Aquamarine
Fishtales is a 2007 romantic fantasy comedy starring Kelly Brooks and Billy Zane. A professor from Oxford University named Thomas Bradley(Zane) is a widowed father who travels to Greece along with his daughter. His daughter later befriends a beautiful woman named Neried(Brooks) who happens to be a Mermaid. At night Neried transforms into a human and meets Thomas. When Thomas and Neried recite a Greek poem together the two fall in love. Will Neried become a human in the end?.
Overall its a silly film which took me 15 years to see as I thought it was some sort of fever dream. Kelly Brooks is a very gorgeous woman and both her and Billy Zane were a couple during the filming of this movie.
If you love Mermaid movies then you might like it. The synching with the actors talking is very obvious as they look like they are been dubbed over.
A very original comedy with some gutsy and very funny performances
Although the plot is somewhat predictable, this is actually a very original comedy with some gutsy and very funny performances - especially from the strong supporting cast, that includes a very diverse range of actors. A spirited performance also by Kelly Brook. Her transformation from the haughty, dignified mermaid goddess into the whimpering lovesick fool - who stalks her love interest by camouflaging herself with a bush - is very funny. In fact, this modern Greek love tale would have been almost touching, if it would not have been so chaotic and comical.
