From Stephen Chow, director of Kung Fu Hustle, comes The Mermaid: the comedic action-filled phenomenon that has become China’s biggest film of all time! When greedy real estate tycoon, Liu Xuan (Deng Chao), buys up a pristine coastal enclave known as Green Gulf, he plans to turn it into the hottest property on the market. But Green Gulf harbors a secret: it’s home to the last surviving mermaids, and they are done playing nice. Their plan: send the beautiful Shan (Lin Yun) to seduce Liu and stop the destruction of their beloved oceans. But when their plan goes belly-up, neither humans nor mermaids are willing to back down, and a final, fatal frenzy becomes inevitable. (Sony Pictures UK)

What the film lacks in terms of story, which is somewhat simply moralizing, it gains in visuals, which are incredibly captivating towards the end. What the poster for this film presents is highlighted at the end, and it is beautiful, it is epoch-making, it is simply magnificent, and I could not take my eyes off those tricks.
