The Little Mermaid made a splash at the global box office with a $163.8 million total on Memorial Day weekend. The live-action adaptation of the beloved 1989 animated feature film made $117.5 million domestically and $68.3 million internationally over the four-day weekend.

The latest live-action Disney film had the fifth best Memorial Day opening weekend, falling only behind X-Men: The Last Stand, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Pirates of the Caribbean: At World’s End, and Top Gun: Maverick. It surpassed titles like Solo: A Star Wars Story, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and Fast & Furious 6.

On Rotten Tomatoes, the movie received a 67% score from critics, but audiences have bolstered it with a 95% viewer score. Its success also overcame review bombs on sites like IMDB, which have been largely aimed at Disney’s casting a Black actress as Ariel and for changing certain aspects of the film through a modern lens.

Directed by Rob Marshall, The Little Mermaid stars Halle Bailey as Ariel, Jonah Hauer-King as Eric, Melissa McCarthy as Ursula, Javier Bardem as King Triton, Noma Dumezweni as the Queen, and the voices of Daveed Diggs as Sebastian, Jacob Tremblay as Flounder, and Awkwafina as Scuttle.
