Director Elizabeth Allen sets a nicely easy-breezy tone for Aquamarine, but her comic timing is sometimes shaky and she sadly cannot overcome the weaknesses of the script.

The movie scores a major victory in reaching its audience with the all-too-important message that they are fine just the way they are.

Kids seem to love the recognizable 'tween stars, but for the rest of us it's sort of like the cotton-candy scene%u2014we're not sure whether to eat it or rub our faces in it.

As shameless as trashy cookie-cutter studios movies will ever get.

Unfortunately, the performances are often clunky and the art direction and CG are wanting, so anyone over the age of eight is likely to find it cheap around the edges. One for very little mermaids.

The performances are charming, particularly JoJo Levesque, who is rapidly becoming the new Lindsay Lohan (only in a good way).

This fantasy comedy should entertain its pre-teen female market -- and repel those silly superficial boys (swoon).

For supervising grownups, its giddy leanings will induce seasickness.

It’s silly and trivial but harmless enough for undemanding teenage girls, and Roberts and Levesque make a vivacious team.

JoJo can't act-act, and the same goes for everyone else in Aquamarine who isn't a dolphin.

Aquamarine is pleasant enough and perfect for its target demographic, but it's a run of the mill movie that wouldn't stand out among the various cable TV offerings for its audience.

It’s not going to win an Oscar or anything. But I liked how it was actually made for tween girls.

Cross the Gidget flicks with a sudsy fish-out-of-water tale and -- poof -- you'll get this 'tween fantasy, which only lands with a small splash.

An amusing, sweet 'n' spunky friendship tale - if you're a 'tween. If you're older, this may be too soggy and sappy for you.
