Full Trailer For Stephen Chow's THE MERMAID Is Weirdly Serious ... And Not Very Good.

Whenever Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle director Stephen Chow releases a new film it's something of an event. One of the most beloved entertainers on the face of the planet, Chow has an enviable selection of truly great films on his resume and his fan base is massive and global as a result. Though, that being said, Chow is also no stranger to perplexing decisions and bad CGI as well. And both of those elements are very much on display in the full trailer for his upcoming effort The Mermaid.

After releasing a pair of charming and very funny - even in translation - teasers for his latest picture the full trailer for The Mermaid has just arrived and it's ... well ... it's just kind of bleak. And the CGI is pretty horrible more often than not. And suddenly my enthusiasm has all drained away.
