Summary: Million Dollar Mermaid
Comment: Esther Williams is such a delight. I love her films. While visiting my uncle a few years back, he shared several of them with me. If you enjoy music, humor, love, and life in general- check it out. The show tunes are fabulous and the color version is really neat.
You will be pleasantly surprised by this classic film. It is one of my favorite amazon purchases. No matter what age you are- It is a must see movie event. Watch all of her films - they are wonderful.

Summary: An Esther Williams Classic.
Comment: It's great to be able to finally own a DVD of this picture. As it had been a while since I had watched it, I forgot that it really did not have many underwater shots (except for the tank scene) - most consisted of dives and water ballet taken from the surface.The big water-show scene the film is famous for is indeed magnificent! Way over the top- it makes an impression every time.

Summary: What a disappointment!
Comment: This is a cheap made in asia transfer to DVD, certainly not worth the price. Advertised subtittles are not included.
I wonder if MGM is aware of that release and if their copyrights were properly protected.
I would suggest that Amazon take this item off their catalog.
Conclusion: don't get fooled, don't buy!

Summary: Fantastic
Comment: While the person I got this for had wanted it but bought it on their own already, they stated this copy was better and less costly than the one they had purchased.

Summary: A well deserved homage to Anette Kellerman!
Comment: Esther Williams was lovable and irresistible in this film but if you add the presence of Busby Berkeley, the talented Mervin Le Roy, a very human and extremely imaginative Mature and the presence of that giant actor as Walter Pigdeon was, you will obtain a very worthy movie without major pretensions.
The sublime sequences of the aquatic ballet and choreographic numbers are superb and belong to the cinema mythology.
