That's because this movie was true to the original story. She was supposed to be really young (age 10-14ish years old). Go read the play before going off on "that bitch" before I bite my thumb at you. - @Thursday, May 16, 2013 4:21 AM

Yeah, and people say Yuri Senkevich looks like Zac Efron! Although, Yuri is definitely gorgeous. You can take a look at him by typing in YouTube: "Rusalochka (The Little Mermaid) English Subtitles 5/6" in the minute of 1:28. - @Saturday, May 11, 2013 1:01 AM
