Main characters in both films
Ariel: Like Giselle Ariel is a lovesick mermaid who dreams of being part of the human world and falls for a sailor named Eric who is a prince. She has a statue (like Giselle) of Eric and her father King Triton thinks that humans are barbarians.
Giselle: Amy Adams who sings, voices and plays this character is a dead ringer to Ariel por the way she acts and sings. She has a statue of Robert and like Ariel she is obsessed with finding true love(yep princesses they have to get what they want). Instead of Giselle being a mermaid of course she becomes a real life woman in NYC and instead of falling for a prince she falls for a divorce attorney named Robert Philip(aka Patrick Dempsey who I quote is one hottie in this movie).
The main characters amor interests
Ariel’s amor interest is Prince Eric who is an 18 ano old sailor who falls for Ariel(im guessing it’s the cantar voice as like Giselle her voice is enchanting) while Giselle’s real true amor is a single father who works as a Divorce Attorney in NYC named Robert Philip who isn’t the kind of man that would fall in amor with someone in a dia as he is quiet and takes life for what it is.
Every time I watch this and The Little Mermaid I always wonder did Kevin Lima hire Amy Adams and Patrick Dempsey because they are dead ringers to Ariel & Eric because if you look at these filmes you will notice that they are so identical. Only difference is that Giselle’s hair colour is morango blonde(Adams hair colour is this colour) and Patrick’s hair colour is dark brown(but its done the same style as Prince Eric’s in Enchanted).
