So, 'There Are Mermaids in LA' is a quirky comedy directed by Summer Benowitz that hits you with this oddball charm. The film centers around Cassie, who's stuck in this stagnant relationship and gets pulled into a world thatās as surreal as it is funny. Her journey to spice things upālike reupholstering a lampāfeels almost metaphorical for her longing for change. The pacing is a bit offbeat, which suits its whimsical nature, and the mysterious silent mermaid character adds this layer of intrigue. The performances are playful, with a touch of absurdity that keeps everything light. It's distinctly LA, with its blend of mundane and magical, and those practical effects on the mermaid? They have a certain charm that you don't see in the usual CGI-heavy fare.
