Disney's "The Little Mermaid" live-action remake came up a bit short this Memorial Day weekend. While it did gross a decent amount of money, it's not quite the blockbuster the studio was hoping for, failing to reach the $100 million mark for the 3-day weekend, and earning only the fifth holiday weekend of all time.
Read more about the weekend box-office after the jump.
"The Little Mermaid" opened with $95.5 million from 4,320 theaters, and is expected to finish the extended holiday weekend with $118 million (fifth of all time). The film is also off to a disappointing start overseas, where it raked in only $68.3 million from 51 markets. The lowest market is China, with just $2.5 million. The film received mixed reviews from critics (67% on Rotten Tomatoes), but moviegoers mostly enjoyed it ("A" CinemaScore).
