The Lure (2015 film) edit
- ... that the 2015 Polish horror film The Lure was partly developed as a retelling of The Little Mermaid?

The article has been recently expanded. It is written from a neutral POV. There are appropriate inline citations. While the hook is cited, I don't think that the wording of the article and the hook reflect the intent of the original wording in the source. I think there is something a little ambiguous about the wording of the hook and the article as it stands now. Your article says that the director wanted to "build on a retelling of the Little Mermaid," and that isn't exactly clear. Is it building on a different retelling, or is it retelling the Little Mermaid itself? I like the wording in the original source that the director wanted to make a movie that "reinvented" the tale of the Little Mermaid. Maybe that's just me being a little bit picky, but I think that that section could be more clear, and the hook more "hooky."Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 21:04, 23 June 2016 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'll pay that - did ponder how to write it. Just saw the film a couple of days ago and was enthused...how about ALT1... that the 2015 Polish horror film The Lure is a reimagining of The Little Mermaid? 0r ALT2 ... that the 2015 Polish horror film The Lure was intended as a reimagining of The Little Mermaid?

I think the article looks good under ALT1. I slightly changed the wording of the sentence in the article to match the hook. Thanks for getting back so fast! Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 19:00, 24 June 2016 (UTC)
