Watch The Mermaid free on iQiYi

The Mermaid (Chinese: 美人鱼) is a 2016 Chinese-Hong Kong science fiction fantasy romantic comedy film directed, co-written, and co-produced by Stephen Chow. A beautiful mermaid (Jelly Lin) falls for a developer (Deng Chao) who threatens the ecosystem of her species. The film has already broken mainland opening-day records, and is sure to do swimmingly at home and on foreign shores. It's grossed a ridiculous $431 million. A relatively straightforward comic love story/environmental parable, it's a sharper bit of whimsy than CJ7 and less weighed down with mythology than Journey To The West. It was released in China on February 8, 2016, now available on Chinese TV website iQiYi, all iQiYi VIP members can watch The Mermaid free.

Synopsis
The Mermaid defies the time-worn nature of its material, concocting pure enchantment with the director's own blend of nutty humor, intolerable cruelty and unabashed sweetness. Like an ecological "Lust, Caution," this contempo fairy tale about a mermaid who falls for the evil developer she's been sent to seduce and assassinate is strikingly relevant to China, beset as it is with myriad environmental crises.
