There are few greater sins a movie can commit than to be so nondescript, characterless, and lacking in substance that it just ends up being boring. This critic can muster a compliment for almost any motion picture, and, admittedly, I do have one or two half-hearted ones to offer writer/director Tyler Cornack's Mermaid. But despite an inviting premise, strong cast, and alleged horror-comedy leanings, the film is not horrific, it is not comedic, and it somehow makes watching a guy fall for a monstrous sea-creature tedious.
