Trivia
Amy Yasbeck went through extensive physical training in preparing to play Madison for the underwater swimming shoots when in her mermaid tail costume.

Goofs
At the end of the original "Splash", Madison tells Allen that once he jumps in the water with her, he can never go back to his old life, which presumably would include living out of water. But in this movie, not only are they living out of the water on an island, they make a trip to New York.

Crazy credits
Amy Yasbeck playing "hide and seek" with Salty the dolphin in the opening credits.

Disappointing compared to a great film

I adore the 1984 film Splash. It was irresistible, charming, funny and romantic. I admit I wasn't expecting Splash Too to top it in any way, but I was expecting it to be watchable in some way. Alas, it wasn't. Splash Too is the anti-thesis of Splash. It is forgettable, charmless, unfunny and mawkish.

I will give some credit, the locations are quite nice. Also Todd Waring and Amy Yasbeck give decent performances, however they don't have the beautiful chemistry that Tom Hanks and Daryl Hannah had and they are further disadvantaged by the fact that the characters are caricatures of their former selves. The direction is also very plodding, the script is flat and unfunny, the story is predictable and lazy and ignores some of the events of that of Splash, the pace is sloppy and I agree the theme song is abysmal.

In conclusion, very disappointing, seeing how wonderful Splash was. 2/10 Bethany Cox
