This is a big problem with all live-action adaptations of animated movies/TV shows, race swapped or not.

Animation affords chunks of frames to exaggerated facial expressions that even the best actors/actresses cannot really emulate. Doesn't help that most performers these days have perpetual dead NPC look in their eyes.

with this on its moreso the eyes on "Ariel" are spaced like a bovine. Add in the red seaweed dreads and its more like Old Greg than Ariel.

She's got the Innsmouth look. Guess the Deep Ones have been bumping uglies with their neighbors in the sea.

Carl Benjamin (Sargon of Akkad) made a really pertinent point in his breakdown of Prey about how the actress could play the role perfectly, but the soft, rounded features and qualities of her appearance show that she's never experienced any kind of hardship her entire life. It makes it impossible to imagine her as a pre-modern tribeswoman.

I remember one of my history teachers said Monty Pythons Holy Grail was oddly accurate as the only clean characters were nobility and the commoners were all covered in dirt and shit.

It also allows color and aesthetic options that live action cannot hope to achieve.

Such as here where the blue of the water and redness of the hair hair massively oppose one another to draw your eye directly where they want it. Same with the shadowing drawing your eyes to the boat in the top image.

Whereas the live action is just washed out and boring, your eyes cannot focus as easily on where the film wants them to be and they instead wander to judgemental details.

YMS's review of the "live action" Lion King is hilarious, pointing out how lifeless it is compared to the original.
