This lady has been given a poor, unfortunate reputation.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for the past three decades, you are most likely very familiar with the widely popular animated, which just hit theaters in live-action form on May 26. The story chronicles the adventures of a young mermaid named Ariel, who desperately wants to explore what life is like above the depths of the ocean. This desire leads her to make a deal withwho grants her the ability to temporarily become human for three days.

Obviously, the terms of such an agreement are not ideal, and it’s easy to cast Ursula into an unflattering light based on this rather dark proposition alone. Then, of course, there’s the fact that she’s been seemingly banished from King Triton’s kingdom, presumably for a good reason, though no specifics are given throughout the movie. The bottom line is that we, as a society, have unanimously associated Ursula with being evil. Ask pretty much anyone, and they will agree that Ursula is bad.

Sure, she's trying to paint herself as more of a do-gooder than she actually is, but doesn't everyone trying to pitch themselves to potential clients do that? She could've chosen not to mention the possible downside to the agreement, but she didn't, which implies some sort of moral code.
