Profile of Mulan

The mood of Mulan is feel good, touching, and humorous. The plot centers around a folk hero, hidden identities, and soldiers. It is an adventure, family, and animation movie. Stylistically, Mulan stars a strong female character. It takes place, at least partly, in the mountains. The setting is China. Mulan happens in ancient times. The musical score is show tunes. It is drawn from a folktale. Mulan is known for being a modern classic, a blockbuster, and an award winner. It is especially suggested for kids and a family outing.

Summary of Mulan

Disney fashions a modern-day icon of girl power with its animated adaptation of the 2,000-year-old Chinese folktale Mulan. When barbarous Huns attack ancient China, the fiercely independent Mulan (voiced by Ming-Na Wen) defies tradition by disguising herself as a man in order to take her ailing father's place in the Imperial Army. With the help of Mushu (voiced by the resilient and newly kid-friendly Eddie Murphy), a wisecracking guardian dragon sent by her ancestors for protection, Mulan trains in boot camp and then heads off to face the brutal Hun leader Shan-Yu (voiced by Miguel Ferrer)--all the while struggling to keep her gender identity a secret. Chock full of the usual Disney delights--breathtaking visuals, catchy songs, and an inspirational protagonist of courage and conviction--Mulan is a welcome addition to the studio's annals of classic animation.

Entertainment Weekly

It took long enough, but Disney has finally come up with an animated heroine who's a good role model and a funky, arresting personality at the same time. Full Review

It has an awful moral lesson.

Disney had to even out the numbers - after the making of 'Beauty and the Beast' that is degrading for men, you've got to a film that is degrading for women. Under the pretense of "A girl can do anything a guy can do, and even better than him" you... Read and rate it
