Clevercell Very disappointing...

Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Sarita Rafferty There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

andrew muhling My sweetheart is a big Disney fan. So over the handful of years we've been together I've found my self watching a good deal of animation i would otherwise have ignored. Moana, Coco and Ratatouille left me with an unexpected sense of joy. Stylish stories with a quiet moral woven into the back ground. Mulan, though set in China, feels like a cheap Chinese restaurant in California. If you are making a film set in a foreign culture? You should do your leg work and get the feel right. Simply putting the family name first on a character and making some assumptions about honour does not cut it for Chinese. This movie felt like a good B grade western with a thin Chinese theme pasted over the top. Then there's the message. The movie is obviously trying to put a woman up as a heroine. A "lady triumphs and wins the respect of the men" happy ending story. But really the only message here, is that if you're a woman and want to be judged as an equal, you need to be as good as three men to even stand a chance. Add to this some expected cheesy Disney moments and Eddie Murphy being a little over the top and I was left with a passable but hollow feeling.

cmhuber8 I loved this movie when I was younger and I still love watching it with my girls now.

Minahzur Rahman I actually got this film on VHS and saw it, and it was an interesting film or story shall we say. They made a sequel afterwards, but that wasn't required, and had the producers not done that then the Mulan film would've held more weight, and that is why I don't rate Mulan as good as the Lion King, Aladdin and even Hercules. The characters introduced in this film were good – the best was that fiery red dragon named as MUSHU!!! it was that dragon why this film was so successful.

John Baek Disney did it again. With the right blend of humor, romance, action, and most of all, emotion. Watching this now is quite the different experience than when I first saw it as a child. I understand more fully the cultural and familial obstacles presented against Mulan. I noticed some things that I didn't catch the first viewing. Again, Mulan is a tale of identity, about trying to find out and discover who you are. Like Hercules, The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Frozen, you name it, Disney is all about identity and rising against the norm and what society expects of you. Obviously, as it's a Western commercial production, it makes many cross-cultural flaws -- the characters have too-exaggerated facial features to supposed to look Chinese, for instance.It being Disney, its soundtrack is amazing, we all know "I'll Make a Man out of You" and "Reflection," just to name two. It has a great voice acting cast (i.e. Eddie Murphy as Mushu), and it ends very happily for all the good guys. Some things are a little rushed, I thought, towards the end concerning certain characters but still, Mulan is a film you need to see, no matter what your age. It will impel you to strike forth against the societal construct we know as "normal," that is, to be like everybody else. Who gives a damn about what other people think? You only have one life. Make the most of it, carpe diem.Everything taken into account, Mulan I'd say surpasses Hercules, but lies below The Lion King. Worth watching a second (or first) time when you're at least of high school age.
