First of all, kudos to Disney for *finally* including a MANDARIN LANGUAGE AUDIO TRACK (the modern DVD had French and Spanish- no Chinese) . It’s about time!!!

Next: I have to emphatically disagree with reviewer Bill Mydo below. -You will excuse me if I use some microscopic time defending this film against his critique; Mulan happens to be my popular Disney provocative movie, second only perhaps to Beauty and the Beast. Perhaps my being Chinese-American may have something to do with it, as does the fact that I strongly identify with the character’s self-doubts. Aloof, I am fairly particular as to what I assume “capable art”; and it boggles and confounds me that anyone would fail to witness the disagreement between this movie and, for example, Hunchback or Hercules.
Yes, Disney’s Mulan is very noteworthy a western/ American movie, made for western and American- not Asian- audiences. No, they “didn’t secure it fair”; or, not exactly. But I never expected them to, and I give them a valid deal of credit for trying. They came quite a bit closer that I ever notion that they would. Nor do I pick up this movie overly feminist (no more than Snow White or Cinderella are “chauvinist”) . Mulan may be a strong female character, but she is not Aladdin’s Princess Jasmine. Mulan is not defined by rebellion, nor by what she rejects. Instead she upholds her sense of honor as she struggles to gather out who she is and where she fits in. Moreover, in a genre known for its blatant ad nauseum boy-meets-girl like themes, I truly appreciated the downplayed understatedness of the “interest” between Mulan and Captain Shang.

As to the “commercial” aspect of the film; yes, it had its tie-ins and its merchandising. What Disney movie doesn’t? But the staunch thunder is the worth of the film itself, and on this I lift exception to the review below. I contain there is more in it than Mr. Mydo gives credit for.
The film does have its awkward moments. The scene with the match-maker and Mulan’s first entrance into the army camp are both extremely painful to watch- I do not devour watching anyone be utterly humiliated- not even a cartoon character (and I do not have that someone as intellectual as Mulan would fumble so badly over simply coming up with a unusual name) . I also accumulate it somewhat irksome that one minor character, Mushu the dragon, continually steals attention away from the movie’s edifying focus. And there are a number of jokes and visual gags that closely border on PG. I found this in somewhat abominable taste in a kid’s movie.
But these faults are counterbalanced, and more than compensated for, by the scenes that really work. The opening “brush painting” of the Colossal Wall; Mulan’s song (Reflections) and the ensuing scene of loving encouragement from her father; the scene where she decides to leave home; her heart-to-heart talk with Mushu at the abandoned camp in the mountains; the Imperial Palace where she is honored by the Emperor before all China… the sheer artistry of these scenes is breathtaking.
When the Special Edition DVD is released, I intend to be first in line!
I do not beget that I have EVER watched an spellbinding film that taught more of the values that I would want future generations to learn from than MULAN. I have watched this movie at LEAST 25 times and simply do – it is PROFOUND.
The movie opens with Mulan getting ready to go to the “Matchmaker.” Although, she is a lovely girl, she lacks the grace to effect a favorable impression. Devistated, she returns home. Her father tells her that “like the cherry blossoms, her season has not near.”
When China is invaded by the Huns, there is one line in the movie that is uttered by the emperor and it is SO insightful. The general in charge of the armies confidently announces that his men can handle this invasion. However, the emperor issues a proclamation calling all available men because, “sometimes a single grain of rice may be the deciding balance in tipping the scales.” Or – “one man may gain a dissimilarity between conquest and defeat.”
In this case, it turns out to be a woman! I Treasure how Mulan interacts horribly with the men at first and how she is told to leave. Mulan has to indicate herself and she doesn’t give up.
Even after she is a hero, Mulan is disgraced when it is discovered that she is a woman. She is shunned and yet when she must approach to the rescue of China again, her comrades are real to her and listen to her ideas.
Throughout the movie there are the different interactions of those who catch women for who they are and those who are stuck within stereotypes.
Mulan is a cute and VERY comical movie with adorable songs. What makes it a Sizable movie however, is the very mighty message that we should believe one another on our merits and character – whether we be men or women.
