Horrible movie. The plot is trash, this is nothing like the original. Mulan is a Mary-Sue with jedi powers for no reason, just like Rey in Star Wars latest movies.

Mulan, the main character is bland and does not have the character development that makes us care as the original. Side characters are rushed and there is very little development. New characters that replaced the original are simply not good and took away from the experience. The movie is bland with very little humor and bored me.

Pro: Scenery
Cons: Story

Would not recommend paying full price. Simply watch when it comes out for normal viewing on Disney.

This live action version of Mulan is pure propaganda for the CCP. It lacks the heart and energy of the cartoon. It sends the wrong message to girls. I am glad I did not watch this in the theater. Avoid this trash!

Amazing, show the moral and ethics value. Great movie to share with families, especially for my daughter. #womenempowerment #societyacceptance #workhardpayoff

Despise Mulan gender and the struggle of a women place during society, Mulan work hard and recollected herself to stay true to herself against the odd. Mulan was loyal, brave, and truth not just for herself but those that she care and love. It is great that the dragon was not in this film, no need of comedy. Comedy will destroy the real message of Mulan. I also like how there is no need of romance. Romance will blurred the message of Mulan value. Pathos and logos: responsibilities, respect, and families value.

With a movie that mentions honor so much it lacks it all together, this a such a disgrace to Disney's original adaptation of Mulan. None of the true meaning of the original is here and it's just an soulless cash grab with brainless action.

Soulless, sterile corporate produce to pander to Chinese markets. Disney has fallen so low. No ability to capture soul of movies generations past. Avoid only watching if it's FREE.

It felt like its own film while also having feelings very similar to the original. Having been excited about this movie for a long time, I waited all the way to midnight just to watch it release on Disney+. I then proceeded to immediately love it. The acting is fantastic, the visuals are astounding, the action sequences are so cool to watch and the overall story is still incredibly moving. It stands well on its own to the point where the lack of Mushu and the songs (though some songs do appear in the score of the film in several scenes) isn't really noticed. While I do have a lot of love and respect for the original, this new Mulan stands on its own and I love it maybe even as much as its animated predecessor. It was very much worth the money spent and way better than these reviews give it credit for. What a wonderful film. Thank you Disney for sharing this new adaptation of Mulan with the world, I am very grateful. Expand

Critics really missed the mark on this one. No mushu, no songs, just a watered down and boring Mulan sprinkled with familiar superhero tropes.

The movie is way different from the animated series. The fact that they removed all the favorable characters from animated and no original songs makes this movie questionable. Story is very dull as well as the new characters. This movie has no charm and lacks jokes. There isn’t much back story to them. The reason this movie failed is it is trying to appease China and Western Audience. The word Monguls can’t even be used as it would be offensive. Milan is like a “Jedi” with her “chi.” Movie is ruined with having a “Mary sue.” Having to spend an extra $30 plus Disney+ is outrageous! Expand

Had some emotional moments, but this came over more like a cheesy cheap remake of an old tale rather than living up to the opportunity that Mulan could have provided to girls like it did for so many in the 90s kicking off the girl power movement.

The acting was terrible all around and horribly edited. If you want to sum up the movie in one scene, watch the emperor scene right after he gets saved and the ropes get undone by Mulan (close to the end).

So much potential, a real shame. I’ll stick with the classics.

The original was full of life and spirit, while this film goes for a gritty and rather soulless approach, which is not what audiences in America asked for. Maybe Chinese audiences did (since this film was clearly made to pander to them), but even then from what I heard they loved the songs, Li Shang, and Mushu too, who are both absent in this film. I appreciate Disney trying to actually make notable changes to its remakes for once, but this is just a boring slog of a movie that lacks any major enjoyment. Expand

a film that gives a new face but that face is totally tiring, the new face leaves this film as something good to watch before going to sleep, so you close your eyes and don’t watch it.
