Disney's Mulan (2020) [DVD]

Product Information

Contrary to most reviews/opinions, I actually prefer this live action version of Mulan compared to the original Mulan.

The director was New Zealander Niki Caro, who gave us another empowered young woman, in her 2002 drama ‘Whale Rider’.

The Emperor offers Mulan Chi Fu's job within his counsel but Mulan respectfully wishes nothing more than to go home. Mulan hurries into town where her mother Freda Foh Shen and grandmother June Foray have been waiting for her.The look of the film, full of magnificently rich colour and light, is spectacular ~ the huge sets were seriously expensive. He relays how he knows she ran away from home and impersonated a soldier and that, despite her seemingly treasonous actions, she has saved all of China from the Hun threat. As Shang and Shan Yu fight, Chien-Po grabs the Emperor and escapes by sliding down a rope adorned with lanterns. Within the city, Shang and his army are welcomed as heroes and march in a parade towards the palace.

Beautiful and clever Mulan finds an opportunity to prove her worth outside of her tradition-bound society when, disguised as "Ping," she bravely takes her father's place in the Imperial Army and sets off with the other recruits for military training. Shang thanks Mulan for saving them, but her injuries from Shan Yu's sword catch up to her and she collapses.Back home, Mulan presents her father with the gifts from the Emperor in hopes that they will bring honor to their family. Upon discovering that Mulan has left, grandmother Fa says a prayer to the ancestors to watch over her.
