Mulan is one of the most popular Chinese literary heroines. Her journey inspired both the animated movie and this live action movie. Many people expected a live action remake in the style of 2017 Beauty and the beast or 2019 Aladdin, so ended up dissapointed. I liked this movie though. The costumes and sets look very lovely and the score is very good, with some score of the animated Mulan being in it. The dialogue can be a bit bad and sound stilted. Bori Khan and Xian Niang could have been a bit more interesting and the confrontation more intense, though the actress of Xian Niang is very good . Liu Yufei as Mulan brings both vulnerability and loveliness to her. Though this movie doesn't quite possess the charm and soul of the animated Mulan, it is good. Overall, decently done Mulan. 6/10.
