The Mulan movie 2020 was trash. It was like watching a quick compilation of the original but shittier. There’s no storyline, you just jump from place to place and then there’s a little scene; it’s like a Highschool project but a kid had to rush it last minute. And the physics of how some things were was so impossible, and the physiology and biochemistry didn’t even make sense. They didn’t even have MUSHU yet they can have some fantasy magical protagonist BS. The final scenes were literally taken from The Rise of Phoenixes settting, not that it mattered but it seemed like the director was some Chinese fan girl fanatic and wanted a piece. The CGI was trash, you can get better quality from Chinese movies dated since 2010. THERE WASNT EVEN A SINGLE SONG, reflection wasn’t even sung. The acting was peaked trash, and most of the lines spoken were plain like they were robots; there wasn’t any emotions, only a few jokes here and there and some actors displaying at least some emotions. There wasn’t any character connections which made the character development so plain, and they forced everything instead of developing the main character which was WHY THE ORIGINAL WAS GREAT. The way that the movie ended was trash. This 2020 movie was straight up trash and I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE PAY TO WATCH THIS, NO MATTER HOW HYPED IT SEEMS. I literally went back just to watch the cartoon series just to forget that I saw such a DISGRACE TO THE MULAN FAME!!!!
All of these people who say, “Mulan was great” and rated 5 stars have either actually not seen the movie, were paid to give it a 5 stars, or blankly has no taste for movies or even how the original was. There wasn’t character connections or development, and how they portrayed it was straight up trash. This movie is all just for cash, the directors spat on a great series and were like “ooh yeah they were doing great with all the stunts...” yeah well what about your part, or even the plain bland acting like a middle school in-class play.
THE FACT that the 1 star reviews out-does or is even on par with the 5 star reviews, tells you everything you need to know. DONT PAY TO WATCH THIS DISHONOR!
