This movie is awesome. The music is great, the visuals are absolutely stunning and there are messages of empowerment and embracing your identity. I never watched the animated one before this I only watched it yesterday and I felt that this 2020 one is actually much better than the 1998 one. People are saying that the animated one is better just because it was their childhood favourite etc... Ignore the haters and don't believe the bad reviews. This doesn't deserve the 5.4 rating on imdb. It's almost a masterpiece except for a few problems. Great job by director Niki Caro and Liu Yifei was great as Mulan. Overall wonderful movie for the family to watch and it is definitely worth spending $30. Second best remake after Aladdin 2019. I loved it so much that I aldready watched it 10 times. A tip to liking this movie- Just don't compare it with the original and watch it with an open mind and don't politicize it. Though it's not perfect, it is actually a good movie. According to me, it's a must-watch. I recommend going with the Certified Fresh 74% rating on Rotten Tomatoes rather than this 5.4 rating on IMDB
