Mulan

What to Know

Critics Consensus

It could have told its classic story with greater depth, but the live-action Mulan is a visual marvel that serves as a stirring update to its animated predecessor.

Peter Travers ABC News 07/26/2023
At its core, Caro's "Mulan" is quietly revolutionary, as it revels in the exhilarating sight of a young woman fighting for and earning her place in the world. Go to Full Review

I can only describe Mulan as a visually spectacular disappointment. Void of any emotional resonance, the film eschews coherent storytelling for what amounts to an Orientalist war epic masquerading as a feminist win for Asians everywhere. Go to Full Review

2.5/5
Its cast, its attitude, its overall eagerness to please -- all benefits, one would think -- don't add up to a good movie. They add up to a blueprint of the movie this ought to be. Go to Full Review

It also does not help that Li is a legendary, iconic actor, and Yifei Liu, who plays Mulan, is not the best actor. She is not bad, but she is a wee bit wooden. Go to Full Review

MULAN is a film best described as an "if only" production. If only the script had the input from actual Chinese people. If only it didn’t treat the culture, history, and mythology like a cheap prop. Go to Full Review

Even though Niki Caro delivers the realistic, distinct take that was promised, its execution feels inferior to the original animated film in every single way. The 1998’s movie is far more epic and cinematic than its remake. Go to Full Review

Kaydence F @prettylittleliar 14h This show SUCKS. Disney did horrible with this one i couldn’t even finish the movie. Where’s mushu? Why does mulan have zero emotion the whole movie? Where the hell is Shang??? See more Ash P @AshParth 3d This movie had some moments as well as some interesting additions, yet fails with how dull and boring most of the time. If I have one word to talk about this movie, it would be that it tried too hard to be serious while trying to be the animated film back in 1997 or the Ballad of Mulan. Would I watch this movie again? No. It does have a small fanbase, and I won't yuck their yum. For me, no thanks. I am going to give this 2020 version of Mulan three pheonix in the sky out of ten. 3/10. See more Karleigh M @Mimimimimi. 3d I despised this. The story line is completely gone from the original, and the editing and effects were horrid and Mushu disappeared, so no humour and no storyline for HIM as well. It's soulless See more Isaac S @Isaac709 Dec 6 Worst live adaptation, director should never make a movie again. Rethink it or talk to fans before making another movie. See more Tyler R Nov 24 I Mean Wut Is This It Loses The Fun From The First Movie it's just battle scenes it loses stuff from the first movie See more Noah H Nov 21 Everyone has pretty much said it already. ABSOLUTE CRAP! No humor, no Mushu, no songs, and Mulan is so boring in this. The actress who plays her shows ZERO emotion. Do not recommend. See more Read all reviews
