The heroine Hua Mulan.

The film is based on the story of Chinese historical legend Hua Mulan who disguises herself as a woman and joins the army in her father's place. In the long military life, Hua Mulan gained a lot, and finally defeated the Xiongnu and became famous in history. Some fantasy elements have been added to this film, such as the magical dragon who has been following Hua Mulan and guarding the Hua family, such as the lucky little cricket. What impresses me the most is Mulan's father. He used to be a loyal soldier who served the country, but unfortunately he was injured and was lame. When Mulan was defeated by the matchmaker, he would comfort his daughter, "Every flower has her." The day it blooms", he believes in his daughter. Under the guidance of her parents, Hua Mulan also grew into a slender girl, but this girl is different. She knows boxing and kung fu, but does not know how to dress up. She is brave and scheming. To go to the battlefield, she bravely broke her hair and joined the army in her father's place, and finally defeated the enemy and defended her family and country. She is really a heroine.

The soundtrack of this film is also very in line with the mood, and it sounds very good.

    Three and a half. From the beginning of the ink painting, the background is full of strong Chinese style, and the American painters are very sincere to learn to show the scenes and pictures with oriental characteristics. Mulan's character is very similar to Xu Xian who Ye Tong reversed. The dissatisfaction lies in the depiction of the war. The great prospect of thousands of the Huns assault is very good, but they were dissolved by the avalanche caused by gunpowder hundreds of years in advance, and the two armies lost the possibility of fighting. The most dissatisfied is that Xiongnu Shanyu went directly to assassinate the emperor, which is too unreasonable.

    When I was a child, I felt that the appearance of the heroine was very stereotyped, and the palace was very funny. Rewatching it now, I feel very moved, and the script is written very solidly and seriously. Artists have worked hard, and it has the style of traditional Chinese classic cartoons, which is very meaningful. The character design of Mulan in it is so lovable, quiet, brave, intelligent, independent, yet naive and childish, a bit like the heroine of a Hayao Miyazaki movie, but more hearty and sometimes more off-line. The moment when I took off the male lead's arrow and sat on the pillar to laugh was so beautiful, it made my blood boil. And after re-reading, I think that Mulan's painting is actually quite beautiful, with long and narrow phoenix eyes, not squinting.
