In ancient China, there was a cheerful and kind-hearted girl named Hua Mulan. As the eldest daughter of the Hua Family, Hua Mulan, under the enlightened teachings of her parents, has always been looking forward to bringing glory to the Hua Family. . However, when the Xiongnu invaded from the north and the country was recruiting troops, Mulan's elderly father was also recruited into the battlefield. The sad Mulan was afraid that her father would never return, so she disguised herself as a man at midnight and stole his father's Armor, to go to the battlefield in place of father. In order to protect Mulan, the ancestors of the Hua family sent a kind-hearted Mushulong to accompany her. This little dragon, who spoke like a cannonball and was angry, brought a lot of laughter and assistance to Mulan along the way. In the 36th annual feature-length animated film, Disney used the ancient Chinese legend "Mulan" for the first time. More than 600 Disney animators worked tirelessly for four years to transform the legendary content into dizzying stories. Animated scenes, of course, there is no shortage of beautiful soundtracks and hilarious humor! A pair of living treasures in the film - Mushulong and Cricket, two individuals who were not drawn to each other appeared in the play, which became a highlight of the film. They tried their best to be funny, and Mushulong was very active. , Cricket is low-key, but the combination of the two makes a lot of jokes. This dragon has a strong vanity, loves face, and has a human side. In addition, this dragon has the characteristics of madness, which makes people very fond of it. It is a living treasure. When the snow mountain fought against the Xiongnu, this dragon was still surfing with an armor during the avalanche, which made people laugh. As for Hua Mulan, who was born in an ancient Chinese family, she has been a smart, high-spirited girl since she was a child. Although she wants her parents to be proud of her daughter, she often seems to be self-defeating, which makes her sad. When she learned that her elderly father would be drafted into the army to fight against the invading Huns, Hua Mulan couldn't help worrying about her father's safety. The sudden courage prompted Mulan to decide to bid farewell to her hometown and disguise herself as a man to "join the army for her father". It's like getting the shade of our ancestors. From being rejected to being accepted, just as Mulan's military life was getting better, her identity as a woman disguised as a man was revealed, and she and Mushu were abandoned on the icy frontier. She didn't give up the courage to fight setbacks, but how did Mulan, who wanted to bring pride to her family, return to the Central Plains and prove her heart? And the crime of deceiving her parents to go on an expedition and deceiving her superiors to join the army, how will Hua Mulan face her family? After joining the army, relying on her perseverance and patience, Hua Mulan passed many difficult trainings and tests and became an indispensable general in the army. However, when they were going to fight in the north, Hua Mulan's daughter was discovered by her colleagues in the army. The men were afraid that Mulan would be convicted of "deceiving the king" by the court officials, so they had to abandon her in the iceberg and snow. , go to the land of the Huns to fight on their own. Fortunately, in such a difficult time, Mushulong was always by her side, giving her spiritual support and encouragement from time to time.

In terms of story genre and mission image creation, the animated film Hua Mulan is a classic in our hearts!

    Twenty-two years after its release, I rewatched it. I didn't want to watch it back then because foreigners liked to draw phoenix eyes, and they called me bored. Unexpectedly beautiful. The setting of the father-daughter connection is very good. The Chinese say that fathers love their daughters and mothers love their sons. I have seen many situations that are true. The souls of the ancestors in the film (the so-called ancestral tablets), this arrangement is really awesome, Taiwan folks call it "the table of gods". One of the screenwriters is a Chinese woman, which may be the credit. It was really funny when the monk appeared, holding the soldier shaking and saying Amitabha, laughing. The composition of the big scene is really good and powerful enough. The appearance of Mushulong is really a miracle. Crickets and horses are also good. A lot of memes are funny. In the end, Mulan's three military brothers dressed up as women. This is not only creative, but also a kind of gender subversion. It means equal rights, but it is not preachy at all! This artistic difficulty is very precious and natural. It doesn't matter if it is not interpreted in terms of equal rights, it is funny if it is funny. Incorporating musicals into the film is also creative, but then I forgot to make music arias, which is a small disadvantage. The film is quite short, only 80 minutes, but it is rich and full without fat and water. Many films over 90 minutes should probably be rethought.

    Grandmother Fa: This is your chance to prove yourself.

  • Mulan: [Mulan and Mushu escape back to shore from Yao, Ling, and Chin-Po] Boy, that was close.

    Mushu: No...

    Mushu: [brushes his teeth] That was vile! You owe me big.
