By comparing the three, we may be able to discover the different values ​​​​of China and the United States, as well as the narrative and performance in the film. difference in method.

This film embodies the story of Mulan more in the display of love. In comparison, it hides the bravery, filial piety, and fearlessness of Mulan in joining the army on behalf of her father. For the Chinese, this kind of upside-down The performance is quite unacceptable, so the score of more than 7 points is understandable.

But from the point of view of film, this film is still very good, especially the story of some fragments of Mulan's family is sung in the form of opera. Yes, after all, you don't have to go to the concert hall to listen to the opera, you can watch the movie and listen to the music together in the cinema.
