A popular Chinese folk tale about a peasant girl who secretly goes in his place in order t o save her father from death in the army, and then becomes one of China's greatest heroines. This time, the princess rescues the prince.
What's terrific about Mulan is its reaching for emotions that other movies run from: family love and duty, personal honor and group commitment, obedience and ingenuity.
A disappointment for anyone hoping the studio would raise the standard of the animated feature to a new level.

Reeling Reviews
Continues Disney's dominance of the animation field with its solid, assured story-telling, good main and supporting characters and superior craftsmanship.
What is chiefly impressive is that the appropriation of Chinese iconography in a film that was plainly made by Western animators feels ultimately so natural and successful.
Overall, this is a lovely film, ranking with the best of Disney's animated features while taking on rather serious issues of war, honor, gender roles and family pride.
