Mulan

Mulan (1998) — Adventure / Animation / Comedy Overview: Mulan is an uplifting, fast-paced animated retelling of the Chinese folktale about courage, family and identity. When her ailing father is drafted to fight invading Huns, young Fa Mulan secretly takes his place by disguising herself as a man. With a disgraced little dragon, Mushu, secretly assigned to “protect” her, Mulan must survive boot camp, win the respect of her fellow soldiers and their stern captain, and face dangerous battles on the road to saving her country. What you’ll experience: - A mix of action and heart: energetic training sequences and tense mountain and battle set pieces balanced with emotional family moments and Mulan’s personal struggle over honor and self-worth. - Comedy and warmth: Mushu and other comic touches provide levity, while friendships formed in the ranks bring genuine camaraderie. - Inspiring themes: empowerment, loyalty, and the cost — and meaning — of honor are emphasized as Mulan risks everything to protect her family and nation. - Bright, expressive animation and memorable musical moments that enhance both the humor and drama. Family-friendly and emotionally resonant, Mulan delivers humor, thrills and a satisfying, uplifting story of a young woman becoming a hero on her own terms.
