Mulan

When Mulan first came out it was just a modest hit, I mean critics and audiences seemed to say the same thing, it was just O.K. And even today it's still considered to be just O.K. And yeah I think the same way. What's the story? In China the Huns are invading so an army has to be assembled from one man from each family to go and fight. One is a father of a young woman named "Mulan" who is too old and too sick to fight. So she disguises herself as a boy and goes to fight for him. She's accompanied with a Chinese dragon named "Mushu" and while at first she gets on the wrong ends with everyone at first she does manage to win over the crowd, never letting anyone know her secret. So what's good about this movie? Well for starters the characters are pretty good and funny, particularly the army themselves. Mulan herself is O.K, she's nice, she's not one to give-up easily and she does seem to love her father to go do this for him. Mushu is definitely my favourite character, mainly because he's funny and he's played by one of my favourite comedians, "Eddie Murphy" as in the same person who played "Donkey" in "Shrek." And in my opinion, the villain of this movie "Shan Yu" is defiantly one of the darkest and coolest and most menacing villains ever put in a Disney film. His design is awesome, what he does is awesome and even though he has very little dialogue, which I think makes him even more cool, when he does talk it awesome because his voice is so deep and perfect for a villain like this. And also the animation looks good too especially the backgrounds and the animation during the action scenes is great looking. So yeah, I'd definitely say take a look at it.
