Summary: Love the Widescreen Version!
Review: Thanks to Disney Home Video for releasing this film in the WIDESCREEN format as well as offering the pan and scan (for those who still don't understand that widescreen shows the entire picture as seen in theaters). Hopefully, Disney will continue offering its animated titles on DVD in this format as the new DISNEY GOLD COLLECTION titles are released this year. I cannot emphasize this enough --- continue to offer widescreen DVD's!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Not as good as its predecessors
Review: While Mulan is a solid film, it can't stand up to the standards held by some of its recent ancestors, namely Aladin, Beauty and the Beast, Lion King.

The animation works, but it doesn't look as catchy as the ultra-realistic animation featured in other non-disney animated movies.

The acting was pretty good, but after seeing too many disney movies one gets sick of the same characters. Enemy pure evil, good guy totally pure and innocent, and the little smart-alec sidekick.

The bad guys' army did look pretty menacing though, and the movie did carry itself well, although the roof scene at the end was too reminiscent of Garcon and Beasts' battle in B&tB. There also weren't enough songs, or of enough caliber, to stand up to previous disney standards.

While this movie can certainly hold its own, it hasn't earned that special place which its better peers have.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent soundtrack, but...
Review: I think AMAZON.com has underadvertized the THX 5.1 feature of this movie. Played on the HT with the Denon AVR-5700 receiver as a centerpiece, the film is nothing short of stunning. Take the scenes where the troop is on training or the battle on the mountain as two of many impressive examples.
Overall, I love this movie. The excellent choice of animated colors, the touching story full of love, heroism, friendship, humor, family, war, patriotism, etc... ALL in this one movie! This can easily bring tears to your eyes. Last, it really shows off your Home Theater. What a picture and sound, WOW!

And what about the bonus video of Christine Aguilera singing the Mu Lan's song. You'll love it!

Summary: Deborah Sampson
Review: Have you ever heard of Deborah Sampson? It is a real life Mulan- except with the Revolllutionaary War. I am very into History -that's why I liked this movie so much.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty good
Review: This movie was pretty good because there was a plot, complications, and some surprises. There was humor. Actually, a lot of humor. That's why the kids loved it most.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: excellent story, OK drawings
Review: I'm a Hong Kong Chinese, this story is one of the best. (it's a required text in Chinese language course for all Form 3 students here). Disney does a good job in bring this to the screen. However, I must say in general the drawing of Mulan pale in comparison with Prince of Egypt, Anatasia. it's just too 2-D. I think Disney must work harder before its position in cartoon making get replaced.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A Masterpiece
Review: This movie is the best, it's funny,it's well written, it's moving, it's EVERYTHING.if you haven't seen this movie, i suggest you see it as soon as possable.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fabulous..
Review: Mulan is the kind of Disney movie that I've been waiting for for a long time. As a father of a 9 year old girl, movies like Pocahontas and especially Hunch back carried fairly heavy handed romantic (and in the case of Hunchback especially obsessive and sexual) undertones that made me, as parent, uneasy. Mulan was the first film in a while that wasn't centered around a female lead striving for the affections of a man. She was a strong young woman who was protecting the health, safety and honor of her father and her family. It was really a step in the right direction to show that a woman doesn't have to be driven by romance or the affections of another to be a strong role model and a leader. I hope Disney takes notice and considers this theme in future.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Movie Ever Made
Review: I was a bit skeptical at first in purchasing this movie. I'm not really the type of person who likes animated movies. But when I saw the reviews here at Amazon.com I thought maybe I'll check it out. It was the best! Anyone who hasn't seen it must see it now! A MUST SEE!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Disney's Comical Point Of Mulan
Review: The story line is good and contains humourous situations. At first a little hesitant in purchasing the DVD, but found that I made good judgement in purchasing it. I find it good for families to enjoy the movie together.Would recommend others to get a copy of this movie.
