Mulan (2020)
7/10
Better then you would expect. It's not a remake.
7 January 2021
To be honest it was way better then I expected. I has been a decade since I seen the original so I didn't remember much of it and had low expectations when I watched the new version. But it pleasantly surprised me. I liked the more serious tone and the lack of the stupid love story, it was hinted that there might be something between the two but it didn't shove it in your face. The more serious tone also made the stakes more interesting and important, made it feel that there is a chance there might not be a happy ending. At time the dialogue did feel disjointed and a bit odd but I can get past that, it was still really fun to watch.

Also really glad there were no music numbers or Mushu. I think they would have ruined the story. This film is not a musical and it does not require comic relief. If they did CGI Mushu into the film, I am sure many people would be whining and complaining about it.
