Bad movies that stars can't save

My expectations are not very high, but after more than two years of waiting, this rubbish script has no sincerity. Probably because I'm too familiar with Mulan's animations. Looking at it calmly now, they did not do their due diligence to complete the deconstruction and reconstruction of the script, and made a lot of "seemingly necessary" deletions and additions to the established script. Deleted are soul roles (such as grandma, mushu, worms, and various friendships of several big men), Mulan's rebellion (she goes against the original environment, against the women's private school, and against the adaptation process of military life) Conflict with her father since childhood (because Mulan surpassed a man's fear of life and death and the righteousness of the family and country, and because her father missed her daughter day and night, she was finally reconciled when she joined the army on her father's behalf). Disney's visual effects are nothing to say, but the thin plot and deliberately contrived story line, you will find that this movie does not even have the patience to let the audience experience a complete story line in addition to Mulan's feelings. I feel like I just watched a beautiful qigong master who opened up, how to hang and beat the army. . . (Is there a qigong fan from the screenwriter?)

The added role is only Gong Li, the embarrassing magician witch. The emotion of the character can't even be said to be facialized, it's simply broken. In the whole drama, in addition to a Chinese version of Wonder Woman, how many impressions do you have?

Apart from being distressed for my favorite Tianxian, Gong Huang and Li Jie, this movie is not worthy of me and anyone around me contributing to the box office. For dozens of dollars, I'd better buy popcorn!

It turns out that letting foreigners make Chinese films (note: live-action films here!) is a last resort. Shame and throw it home!

    From this point of view, it is good that Chinese stories can be filmed by Disney, but the film is indeed not good or bad. Since so many Chinese-speaking actors have been invited to shoot Chinese themes, it is necessary to pay more attention to Chinese culture and the market. Investigating, rather than making a film about China in the old times, some things in the film give me the feeling that my understanding of China is still in the 1970s and 1980s. Originally, Mulan joined the army on behalf of her father was a moving and inspirational story. The inspiration is the story itself. This is a very good reflection, but it is disappointing that even the moving is not filmed. The whole film is long and boring. There are a few scenes that I feel like watching Game of Thrones. I can only say that this challenge is also a failure. challenge

    So embarrassing! ! ! ! From the plot to the costumes, from the actors' acting to the design of the lines, the witches and so on are really incompatible, and at first glance, the perm is carefully taken care of. The movie is full of Disney's routines over the past few years. Leaving the armor that symbolizes bondage is handled by the Snow Queen, and the acquaintance and sympathy between the two female characters are also what Digini has often done in making princess movies these years. But the most awkward aspect of the whole movie, apart from the worldview design of the lines and actors, is the four disparate changes made by Disney in an attempt to better integrate American-style individual heroism into the so-called traditional Eastern Confucian culture. . . The emphasis on qi, I might as well look at supernatural powers

Mulan quotes

  • The Matchmaker: Quiet, composed, graceful, elegant, poised, polite. These--are the qualities we see in a good wife. These--are the qualities--we see in Mulan. When a wife serves her husband, she must be--silent. She must be... invisible.

  • Mulan: It is my duty - to fight him.
