    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Mulan touches her hair a lot because animators noticed that Ming-Na Wen did.
    • Goofs
      When Mulan reads the Final Admonition and reads some of it off her arm, it was written in simplified Chinese. However, simplified Chinese was created in the 1950s. Mulan should have used the traditional Chinese symbols.
    • Quotes

      Mulan: [to Shang] Would you like to stay for dinner?

      Grandmother Fa: [Yelling in the background] Would you like to stay forever?

    The growth of the typical Disney heroine
    There are two things I love about this movie, aside from its stunning and beautiful animation. One is that I love the fact that Disney is exploring legends from other cultures and I am so glad it brought us this one. The other is that I just wanted to stand up and cheer at this great heroine. I am a huge fan of Disney movies, but most of the heroines, while spunky, are still just your basic damsel in distress. I loved Mulan's character. She was strong, she was powerful, she could do anything she wanted, and she overcame much diversity. I was thrilled to see the portrayal of a strong female character surviving because of her own integrity and strength rather than because of her looks. Bravo, Disney, for bringing us this wonderfully progressive Chinese tale.
