DVD Reviews of Mulan II

DVD Review: AWFUL.
Summary: 1 Stars

A true Disney 'cheapquel'not only does the animation look completly awful and flat but the charactors are even more flat. They have very different personalities. You have to wonder if anyone working on this movie even watched the original (they may have been the same people for all I know, I don't pay attention). Nobody I know likes both the original and the sequel. If you feel this is a movie you just have to see rent it. It should be cheap at most rental places by now...

DVD Review: Mulan II
Summary: 5 Stars

We bought Mulan II for our children (7 & 4) and it's great. It's definately not a cheap sequel with the voices of different actors. It's very true to the original story as a good sequel should be, using the same themes, actors and graphic artists. Excellent - and highly recommended.

DVD Review: Mulan 11 is a hit!
Summary: 5 Stars

The movie was delivered promptly and in great condition and my grand daughters and I have enjoyed it very much.

DVD Review: Must evrything be ruined with lackluster sequels?
Summary: 2 Stars

It lives up to the low expectations that Disney viewers have come to expect from sequels, and little more. The Yin-Yang plot could have been carried out much more effectively, but instead just seemed to be a weakened plot device that drags on with no energy. The princesses are too flat, with an exception of Ting-Ting. But since when is Ling so bent on telling cheesy jokes? In the first movie, his main interests were purely of beauty. Mushy was simply selfish and cruel - not the fun, helpful sidekick he used to be. He was unbearable from his very first scene. And the princesses found the love of their lives within the first day-and-a-half of their journey? A little too cheesey..... And fireflies landing on the wicks of firecrackers and setting them off is endlessly annoying. Any true Mulan Fan would be disappointed.
Young children would enjoy it for the endless cheap comedy scenes and cutesy little romances, but for older entertainment, it's best left as a rental.

DVD Review: Great sequel!
Summary: 4 Stars

Mulan is one of my very favorite Disney movies, so I bought Mulan 2 for my children to enjoy. Although it is not the same quality animation as the first, it is still an enjoyable movie. Overall, I would recommend this movie over other Disney sequels.

Description of Mulan II

The magnificent legend of MULAN continues in an all-new movie that "captures the magic of the original," says Geoffrey Kleinman of DVD Talk. The beautiful and courageous heroine is back, along with her hilarious guardian dragon Mushu, for more excitement and adventure. After saving her nation from the evil Huns, the spirited Mulan gets the surprise of her life when General Shang asks for her hand in marriage. Before the wedding, however, Mulan and Shang must complete a dangerous mission as they escort three princesses, Ting-Ting, Mei, and Su, to a distant city. The future of China hangs in the balance when, in the middle of their journey, Mulan and Shang clash over their duties. Breathing fire into all this mayhem is the mischievous Mushu, who wants to keep Mulan single as long as possible in order to keep his cushy job as her guardian dragon. Featuring irresistible new music and great wall-to-wall laughs, MULAN II is "timelessly fun and touching. You'll want to watch it again and again," raves Tony Toscano of Talking Pictures.

With less drama and more slapstick than its predecessor, Disney's Mulan II continues the animated saga of the young Chinese heroine, Fa Mulan (voiced by Ming-Na Wen, sung by Lea Salonga). The story picks up one month after Mulan has saved her country through bravery and determination. Revered by all, she now returns to her village and becomes engaged to General Li Shang. Wedding plans must wait, however, when the Emperor assigns the couple to a secret mission to escort his three princess daughters across China where their arranged marriages to waiting princes will secure an alliance with a rival kingdom and save China from invasion. Meanwhile, Mulan's wise-cracking guardian dragon, Mushu (voiced by Mark Moseley), realizes that if Mulan's marriage takes place, he is out of a job and so he undertakes his "18-phase master plan" of relationship sabotage to breakup the happy couple. Most of the film's jokes come from Moseley's Mushu (as quick-witted as Eddie Murphy's earlier performance), while a trio of prankish soldiers provide additional comic relief. While the film's overall effort is not as sensational as the original, it offers solid family entertainment, healthy female role models, and a handful of catchy songs.
