recently launched the movie " Mulan " released on Disney+, which encountered Waterloo. Many Chinese overseas, who took the lead in spending US$29.9, had a less than expected viewing experience. Although the film has not yet been released in China, Douban has already rated this film, but surprisingly, the score is very low, only 4.9 points.
This movie was directed and shot by Disney. In fact, as early as 1998, Disney published a movie about Mulan. It was an animated cartoon called "Mulan". The film received a good response in the country and was unanimously recognized by domestic audiences. This cartoon has a score of 7.8 on Douban. Many viewers said that they have watched this cartoon not 100 times, but 50 times.
Obviously the live-action version of "Mulan" has lost a lot of the animated version of "Mulan". The audience who have watched the live-action film also put forward their own opinions, thinking that the director of the film has many misunderstandings about the history of our country. It's all made mechanically.
1. In the movie, there are soldiers who secretly poured water and were driven out of the army. The director
obviously wanted to show that the army has strict discipline, but he did not figure out how these soldiers entered the army. At that time, many countries did not have enough strong labor force, and the military strength was even worse. In order to supplement the strength of the army, many soldiers are forced to join the army, and every household must provide strong labor to supplement the army's strength. In some homes, there is not a single hard worker who has been arrested, and even the elderly and underage children have to be arrested to replenish their troops.
In the folk song "Mulan Ci" of the Northern Dynasties, there is such a sentence: I saw the army post last night, the Khan will be more soldiers. The twelve books of the army have the name of the master. The meaning of this sentence is that Hua Mulan saw a post from the army last night that the emperor wanted to conscript for war, and issued many conscription orders, each of which had Mulan’s father’s name. And Mulan's father was very old, which shows that the military strength at that time was very insufficient. If
is thrown out of the army after committing such a small mistake, that is exactly what these soldiers can't ask for, because there is basically no labor at home and elderly parents waiting to be taken care of. If they could leave the army so simply, it would have followed the wishes of these soldiers.
2. Mulan joined the army to bring glory to the family. At the beginning of the
movie, it was emphasized that Mulan joined the army for family glory. This obviously makes no sense.
explained in the "Mulan Ci": Haw and Haw, Mulan is a household weaving, not the sound of the machine, but the woman sighs. The meaning of this sentence is that Mulan was still weaving before joining the army, but she was worried and sighed while weaving. Mulan was worried about her father. When her father was too old, she would not be able to bear it when she went to conscript for war.
The reason why Mulan joined the army for her father is also clearly explained in "Mulan Ci". In "Mulan Ci" it is said: Grandpa has no eldest son, and Mulan has no eldest brother. Willing to be the city's pommel horse, and from then on behalf of the Lord. The meaning of this sentence is that Mulan's parents have no sons and Mulan has no older brothers. She is willing to go to the market to buy pommel horses to serve her father.
Obviously Hua Mulan was forced to join the army, not for family glory. The director confuses the concept and fails to clarify the historical facts.
3. The biggest bug in the movie, Gong Li , the fairy
Gong Li, the fairy who is a magician, can be regarded as the biggest bug in the movie. Her strength completely crushed the pros and cons,-hanging Hua Mulan was as simple as pinching the ants to death, she could completely kill the emperor and replace it. However, she was willing to take refuge in a villain who she could kill at any time. She was obedient to the villain and had to admire the screenwriter's brains. In the end, in order to choose to save Mulan, he would rather sacrifice his life and be shot to death with an arrow. But with her ability, how could she be shot to death with an arrow is really incredible, is it really the protagonist of Hua Mulan with aura supremacy, everything is dominated by the protagonist.
has no role as a fairy in history. Obviously it was added by the screenwriter to make the movie look good, but such a role is too strong to be controlled. Moreover, this role is more like a magician in a European and American mythical movie. It was added to cater to the tastes of Europeans and Americans. This combination of Chinese and Western characters is definitely a big failure in this movie..
This movie will be released in China in a few days. Obviously, this movie is not as exciting as it was originally advertised, nor has it reached the audience's expectations. I don't know how many people will watch this movie by then.
