Mulan er "den bedste og mest sexede Disney-genindspilning hidtil"
Af de mange nye Disney-genindspilninger - såsom Dumbo og Aladdin og Løvernes konge - skiller Mulan sig allerede ud.
For det første har den fået den højeste censur for en Disney-ganindspilning i USA (PG-13), og herjhemme er alders-vejledningen netop landet på 11 år med begrundelsen:
"Filmen har en gennemgående dramatisk stemning. Der er mange scener med kampe, og i en del af dem ses personer falde ramt af våben eller liggende døde."
Live action-udgaven over animationsfilmen fra 1998 er nemlig mere en eventyrlig krigsfilm med familiefilms-appel end originalen.
Og skal man tro de første reaktioner på Twitter, er det ikke bare den bedste af genindspilningerne hidtil... men også den mest sexede!
Her er et udvalg af de første reaktioner på 'Mulan':
The cast of Mulan is fantastic in the film. There are lots of little moments that nods to the animated that’ll make the fans happy. Very beautiful & epic cinematography. It had more fantastical elements than I expected. Overall, a great re-telling of the animated and very fun

#Mulan is the best of the Disney live-action remakes since Cinderella — I didn’t even miss the songs. Finds new notes in a story we already know while delivering gorgeous action, heart, and humor. Liu Yifei is

Also! Surprisingly sexy for a Disney movie. Case in point: the very loud “OH MY GOD” that was uttered in the theater when Yoson An took his shirt off. #Mulan

I’ve seen MULAN twice now and I must say it is grrrreat. Easily Disney’s best live action reboot. I think it’s also Disney’s first battle epic? It is beautiful & absorbing & rich & empowering. The cast is excellent and Niki Caro’s direction is just breathtaking.

Disney’s Mulan remake leaves a lot behind, but offers much more in its absence. Plenty of 1998 throwbacks pepper a story full of incredible action, humor, and heart.

Oh, and the romantic chemistry gets STEAMY. Like chanting “kiss” in a silent theater steamy.#Mulan2020 #mulan pic.twitter.com/soILc7OdTm
#Mulan is absolutely fantastic. Different enough with great action scenes, but with the heart of the original film. It doesn't even matter that it's not a musical. If you're a fan of the animated, there are subtle nods to many of the songs. Can’t wait to see this again.

#Mulan is exciting, vibrant, emotional, and different from the animated version. It's definitely its own thing, which I dug - a more mature Disney film, featuring stunning production design & fight choreography. Director Niki Caro & star Liu Yifei are the big stand-outs, imo pic.twitter.com/p6IEQUDNBu

I filmen følger vi den unge kvinde Hua Mulan, der må tage sin fars plads i krigen, uden at nogen opdager, at hun er en kvinde.
Donnie Yen, Jet Li og Li Gong er på rollelisten, og Yifei Liu spiller titelrollen.
