Fun Chinese theme

Rating: Null/10 (22 July 2001)

Forget the armchair critics.
If you're a Disney fan. you'll love this one, about a Chinese girl who joins the army to fight maurading Huns. There's a little dragon friend (Eddie Murphy), a romantic captain of the guard (Donny Osmond provided the singing voice), an evil-looking Hun chieftain, an irritating minister and 3 soldier friends.
Despite what others may say, the songs are terrific - not soul (ala Hercules) or jazz (ala Jungle Book), just normal. It's not a kiddies' film - it's for the whole family.
Frankly, I'm not really a Disney fan and have little patience to watch most animated films. But this one's worth it.
