Not as bad as I first thought

Rating: 7/10 (16 March 2002)

I'll be honest here. I started watching this movie with a pretty negative attitude about the whole thing. I think that most Disney movies have gotten worse and worse over the past few years, so I assumed "Mulan" would be no exception. But then, after I watched the movie for a little while, I realized it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it might be. The characters are quite well-developed, and the movie itself moves along fairly smoothly. I think the only thing that really "clogged" the movie was the frequent songs, although I truly enjoyed a couple of them. All in all, I found the movie quite enjoyable, and I give it about a 7 out of 10.
