Mulan
From the Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can change
Mulan is a 1998 animated movie from Walt Disney Pictures, set in old-time China and based on local legend. It stars the voices of Ming-Na Wen as the title heroine, along with Eddie Murphy.
Mulan was a success with its fans, as the movie was different from Disney's usual fare in terms of music and artistic design.
The music was by Jerry Goldsmith; he once did the same thing for another animated movie, 1982's The Secret of NIMH. Christina Aguilera sang Reflections for the movie's soundtrack.
A direct-to-DVD sequel, Mulan II, came out early in 2005.
A group of evil men, the Huns (led by Shan Yu), have made an attack on Chinese families. The only ones who can fight them off are their male soldiers. Fa Mulan's father is willing to join, but after he becomes hurt, his daughter replaces him and disguises as a soldier.
When she disappears from her family, a small, comic dragon named Mushu (Eddie Murphy) is called upon to find and save her. Mulan herself meets him, before both join an army that plans on defeating Yu and the Huns.
There are also accompanied by a lucky cricket, given to Mulan by her grandmother.
