On Douban, China’s top movie review site, Mulan only received a below average score of 4.8 at the time of writing. Out of 47,282 reviews from the audience, only about 11.2 got 3 stars or more, accounting for the largest proportion of 2 star reviews (36.1%). This shows that Disney’s live-action blockbuster is not suitable for Chinese audiences.
The comment section on Douban was filled with displeasure from the audience. The only thing that they are satisfied with in this drama is just the beauty of Liu Yifei – the actress plays the main character Hua Mulan, other than that the film has nothing worth watching. Most of the audience was disappointed with the rambling plot, lack of emphasis and the lack of character building of the film.
Some viewers said: This is not the Mulan movie that everyone wants to see. The Western production team can’t interpret the ancient Chinese story well, the details are rambling, they don’t understand the Chinese culture well, there is even confusion, can’t show the specific cultural details. show. That makes the film awkward, just “a Western story in the guise of Mulan”.
Mulan will officially open in theaters in China on September 11, however, as mentioned above, the film did not receive the recognition of the majority of the audience on Douban. So even if it hits theaters, there will probably be very little chance for this movie to flip.
