  • Ang gripe ng iba including me eh panget ang character development ni Mulan. OP sya sa simula. Sa cartoons zero skills talaga sya pero na overcome nya ito despite bawal nga sa military ang mga babae.


    Mas unrealistic kung gagaling lang sa martial arts si Mulan out from nothing during her military training. Kaya siguro mas pinili na umpisa pa lang magaling na talaga si Mulan dito. For me parang another chinese kung fu movie lang ito. Pag na-view mo as ganun, di ka naman madidisappoint.
  • Heart Blackened - 8/10



    MAL·MO·E: The Secret Mission - 8/10

  • regarding Mulan(2020)
    zero knowledge ako dyan kahit yung original animation or the original novel itself.
    nakakabasa pa ako ng negative comments fb or dito sa forum.

    pero pinanuod ko pa rin, and maganda sya at nag-enjoy ako overall.

    u know what's the problem with you watching? compare ka kasi ng compare.
  • I would prolly share your sentiment IF wala din ako background sa Mulan or hindi ko napanood ang animated movie noon. But napanood ko and mahirap hindi i-kumpara sa original. And when I say original, yung version ng Disney ng The Ballad of Mulan. In fact madaming movie studio apart from Disney ang gumawa ng movie about Mulan pero hindi naman kinukumpara sa Disney animated movie. Eto lang live action mismo ng Disney ang kinukumpara sa animated movie kasi gawa lang ng iisang movie studio. Bago ka magsalita nyan panoorin mo rin kasi ang animated movie kasi unfair naman na magsabi ka ng ganyan kung di mo alam kung saan nanggaling ang sentiments ng mga nadismaya sa live action mulan. Tsaka hindi ito dahil lang absent si Wushu sa live action pero yung mismong character development ni Mulan eh iniba. I share the sentiment provided by the image below. Di na sya tungkol sa isamg babae na kinaya kung ano ang kayang gawin ng mga lalaki pero naging tungkol sa innate power nya na gusto nya itago kasi iba ang tingin sa kanya.

  • and yan ang sunod na problema. pag ang bagong movie, eh halos same ng animated.

    ano magiging comment? "bakit gumawa pa ng live action eh ganun rin naman pala same na same"
  • Di naman kelangan kopyahin scene per scene. At least yung essence lang ng movie na retain kasi it is about a young woman na sinuway ang expectations ng kanilang society. Pero didto iniba ng Disney yung mythos ni Mulan. I thought nga kaya tinanggal si Mushu eh parang maging grounded to reality yung live action pero hindi kasi naging tungkol sa pag tap ng latent ability na kelangan nya itago. I suggest you watch the animated movie para ma gets mo talaga.
  • Anyway Im not saying disney has no right to reinvent the story of Mulan nor should only stick to their original work. Of course they are free to do that pero it doesn't mean they are free from potential risks and criticisms and true enough many were dismayed. In fact open naman ako sa napanood ko. It didnt really suck but if walang pandemic and sa movie house ko to napanood, eh I would feel slight disappointment kasi ang dating ng live action sa akin ay good for home viewing lang.
  • para sakin, naiba talaga yung live action mulan sa animated at mas gusto ko pa rin yung story animated.
  • 2 Guns - 8/10

    Waiting - 7/10

    Ayos yung Waiting - Ryan Reynolds and Justin Long ahaha
  • Sa akin, natuwa ako sa revision sa Live action movie. Mas naging grounded o napapanahon din ngayon yung pinopromote na virtue. Dati more like self empowerment, pero ngayon mas nangibabaw yung devotion sa family. HIndi rin ako nagcompare. I took it as a different movie na talaga.
  • HIndi rin ako nagcompare. I took it as a different movie na talaga.

    agree. mas okay ineenjoy na lang ang movies. di porke tama o maganda ang 4+2 sa iba e mali o panget ang 3+3. magkaiba lang talaga hilig ang mga tao. pag ako nagandahan o napangitan sinasabi ko pa din mas maganda kung panuorin nya.

    para di OT
    di ko na natapos ang sakit sa teennnggaaaaa!! para akong nahihilo sa mga pinagsasabi nya hehe.

    I am not used to watching this kind of movie coz usually I'm into fast paced, big budget, mind-f*ck films, comedy and romcoms. This one, I dont really know where to categorize it but this is one of those films that makes you wonder where the story is exactly going to take you. The last movie that I saw which is kinda similar to this vibe was Burning (Korean movie which starred Steven Yeun and Yoo Ah-In). Both films I just sat there letting the film roll by itself and with zero idea where the story is headed. This is drama for sure but there is another element at play that makes the storytelling unique.

    Anyway it's not really that good but not bad either. Might be a palate cleanser or maybe I was just bored. However the fact that Alexandra Daddario is in it and if I may add, it's a provocative film, might just pique your interest.

    3.5/5
