I am pretty sure that everyone who were involved in the making of this movie worked hard and did their best. But alas, their best isn't enough. Everything about it screams mediocre.
I know it is a standalone movie and it has no obligation to follow the cartoon, but one can't help to compare Mulan to Mulan. The cartoon may have a lot of plotholes (such as, why is it the empire of China had practically no troops and had to depend of fresh ones, also it only has one general/one warlord? and one platoon?). But the cartoon has to be praised too for it's funny moments and quirky characters.
This live action one has nothing stand out. The witch is just, another witch, just like those in The Mummy or Indiana Jones. The phoenix did nothing worthwhile too. What's the point of inserting her in the movie? The main character is, well, a cardboard character. She has no interest in man. She's the strongest one in her team somehow and she doesn't need help. She beat the big bad by herself. (Compared to the cartoon version where she did it by teamwork). She can't really tell jokes. She did nothing but kick ass and be cool. She's a character that even middle schoolers can come up with. No originality and stand out quirk at all.
What a shame. My final score : 6/10. Which fits the mediocrity of this movie.
