Everyone was eagerly waiting for and anticipating this movie.万众瞩目

The ratings were low.评分很低

Had many criticisms.口碑很差

the live action version was based on the animated one基于动画版本的真人武打版本，但更像是成人电影(adult movie)，因为这部电影：

does not have songs没有歌曲

has more fighting and action scenes有更多武打场景

The story of Mulan花木兰的故事

Pretends to be a boy 女扮男装

Goes to the war to fight in the place of her father 替父从军

美国人民的反应

美国人民的反应(response)：very mixed看法不一

Positive comments(好评)

是好电影，love it a lot。

可以拍得更像迪士尼动画电影(animated Disney movie)。

有创新，没有repeat the original(原来的)movie。

吸引人(grabbing)，并且，“全程无尿点”(扣人心弦，引人入胜people were on the “edge of their seats”)

Negative comments(差评):

没有准确(accurately)描绘(portray)the story or Chinese culture。

因为政治问题(political issues)而迁怒这部电影。

选的体裁(genre)有问题： 既不是kids movie, 也不是war movie。

The main criticisms(主要的差评)：很无聊(boring)，不能吸引人的注意力 (grab people’s attention)。

因为疫情，美国could not release(上映) it in movie theaters。

Selah和朋友在自己的专属movie theater——living room，看了这部电影，两人AA付电影票(split the price)。

美国人的电影评分平台：IMDb

Mulan got a 5.4/10 (5.4 out of 10)score on IMDb.

《花木兰》这部电影在IMDb上的评分是5.4分。

这部电影并没有赚到期望的票房(make as much money as they thought they would), 尤其还是 Disney movie。

Selah的观影感受

Selah really enjoyed the movie. 非常喜欢这部电影。

这部电影：

did a good job at (在……做得好)telling the story, showing Chinese cultural values

family movie(适合家人一起看)：因为没有intense romance(强烈的爱情)

made Selah laugh and proud of Chinese stories and history(为中国故事和历史感到骄傲)

did a good job at making it look and feel “Chinese”(看上去和感受起来很“中国”)

传递 Chinese traditional values(中国精神)：bravery(勇气) and family honor(家族的荣耀)

the costumes: big dresses (大长裙)and 夸张的makeup(妆容)

the actresses Liu Yifei & Gong Li：did an excellent job and did not try to be too American or Western(演出了“中国化”的感觉)
