Mulan II starring Ming-Na, B.D. Wong, Mark Moseley, Lucy Liu, Harvey Fierstein
Mulan 2: Not Just Cheesy
With less drama and more slapstick than its predecessor, Disneys Mulan II continues the animated saga of the young Chinese heroine, Fa Mulan (voiced by Ming-Na Wen, sung by Lea Salonga). The story picks up one month after Mulan has saved her country through bravery and determination. Revered by all, she now returns to her village and becomes engaged to General Li Shang. Wedding plans must wait, however, when the Emperor assigns the couple to a secret mission to escort his three princess daughters across China where their arranged marriages to waiting princes will secure an alliance with a rival kingdom and save China from invasion. Meanwhile, Mulans wise-cracking guardian dragon, Mushu (voiced by Mark Moseley), realizes that if Mulans marriage takes place, he is out of a job and so he undertakes his 18-phase master plan of relationship sabotage to breakup the happy couple. Most of the films jokes
come from Moseleys Mushu (as quick-witted as Eddie Murphys earlier performance), while a trio of prankish soldiers provide additional comic relief. While the films overall effort is not as sensational as the original, it offers solid family entertainment, healthy female role models, and a handful of catchy songs. (Ages 6 and older) --Lynn Gibson
Personal Review: Mulan II starring Ming-Na, B.D. Wong, Mark Moseley, Lucy Liu, Harvey Fierstein
Better than expected, this very cute sequel delivers fun and entertainment. Yes, it's Disney. This is just a light continuation with the characters that we've seen in Mulan. No, characters don't change. Mushu can even be said to be funnier in this than the prequel. Go rent it, if you like it, then buy it.
