I could write a glowing recommendation for all of the Disney movies. I could tell you how appealing and gorgeous the colors are in Pocahontas or I could explain the graphics necessary to make someone fly like in Tarzan. Or I could mention the wonderful lessons Cinderella, Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, or Lady and the Tramp teaches young children. But the best Disney film incompaces this and so much more. Mulan was released in 1998 and tells the story of young princess Mulan who impersonates a man so she can join the Chinese army to protect her injured father when the Huns attack the Great Wall of China. In the end Mulan prevails, gets the respect that she so greatly deserves, and finds her "prince". But what's important isn't what Mulan earns in the ends its what she learns along the way. She is strong, beautiful, and a princess. Mulan is smashed with wonderful songs including but not limited to; "A Girl Worth Fighting For", "I'll Make A Man Out Of You", and "Reflection". Mulan was also one of the first Disney films to use exstensive computer graphics. In one scene they make 25 Hun soldiers coming down a snow covered mountain look more like 25,000. Mulan is my favorite Disney movie and I'm sure after another viewing it will be yours too.
