Hi friends,
Many of you may have watched the movie Mulan and many haven't.But do you know that Mulan is a true story?Maybe you don't believe me but it is true.About 2000 years ago a real woman called Mulan lived and she did exactly what is shown in the movie.However the story was not so famous till in 1998 The Walt Disney company made it into a super-hit animation movie.Here is a review of the movie written by me.
Story:
Long ago in China,a tiny dragon named Mushu was assigned to protect a young woman called Mulan by her ancestors.She had dressed as a man to take her father's place in the war against the Huns.
Hoping to help her fit in,Mushu advised Mulan to,''Walk like a man.Legs apart,'' and ''Punch guys in the arm.Call them names and spit alot.'' Every time Mushu gave her advice,Mulan caused more trouble in the army camp and when Captain Shang arrived it was in chaos.
''My name is...uh...Ping,'' Mulan told Shang,trying to sound like a man.Shang did not like troublemakers.Shang was a good leader,and Mulan worked hard to win his respect.
All of the soldiers liked Ping and were inspired by her actions.But not even her best friends ,Chien-Po,Ling and Yao ,knew that ''Ping'' was a woman.
Shang led his troop to join the inperial army.Sadly,they saw that the army and the village had been attacked.Soon,the Huns returned.
Mulan,with Mushu's help,caused an avalanche that buried the Hun army.Wounded in the battle,Mulan was still able to climb on her horse and pull Shang from the snow.
As Shang thanked Mulan with admiration,he said,''From now on you have my trust.'' Mulan's smile soon disappeared, as her wound was treated,everyone learned the truth,that ''Ping'' was really a woman,Mulan in disguise.At this time in China,the punishment for Mulan's was death,but Shang spared her.''A life for a life,'' he said.
Sadly,Mulan saw the troops march away.Mulan told Mushu,''I just wanted to do things right,so that when I looked into the mirror I would see someone worthwhile.But now I see nothing.'' Mushu said that he had set out to make Mulan a hero so that he would get back his position as a guardian spirit.''You risked your life to help people you love.I risked your life to help myself,'' he told her.Mulan hugged the little dragon.
Suddenly Mulan saw that a few of the Huns,including their fierce leader,had survived.Racing to the imperial city to warn Shang,Mulan arrived moments before the emperor was taken prisoner.
Chien-Po,Ling and Yao couldn't break down the palace door.''I have an idea!'' Mulan called.They let Mulan to dress them as women and were able to get close enough to attack the Huns.Shang soon followed them.
They rescued the emperor,but Shan-Yu,the Hun leader,attacked Shang.To protect him,Mulan and Mushu hatched a plan.
They led Shan-Yu to the top of the palace and Mushu shot a rocket toward him.Shan-Yu was blasted into a tower of fireworks.
Mulan was happy to return home.She knew that she was special enough as herself.She gave the sword given to her by the emperor to her father,and he welcomed her back.Shang soon followed her,she was much more than a good soldier to him;he was in love with her.Mulan's heart was full.
As for Mushu,the little dragon got back his guardianship.''Send out for eggrolls!'' he shouted to the happy ancestors.
THE END.
