“Aladdin” Movie Review
“Aladdin” Plot Summary
Aladdin, a street urchin, accidentally meets Princess Jasmine, who is in the city undercover. They love each other, but she can only marry a prince.
Aladdin is my favorite movie of all time.
This is my favorite movie of all time. I have loved this movie since I saw it when it came out in 1992. I have watched it so many times, that I know all the words. I think this movie is great to watch with the kids. Or even if you don’t have kids. I own all three on DVD and VHS. It is the first movie my daughter saw. I think it is the best Disney movie ever made. I like all three, but the first is still my favorite one. it’s the original that sticks with you. the others may be good, but not as good as the first. I hope everyone can enjoy this movie. I think no matter how old you are, or no matter what you do, that there is always room for a good Disney movie.

“Mulan” Movie Review
“Mulan” Plot Summary
To save her father from death in the army, a Chinese maiden secretly goes in his place and becomes one of China’s greatest heroes in the process. add synopsis
Delightful Animated Girl Hero who Breaks with Disney Traditions
‘Mulan’ is not quite a chick flick and it’s much better than ‘Pochantas.’ It has terrific animation and I forgot I was even watching animation. The script has some funny lines. The music is not great (the writers didn’t ring any bells with me as to their past work) but good lyrics. I was disappointed that the music wasn’t as Asianish as ‘Lion King’ is Africanish. And the final rap is a bit off-putting, though the segue into the Stevie Wonder song was fun
Eddie Murray isn’t Robin Williams but he’s fun. At least they do use quite a few Asian actors’ voices – Wing Na Wen (‘E.R.’), George Takei (‘Star Trek’), B.D. Wong (‘Oz’) Pat Morita (‘Karate Kid’). I think ‘Mulan’ is the first Disney animation post-Katzenberg and there’s a couple of digs at him and responses to the criticisms of how he did the girl stars. There was a lot of criticism of how Katzenberg personally insisted on Jasmine in ‘Aladdin’s impossible Barbie shape and ‘Mulan’ takes that on with a line about how stupid it is to want such a narrow waist. Definitely a much more positive body image movie than under the Katzenberg regime. There’s no dead mother syndrome here, well for Mulan anyway. The Captain’s mother isn’t mentioned. Not only is there a mom, but even a grandmom. The father is still Freudian – he’s wounded. All the Disney dads of daughters have some incapacity or other or tragic flaw
Refreshingly, there’s no wedding at the end with birds chirping as a canopy. The courting is assumed and the grandmom invites the captain to live there forever–but Mulan shuts her up. (originally written 7/23/1998)
