there's like, no *fun* in this movie. it's too serious and heavy-handed by hand
Mulan (2020) (spoilers)
they introduce a badass evil witch character who is subservient to the big bad for no clear reason
"I could tear you apart" she tells him
yeah you could. why don't you?

@quirk I have to agree with the author of the video that the biggest problem with the movie isn't that it misrepresents asian culture (although that's certainly an issue) but that it simply fails to be a good movie: there's no jokes, no charm, no emotion, no character development. they threw that all out in pursuit of "realism" while completely missing the point of the story and undermining its message.
what utter trash. do better, Disney.
