Even though I really enjoyed MULAN, I wanted to make a list of reviews by Asian critics who, quite frankly, bring a range and depth that I could only hope for. To begin, there's the ever-brilliant @JustinCChang: https://twitter.com/JustinCChang/status/1301554266608336897?s=20
. @karenyhan richly unpacks seeing Asian representation on screen. https://twitter.com/karenyhan/status/1301551161187676161?s=20
. @inkookang thoughtfully explains the unevenness Mulan: "With nary a substantial mentor, friend or love interest in sight, though, there’s little to watch about her journey, even if a hot-pink phoenix guides her through her darkest moments." https://twitter.com/inkookang/status/1301554579293663232?s=20
. @nancywyuen thoroughly examines what Mulan means as an atypical Disney princess. https://twitter.com/nancywyuen/status/1301562990764855307?s=20
. @raisingwhasians' MULAN review is personal and affecting and tells of her affinity for the 1998 version. https://twitter.com/raisingwhasians/status/1301554654996828160?s=20
John Nguyen ( @JohnSpartan300)'s review for @NerdReactor discusses the film's pacing and editing issues. https://twitter.com/NerdReactor/status/1301577576410836993?s=20
I've just noticed that @nle318 is putting a similar thread together, and I definitely encourage others to follow it. https://twitter.com/nle318/status/1301561640824049666?s=20
