Last night my family had a movie night together and we watched the pre-screening of the remake of the Disney movie 'Mulan' that is due to be released on Disney plus channel on 4 December. In order to pay to watch the pre-leased movie, it's around $40.00 and can be watched multiple times.
I heard that a lot of the scenes were shot in NZ and directed by a NZ director as well during 2018 - 2019. The movie differs a lot to the original musical although it does feature some of the original music in the background for those movie buffs out there.
Disney Mulan enthusiasts might be somewhat disappointed as the storyline veers away from the original in many parts but the basic storyline is kept with a young woman entering a male-only military training camp disguised as a male, only to later to reveal herself as a highly acclaimed warrior woman bringing honour to the name of her family.
I think the highlight for me at the movie night was the cinnamon & coconut buns that my younger sister made with homebaked pizza and the Smores ('Some-more' which is oven baked marshmallows and chocolate in a biscuit sandwich if you don't have an open fire). Family time together at my parents house in enjoying each other's company over an interesting movie during this Alert level 2.5 lockdown time...
