Disney double bill following the adventures of plucky young Chinese girl Mulan (voice of Ming-Na Wen). In 'Mulan - Musical Masterpiece Edition' (1998), which features extra music videos and a sing-along option, ancient China is under threat of invasion by the barbarian hordes of Shan-Yu (Miguel Ferrer), and calls all able-bodied men to arms to defend their Emperor (Pat Morita). Mulan disguises herself as a boy and joins up in her aged father's place, accompanied by her protectors - guardian dragon Mushu (Eddie Murphy) and lucky cricket Cri-kee (Frank Welker). Mulan trains under the handsome Captain Shang (B.D. Wong), with whom she soon falls in love, and shows herself to be a capable warrior. When she is wounded in battle, however, the secret of Mulan's gender is discovered and she faces exposure and disgrace. In the sequel, 'Mulan 2' (2004), Shang has asked for Mulan's hand in marriage, but their wedding preparations are hampered first by the mischievous Mushu (Mark Moseley), who tries to keep them apart for as long as possible in order to retain his job as Mulan's guardian dragon, and then by a secret mission in which the couple are assigned to escort three princesses across China for their arranged nuptials. But when Mulan discovers that the women aren't looking forward to their weddings, she boldly decides to take an alternative course of action - a decision that will alter the course of history.
