POSITIVES…
By far, the best thing about this movie is Angelina Jolie as Maleficent. She looks amazing. She’s given the best lines out of everybody. She’s given a welcome sense of humor that works. She’s involved in all the best scenes in this whole thing.
Michelle Pfeiffer was pretty good in her role too.
Some gorgeous cinematography and set designs here.
There’s a scene during the first act, and one scene during the last act, that I genuinely liked.
I can get behind some of the themes this movie touches on.
The improvements made to the Angelina Jolie version of Maleficent makes me almost forgive the previous movie entry.
NEGATIVES…
nah, the stench from the first movie unfortunately still resonates in this installment
There are some sequences that were just CGI barf.
Those fairy aunts characters? They need to make better CGI designs for them.
Plot conveniences. Cheaters.
Poorly written characters. Can’t they make them more believable?
Some lazy writing all around here.
Without saying a spoiler… A certain somebody is just the worst Queen ever! So frustrating to watch.
Also without saying a spoiler… Most convoluted and unnecessary method of killing certain characters. How did that make sense?
No spoilers once again… That’s an embarrassingly poor attack plan. What did they think was going to happen?
Just one more no spoilers reaction… How stupid can they be? Applies to multiple scenes and characters.
Remember how I said that the best thing about this is Angelina Jolie as Maleficent? How was it possible that she actually didn’t get as much screen time as she should have, for a character that has her name in the movie title?
P.S….
