A beautiful, pure-hearted young woman, Maleficent has an idyllic life growing up in a peaceable forest kingdom, until one day when an invading army threatens the harmony of the land. She rises to be the land's fiercest protector, but she ultimately suffers a ruthless betrayal – an act that begins to turn her heart into stone. Bent on revenge, Maleficent faces an epic battle with the invading King's successor and, as a result, places a curse upon his newborn infant Aurora. As the child grows, Maleficent realizes that Aurora holds the key to peace in the kingdom – and to Maleficent's true happiness as well.

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Teodora Maleficent ,the evil fairy of Disney's Sleeping Beauty ,is among the scariest Disney villains and my favorite Disney villain.This movie has very good sets and costumes.The characters are altered (Aurora's father,Philip and the fairies especially).This movie robs Maleficent of her evil nature .She reminded me more of an evil fairy from the original fairy tale than Maleficent from the animated movie(who is evil to the core and among the first vilains to say Hell in an animated movie).Best acting came from Angelina Jolie as Maleficent.She is suitably menacing and elegant.Diaval was also good and had a very good chemistry with Maleficent.Overall,good but sorta empty.
Miracles Happen I've watched this movie twice because, the story, the environment, the costumes, the CGI and the highly convincing acting is simply great. Angelina's performance is incredible; she has to express a complete set of emotions all condensed in the same movie. I particularly like how the story develops and how things turn bitter when you least expect it. I put this movie in the same category of those great fantasy movies such as Willow, The Dark Crystal and Legend. A masterpiece!
xinzhaorekter This movie is, good, that is the best i can say, its better than all of the other disney live action movies, its well made and has some good charm put into it, tbh, its kinda good,its a clever twist on a good movie
Smoreni Zmaj Told from the point of view of "evil" fairy who cast the curse. Disney finally decided to leave behind black-and-white, two-dimensional, "good vs evil" way of portraying the world and released magnificent anti-hero movie in shades of grey. "Heroes" do not look so innocent any more and "villain" gets proper background story that explains how it came to the story we remember from our childhood. Either this story has no holes or I missed them being hypnotized by beautiful scenery and wonderful effects. Elle Fanning is not as beautiful as her character name tells but she played her role very well, while Angelina Jolie nailed hers. There's no point to further analyze this movie because I have no objections at all and if I start praising its qualities it could take forever. It's simply perfect, maybe even the best Disney feature film so far. Although it's tight race with Pirates.10/10
