Maleficent is a movie filled with action, romance, and mystery, and is one of the best movies I’ve ever watched! It provides a very impressive perspective on human vs. creature concepts and is filled with dark magic. This movie provides an…

I really enjoyed this movie. Saw it at the theater, and finally had to buy the DVD, which I have watched several times. I don't normally care for Angelina Jolie, but she did a great job as Maleficent, and her scene with her own little girl…

Wow this movie is very entertaining to watch although some CGI could be improved.

Pretty and well-acted, but having Maleficent as the only competent character in the movie was a tad grating.

To be honest, the first time that I watched this movie I thought it was a bit dark and morbid. You probably shouldn't watch this with kids under the age of six. Overall this was a very entertaining movie. I havent seen the sequel yet but I…

Angelina's performance in this film was excellent. We really enjoyed the spin on the classic tale.

A visually stunning retelling of "Sleeping Beauty" from the "evil" fairy's point of view. Angelina is perfect in this role.

Great twist on the classic Fairy Tale. The acting and casting are both good and the CGI is pretty decent. Angelina absolutely nails this role.

I despise this film. I thought the actors did a great job with what they were given, and the film is visually stunning. However, the story itself is terrible. I have always said that if you have to demonize other characters to make the…

I love this side of the story about Sleeping Beauty and the "villain". I think Maleficent's story is good and think they did a good job with the story line and plot of the movie

I really enjoyed watching this movie. I liked seeing a new perspective to the classic story, and I found this version to be very interesting. Disney was very creative with this film, and made the story and characters very real and…

A visually striking re-imagining of SLEEPING BEAUTY, MALEFICENT exceeded my expectations. The story was simple but Angelina Jolie knocked it out of the park with her performance. And since the focus is always on her, every scene is…

Yet another attempt to justify the villains of fiction, giving a backstory to the evil with in Sleeping Beauty. Makes an interesting story, though little more.
