A fantasy adventure that picks up several years after Maleficent, in which audiences learned of the events that hardened the heart of Disney’s most notorious villain and drove her to curse a baby Princess Aurora, Maleficent II continues to explore the complex relationship between the horned fairy and the soon to be Queen, as they form new alliances and face new adversaries in their struggle to protect the moors and the magical creatures that reside within.
This was a very enjoyable fantasy movie. Angelina Jolie was excellent again as Maleficent. The action was good, the pacing was good and everything built up to a huge payoff fantasy creatures battle. Was there a lot of substance to it? Not really. But was a fun ride at the movie theater? Yes!
I would recommend people checking this out. It was not a must see by any means but it was a very enjoyable ride type of a movie.
