Summary:
The story of Disney's most iconic villain continues. After sharing many happy years together, Maleficent and her goddaughter Aurora begin to question the tangled ties that bind them as they are torn apart by Aurora's upcoming wedding, unexpected allies, and new forces at play. But their love proves strong. "See it for the inventive, elaborate costumes (designed by Ellen Mirojnick), for the tiny-albeit slightly creepy-mushroom people and the miniature fairies wearing dandelion tutus, and for Jolie..."--Time Magazine. "What the story boils down to, then, is a mixed-marriage parable, one that could be panderingly 'on trend,' but which the filmmakers handle fairly thoughtfully."--Boston Globe. "Jolie's magnetism, plus the way she toes the line between being a fairy version of Batman and a menacing mistress of not-quite-evil-but-pretty-close, is why these 'Maleficent' movies work."--USA Today.
