Critics Consensus

While it's far from cursed, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil too rarely supports its impressive cast and visuals with enough magical storytelling to justify its existence.

NOT ENOUGH MALEFICENT! This movie is pretty long but Angelina Jolie AKA Maleficent is only in about 20 minutes of it total. Pretty disappointing as most people watch it for Maleficent. The best parts are the beginning and end. It seems more so like they just threw something together than actually took time on it. The dialogue was also incredibly cheesy, uck.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

Angelina Jolie was great in this role! She adopted the role of a sorceress with a disdain for mankind wonderfully, yet at the same time, you could always sense the undercurrent of her love for her adopted child and the desire to see humans and the fey living together in peace. Special effects and cinematography were excellent.

There's a lot of money on the screen, Angelina Jolie is once again really good in the film, the musical score is great, and some of the action sequences are cool. But the story this time around is even less investing than last time.

"Mistress of Evil" has its heart in the right place, but good intentions can't overcome a nagging blockbuster familiarity.

But Why Tho? A Geek Community

While Maleficent: Mistress of Evil suffers from treading down some fairly well worn paths it does it with exceptional skill.

Rated: 8.5/10

Much like the original, there's very little charm and excitement to be found in Maleficent: Mistress of Evil. While Jolie looks impressive in her full Maleficent costume, there is little reason to watch the film outside of that.

Rated: 4/10
