Review of Maleficent (2014) by Savannah R — 19 Jan 2015
An entertaining enough 90 minutes. It's not without it's faults, even some notable ones that could be irritating -- a bit to much expository voice-over at the beginning, the CG sometimes looks good, sometimes looks cartoony, the three fairies are incompetent, and some of the traps are just a bit too convenient, and there's a F.
R.I., and the king's not that great in his role. Still, the film mostly focuses on Jolie, Fanning, and Riley's characters, and they seems to be having a good time and alone carries the film. It mostly looks quite nice, the annoying characters don't overstay their welcome, and although you can see the inevitable fix coming it still works, at least for me.
