Review of Maleficent: Mistress of Evil (2019) by Arkeden — 20 Oct 2019

7/10. "Mistress of Justified." This was a great sequel that surpassed the original. Great special effects, character designs, and acting. It’s simply magical. Michelle Pfeiffer kills it as the evil Queen Ingrith in a way that just makes you hate her guts.

The only negatives I would remark on is the dramatic and abrupt change in tone after the war scene. It doesn't fit well going into the final act (seeming shoe-horned in). Especially considering the queens high treason and war crimes where she gets off basically scott-free and where her and the other's misdeeds are quickly pardoned and forgotten about.

There are additional story inconsistencies regarding the crimson powders effects from the first half of the story to the second half. But all-in-all, worth watching.
