If you loved Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, try Maleficent
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Adventure / Family / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Maleficent is
An animated villain gets a spa day and a backstory. Maleficent’s peaceful forest life ends when betrayal turns her heart to stone, launching a generational feud over a cursed baby. A feather-light fantasy with surprisingly sharp thorns.
