Maleficent: Mistress of Evil [DVD] [2019]

O M G!!! This is an EXCELLENT movie! Not too often does a sequel outshine it's predessor but Maleficent Mistress Of Evil does just that! This movie was great from beginning to end and as much as I LOVED the 1st movie, I love this one even more. Michelle Pfeiffer played her character to perfection and Angelina Jolie gave one of the best performances I've seen in her career. Everything from the sound to the crisp 4k video was outstanding! Everything was so colorful and looked absolutely amazing. Disney has done a great job with this movie. It's a feature you can watch with the entire family. I highly recommend this movie especially if you liked the 1st one.

This is an amazing movie for the all family. Excellent technology disc 4K ultra HD + Blu-ray. Bestbuy is my favorite technological store. I hope never disappear from ours neighborhoods. I always bought my technological's items in Bestbuy. I missed the 3D high quality from the shelf. Thank you Bestbuy.

The Effects in this movie are fantastic, it's worth watching over and over. If you have a surround sound crank it up.

i watched is beautiful and had no problem love it . was worth it to bye it....

More fighting and violence. Might want to review without youngsters in the room. Otherwise, very happy with storyline.

I haven’t liked too many of the live action remakes of the Disney classic, but this one I really do!!! I absolutely love Angelina Jolie as Maleficent!!! This movie has it all, it has funny moments, and sad ones. I will give no spoilers, you must watch!!! I highly recommend!!!

This was a great sequel to the first film. Greatly expanded on the concept and meaning of love and family. Would definitely recommend this.

For a movie that primes its audience to experience a tale of villainy and "pure evil" as incarnated by the title character of Maleficent (Angelina Jolie returning), Maleficent: Mistress of Evil largely doesn't fulfill its promise as the character is a mistress in the sense she's in a position of authority or control, but never does she wield these positions in ways one would exclusively associate with or consider to be "evil". Misunderstood, sure, but evil? Nah. Like the 2014 original, this sequel is more telling the audience a story we were unaware of concerning the character with the intention of ultimately altering our opinion of her and gaining a newfound sympathy for the character as her representation in the 1959 Disney animated classic was apparently a by-product of those circumstances and not "the whole story"; a reputation built off a single perspective of not only an isolated incident, but one with some justification as far as Maleficent's emotions were concerned even if her actions never could be. While that 2014 film was more or less restricted by the original tale of Sleeping Beauty (we've seen the iconic cursing of the baby moment in live action, so let's move on) this second chapter in Maleficent's story breaks free of those constraints and pushes the narrative past Aurora's (Elle Fanning, also returning) sixteenth birthday and on into adulthood where she is now set to wed the re-cast Prince Philip (Harris Dickinson instead of Brenton Thwaites) as they start a life of their own together whereas Maleficent had now inadvertently become something of a mother figure to this young woman she originally cursed and has therefore only recently come to feel as if she's gained the genuine love of what she might describe as a family. Jolie's Maleficent exudes this gracefulness as embodied through the strong presence of Jolie herself as she is not only a warrior and commander, but a woman who is complex in her deep, emotional feelings that the film demonstrates are also possible for someone of such strong nature to possess. It is this characterization and the breaking of such long-standing archetypes that truly allows this sequel to outshine not only its predecessor, but the majority of these live-action Disney re-makes or re-tellings. Director Joachim Rønning (Kon-Tiki, Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales) takes over from Robert Stromberg and brings with him an aesthetic less reliant on big, CGI spectacle (though there is still plenty of this) and a visual prowess more interested in broadening the scope of the world the first film only hinted at. At the same time, Linda Woolverton's screenplay brings together a trifecta of female characters that serve as the heart and soul of the themes of the narrative coalescing in a sequel that not only surpasses the quality of the original (which, admittedly-was not a high bar) by doing everything that original wanted to do, only better.
