Still, it's worth going to the cinema.

Maybe this is Disney's usual mode, adapting some familiar fairy tales, this movie is "Sleeping Beauty", and the screenwriter does the opposite, making the protagonist from "Sleeping Beauty" to the curser. When the movie went to "Kiss of True Love", the audience, including me, was really surprised, and even felt a little thunderous. But think about it, the screenwriter raised the level of "true love" from male and female love to "big love", maybe this is the central idea that the whole team wants to express. Angelina Jolie is really still the queen. Even if she wears dark clothes throughout, she feels that her aura is powerful, gorgeous, and her temperament is unparalleled. The protagonist of the movie is not just limited to heroes and positive characters. Li played the elf who was betrayed by her lover in flesh and blood. Perhaps the most terrifying thing in this world is not those monsters and elves with wings, but the "human nature" with a good-looking skin.

Maleficent quotes

  • [last lines]

    Narrator: So you see, the story is not quite as you were told, and I should know, for I was the one they called "Sleeping Beauty". In the end, my kingdom was united not by a hero or a villain, as legend had predicted, but by one who was both hero *and* villain. And her name was Maleficent.

  • Flittle: [as she, Knotgrass, and Thistlewit fly above the forest, on their way to finding Aurora] It's so good to be small again! Look at my *feet*! I love my tiny little *feet*!

    Knotgrass: Pay attention! We have to find Aurora, or the king will have our heads!
