Angelina Jolie and her cheekbones return to the inert franchise to glare at Michelle Pfeiffer. Read Peter Travers' one-star MaleficentMistressofEvil review
Screenwriter Linda Woolverton brought in two more scribes to jazz up this dull party, but all they do is rip offwithout capturing a scrap of the fun. How will it delight family audiences to watch the Queen wage genocidal war against Maleficent and the fairies? But chances are they won’t know what’s going on anyway, given the clumsy staging of Norwegian director Joachim Rønning, who co-directed and seems to have left the heavy lifting to production and costume designers.
So where’s Maleficent in all this? Unlike cursed audiences, she gets to disappear from time to time, returning for a series of false endings — I counted at least nine — that will bore you so breathless you’ll lose the strength to run for the exits. But there is one part of that’s life-affirming: when it’s finally over, you’ll feel like you escaped from being buried alive for two hours.
