Maleficent (2014)

Disney is on a roll. They have retold stories in much better ways. The stories were revamped for our times and truly, there is goodness in everyone, even in the most mundane person. No one was born evil, but...
Anyways, let's not go there.
MALEFICENT did not start as a bad person. The narrator(if you are very keen, you would know whose version this story is) seems to know her very well. She recounted her story from her childhood and how she turned that way. The story is fair to the villainess.
I love the scenes, the graphics and needless to say, but I'll say it anyway, the story.
I never expected to like it this much. Well, I know not everyone would agree with me.
Do I think the G rating is correct? No. I think it should have been rated PG. There were a lot of scenes that scared the children. Anyways, what's done is done.
Oh, and by the way, it's NOT as golden as FROZEN, but it's still magnificent!

Even if I enjoyed the film, I somewhat agree with this person's point of view: Scott Davis'
