Linda Woolverton

This movie certainly rouses some sympathy for Maleficent. In the original animated film (and fairytale) she's spiteful over not being invited to a baby's christening/blessing. Like bro, there's more important things to be mad about, and this movie gives Maleficent a good reason for her actions.

I realise nostalgia is a huge factor for me in how much I enjoy this film, but even so, I think this is a great family movie even without the nostalgia glasses. And the main orchestral theme might be my favourite one of all time.

A overall fun and creative sequel to Maleficent, and gives Aurora/Sleeping Beauty more of a role/agency than the original animated film or fairy tale ever did.

A fun-loving American bulldog pup, a hilarious Himalayan cat, and a wise old golden retriever embark on a long trek through the rugged wilderness of the Sierra Nevada mountains in a quest to reach home and their beloved owners.
