it's another Disney movie. this is another one of those movies where you know what's gonna happen most of the time. but this time i actually got surprised on some specific occasions, which was a breath of fresh air, in my opinion. when you sit down and prepare to watch a Disney movie, you have certain expectations about how the movie is going to be. when i sat down to watch this movie, i had those same expectations from Disney. but i was pleasantly surprised when Disney for once actually did something different with the story.
the plot was intriguing enough, i did like the good/evil concept that was going on through the movie. but i have to say, Angelina Jolie is definitely the highlight of this movie. she outplays everyone else, without doubt. i like the new take on the "sleeping beauty" story. i think they pulled of the concept decently well. but then again, you have that predictable world that Disney loves to create, and that may be fine for all the kids, but i just want something more original from Disney. i know that that's the Disney trademark, but i don't enjoy it that much. but in this movie, Disney did go towards a more original storyline, which is really positive.
overall, this movie is another one of those predictable Disney movies, but with some new additions. so if you have a kid, then i think he will like this movie a lot, it's a great "family" movie. but for people like me,who likes creativity form movies (even Disney) are most likely going to find this movie to be averagely good, with some goodies along the way.
hope you found this review helpful :)
