Synopsis taken from IMDb
A vindictive fairy is driven to curse an infant princess only to realize the child may be the only one who can restore peace
I generally tend to stay away from live action films by Disney. Such films as "Enchanted" (2007), and the other happy-go-lucky princess stories do nothing for me. If I'm going to watch a flick of this content and material, I think it goes over easier as an animated cartoon. Real people in these stories make the cheesiness of it all really hard to swallow. But when I first caught wind of a film based on Maleficent from the 1959 animated motion picture "Sleeping Beauty", my eagerness shifted up and down. Upon hearing the news, I was worried as to how it would turn out.
