Maleficent. Maybe Maleficent (Angelina Jolie) was just a wronged fairy who took her anger too far. If so, the real evil party here were the Flower Pixies (Junno Temple, Imelda Staunton, Lesley Manville) who I think cursed Princess Aurora (Elle Fanning) with infinite happiness. I really do think that Aurora was way too forgiving of Maleficent. Maleficent put an awful curse on Aurora, but Aurora can do nothing but smile it away.
Though I found Angelina Jolie wonderful, I just couldn't get over my hatred of Aurora's "curse" -- as defined by me. I think the Flower Pixies made Aurora into a badly written one dimensional character.
