Maleficent: Mistress of Evil ** (2019, Angelina Jolie, Michelle Pfeiffer, Elle Fanning, Harris Dickinson, Sam Riley, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Ed Skrein, Robert Lindsay) – Movie Review
Angelina Jolie looks magnificent as Maleficent: Mistress of Evil (2019) but it’s a no-acting-required type of role, with her dialogue spare and sparce. As the movie is a CGI fest, they could just as well […]
