Despite highly promising trailers, a seemingly compelling concept, and lead actress Angelina Jolie giving a strong performance in a role she clearly relishes, Disney’s live-action fairy tale re-imagining Maleficent fails to live up to its potential (or to my own high hopes going into the theater). But that doesn’t appear likely to harm its box office performance. Overseas buzz and domestic opening weekend momentum look strong enough to help the film to a successful theatrical run.
