Fast Cap - Maleficent

Fast Cap is a re-cap of many movies that I've seen that I have't written about in a year.

Maleficent

How would you feel is the guy/gal that you loved since childhood decided to one day pull out your chest and then stomp on it? Now I can see why Angelina's Maleficent character decides to say, "Screw you all!". It's like 2pac on his song Hit 'Em Up: "fuck Mobb Deep, fuck Biggie, fuck Bad Boy as a staff, record label, and as a mother fucking crew. And if you want to be down with Bad Boy, then fuck you too. Chino XL, fuck you too. All you mother fuckers, fuck you too." Except she's along the lines of, "Fuck Stefan, fuck Flittle, fuck Thistlewit and, especially, fuck that Knotgrass. And if you want to be down with humans, then fuck you, too!"

And she feels this way for a pretty long against all humans. Does she get over it? Yeah, of course! Why? Because a little blonde girl named Aurora comes into the frame and maternal instincts kick in, because the three fairies assigned to watch Aurora are super inept. Three fairies...with magic powers...alone...in a thick wooded area...cannot use magic to even make the roof stop leaking? The movie is a family movie mixed with a couple scenes of pretty clever and competent cinematography. Overall, not bad.

What makes this movie work: 
Angelina Jolie, hands down. Some cool cinematography. Light-heartedness in the later parts of the film...the bookends...those are darker than 90% cocoa dark chocolate.

What makes this movie weak:
Uneven tones. You've got Sharlto Copely doing a Shakespearean play, while everyone else is having a good time laughing and playing in the strawberry fields. Terribly animated creatures that you never get to see beyond some lame montages in the beginning and at the end.

When to watch:
Dollar theater
