Trivia
The exterior and some of the interior sets of Auradon Prep is the same ones used for Xavier's School in X2 (2003), the Luthor mansion in Smallville (2001) and the Queen mansion in Arrow (2012).

Goofs
Mal tells her mother that the coronation is on Friday and Fairy Godmother says Family Day is on a Sunday. Yet during Family Day, Mal refers to the coronation as tomorrow, which would be Monday.

Quotes
Mal: The strength of evil is good as none, which stands before four hearts as one!

Alternate versions
Subsequent rebroadcasts of the film after 2015 moved the end credits to the beginning of the movie and removed the end credits video with Shawn Mendes singing "Believe", replacing it with the last few minutes of "Set it Off".

7/10

Worth a watch

Definitely a cute little movie, and certainly worth a watch. The plot may be clichéd to a point, but the characters are pretty likable and the overall atmosphere is fun. Kristen Chenoweth is delightful as Maleficent, and even adds a couple of nods to Glinda, something which other Wicked fans are sure to pick up on. Unlike some family comedies, this one doesn't rely on crude humor to be funny and instead remains appropriate for all ages. Disney fans will enjoy the little tributes to some of the classics. I would definitely recommend this film to anyone looking for some light, musical entertainment. I'm looking forward to the sequel!
