Determined to make her own path in life, Princess Merida (Kelly Macdonald) defies a custom that brings chaos to her kingdom. Granted one wish, Merida must rely on her bravery and her archery skills to undo a beastly curse.
Five peaceful years have passed since the demise of the duplicitous monarch, King Stefan, in Maleficent (2014), and, now, an unforeseen but joyous event is about to unite the mortal Kingdom of Ulstead and the fairy-realm of the enchanted Moors. However, once more, odious treason stands in the way of true young love, as malicious envy, unbounded ambition and ignoble thoughts creep in the hearts of men. Now, two neighboring worlds find themselves divided by fear and prejudice, and, sadly, the impending union paves the way for an all-out confrontation. Suddenly, the magnificent winged sprite, Maleficent, and the lovely Princess Aurora are caught in the middle. Does love always end well?Written by

Alternate Versions
The film's ScreenX release presented the film in ultra-widescreen meaning there was more picture information visible in the left and right of the frame than in normal theaters and on home video. See more »
The battle scene bought down the movie. It was a complete drag, and was too one sided for the major part. Not sure if the screenplay writers were aware that parents dont bring kids to Disney movies to watch prolonged bio genocides.
