- Hey everyone! Maleficent Reaction is today's video!
Join me as I watch Maleficent for the first time and really enjoy it! Maleficent spins the tale we all know into a dark, revenge filled story that we never knew!
As a beautiful young woman of pure heart, Maleficent (Angelina Jolie) has an idyllic life in a forest kingdom. When an invading army threatens the land, Maleficent rises up to become its fiercest protector. However, a terrible betrayal hardens her heart and twists her into a creature bent on revenge. She engages in an epic battle with the invading king's successor, then curses his newborn daughter, Aurora -- realizing only later that the child holds the key to peace in the kingdom.

Hey everyone! So yes I’m aware that I made a mistake with her curse… no need to remind of it . See you tomorrow for maleficent mistress of evil
I have been waiting for this movie reaction for a very long time
I'm excited!
I did like the 1st maleficent movie. But the 2nd one , maleficent mistress of evil is better in my opinion.
Hey Cody you should watch Rio it’s a super good movie and there is a part 2 about Rio is about a blue bird who can’t fly and try to find a way who to fly you won’t regret this dission please give it a try you will love it o promise you Cody please do it on RUclips you will love it
First and second are great and well done plot
The scene where Maleficent tried to revoke the curse. She didn’t revoke it, she tried but the curse was far too strong, even for the one who cast it.
Yeah she made it so "no power on Earth can change it".
@@marveldreamworks5330 Guess she should’ve gone to space and reversed it there.
She definitely subconsciously foresaw herself having a change of heart when she was corrupted by revenge
When this came out I watched a lot of interviews. The concept of him drugging her and cutting off her wings was supposed to be the equivalent of someone waking up to realize they had been raped. Maleficent, I don't think ever forgave Stephan but she realized that aurora wasn't to be blamed for what stephan did, kind of like how a child that results from rape shouldn't be punished for how they came into the world. She decided to "forgive" him because of the love of aurora. She couldn't take back the curse, but her love for aurora did. That's how I see it at least
Yea I thought it was very powerful the way they did it
"Beloved by all who meet her." That was part of the curse and blessing, and it even works on her.
The curse was NOT revoked. She tried, and failed.
I liked this version of Sleeping Beauty. It makes much more sense that a motherly kind of love would break the curse rather than some guy she meets once in the forest.
For example snow white 🤷♀️🤷♀️
Cody, Maleficent couldn't revoke the curse cause it was set and she made sure no one could change it. Not even her.
Fun fact Cody:
The scene when little Aurora actually meets Maleficent and grips her horns is actually her daughter.
Mostly because all the kids they tried to cast to play as little Aurora scream and cried seeing her in costume. Her daughter was the only one who would be walking up to her and hugging her because she knew that woman is her mother.
Well, she couldn't break her own spell, in that scene, you can see that her golden magic is being blocked by her own green magic, and an echo repeats the words she said about no power on Earth can break the curse
She TRIED to revoke her curse, but her spell was set so that no power on earth can break it. So she failed to revoke it
Yep she said no power on earth, not even her own. So she kinda hung herself metaphorically
Maleficent’s scream when she wakes up without her wings haunts me:( it gives me chills and I just.. oh my god like wow
To be fair, when Aurora says Maleficent is her fairy godmother, she's kinda right. Maleficent did sort of give her a gift on his christening... at least the "beloved by all who sees her" part. I'd also note that Maleficent saw her, and therefore had to love her.
Maleficent isn’t the greatest movie ever, but it’s fine and quite creative in many ways. It’s definitely a lot better than many other Disney remakes. For me, though, the best character in it is Diaval, I just love him. His character is one thing that wasn’t just changed, it was truly developed since the original. Also, Sam Riley is awesome, he’s perfect for this role)
By the way, Maleficent really is her Gogmother, technically. She was a fairy at the Christening, she gave her a gift, so, she is.
Hope you’ll react to Maleficent II, it’s also worth watching.
Yeah but it’s such a shame that original ideas of him falling for Maleficent weren’t present and the second film turned him into a clown sadly
@@ladabudilova9262 yes, certainly, their relationship could have been explored further. It’s a pity it wasn’t( They would have made a great couple, I mean, they already raised a kid together and they’ve known each other for 20+ years)
So Maleficent TRIED to revoke her curse but she was unable to. That's because when she added the qualifier of "true love's kiss" she also ensured that would be the only thing that could end it, that no power on Earth could undo this curse (not even, tragically, her own.)
As for Stephan cutting off Maleficent's wings (which, by the way, he did using the iron wire hidden in his string of beads,) I am of the belief that he still loved her at the time. However, while that love prevented him from killing her in her drugged sleep it wasn't strong enough to convince him to live on the run with her, forsaking castle comforts for forests and bogs while the entire kingdom seeks their heads. By taking her wings he was able to convince the king that she was dead. This would ensure that Maleficent could live without being hunted, and by extension give him the crown. Of course he likely realized that he would never be forgiven for taking something so precious to her when she trusted him the most, and there was no way that he could admit to the kingdom that had gathered for Aurora's birth that he had lied to them all and gained the crown illicitly, so he didn't even try.
She TRIED to revoke it but couldn’t (which was a really interesting twist when I first saw the movie. I was like ‘holy shit! She really tried to get rid of it?!’) because when she cast it, she said ONLY true love’s kiss could save her. That’s why she was so intent on trying to bring the prince to her. She thought maybe…just maybe he’d save her.
And seeing her kiss of true love (as a mother) saving Aurora was the greatest scene in this movie for me. I love this movie FAR more than the original animated version. Perhaps I saw the animated much too late when we’re into the era of the badass princesses that have a personality and take care of themselves pretty well (rapunzel, Anna, Elsa, Merida for example) and don’t NEED a prince to save them and that’s why I found the animated one so…BORING!!!!
So this one was great; seeing a twist on the story and such.
22:24 True love kiss for this version: Aurora was kissed from the new mother. The new mother is Maleficent. Her heart was full of hate and anger. Aurora shows her happiness and her heart change into love and... new family
Yes! One of the most underrated Disney Live Action Remakes!
It was in the wording of the original curse: "This curse shall last to the end of time - no power on earth can change it". Not even herself.
one of the things I really love about this movie is how very fitting Maleficent's curse is to how she herself was violated. the death-like sleep; the true-love's kiss which for Maleficent doesn't actually exist because she was violated by Stephen, who she thought was her true love. all those little details were so amazing to me. plus the obvious twist that true love's kiss for Aurora ended up coming from Maleficent herself. glad you enjoyed it Cody!
I love these two movies. It's a shame not everyone else does, but what else is there to do? Fun fact, when Maleficent is using her magic for good, it's a golden color. When it's being used for evil, it's a sickly green color
"Loved by all who meet her.."well maleficent fell on her own curse
Maleficent went through a lot of pain about Aurora and it was well-deserved. No matter what Stefan did, his daughter did nothing. If you hurt an innocent person for something that another family member did, this is always evil.
Maleficent doomed herself with the curse. She said "beloved by ALL who meet her" that includes Maleficent.
So, based on modern Disney's cannon, this is the way the story actually went, and the original cartoon story is, in universe, a fairytale told to make the prince and "good guys" seem heroic. After all, Maleficent did end up killing the king. This is why the good fairies seem less competent, why the Prince's "true love's kiss" didn't work, and why Maleficent is more of a grey character instead of the "villain."
Its more like an alternate version. Like Wicked style version of Sleeping Beauty. Its a "what if" it happened this way. If you accept it as that it is a lot more fun and interesting standing on its own.
@@fightingfaerie I agree. I still like the original character of Maleficent better and appreciate the characters of the three "good" fairies more.
One of Disney's best anti-hero origin story tied with Cruella! 😍
I saw this film at the movie theaters with Sleeping Beauty fresh in my mind after rewatching it beforehand. Did I enjoy Maleficent? Yes, it was an interesting origin story of one of Disney’s greatest villains. This film was not what I expected, aside from what I already knew about the animated film. But I digress, it was a very good film.
Angelina’s portrayal of Maleficent was very strong, I enjoyed her a lot. However, I mostly prefer the original, animated character myself. Great reaction Cody, thanks for sharing!
When she tried to revoke the curse and failed it. She heard herself when she made the curse . The whispiring voice tells "no power on earth can change it"
maleficient actually couldn't revoke her own curse because when she was placing it she said "this curse will last until the end of time, no power on earth can break it" which includes her own
Little fact about her discovering the wings are gone: Angelina Jolie said the scene was one giant metaphor for being violated. The drugging, the pain, realizing what happened, it's all right there.
P.S. I'm only wording it as such to get past the censors.
I honestly enjoy Maleficent way more than Sleeping Beauty that can put me in a snooze. Angelina does an amazing job in this!! In early script her & Diaval were gonna be a couple to raise Adora as their daughter. Which it does show in the film either way
Angelina Jolie has stated the scene where Maleficent wakes up after Stephan cut her wings off was meant to sort of symbolize s*xual assault. Her scream of agony is absolutely shattering
This is one of my favorite movies ever and I've seen it so many times... but I never made the connection between Stefan drugging Maleficent and Aurora's death-sleep. The kiss and the 16th birthday, yes, but not the sleep. Glorious :D
13:02 that's her real life daughter! She was the only one that wasn't scared of Angelina in costume.
This movie is very underrated and you should watch it as the fact that it was very unique when it came out
It was the first movie about a villains back story
I always like maleficent but this movie made me love her even more.
Yes, that is true loves' kiss...... She never said it couldn't be a "mothers'" love for "her" child.
When Maleficent created the curse she only thought about the true love between a couple, which both she and Stephan had left behind at that point, making the condition to break the curse theoretically impossible, at least on their horizon.
However Maleficent messed it up since she never excluded the true love between parents and children, which is something she learns to feel over the course of the movie.
I literally said that it didn’t have to be from the prince lol right after she woke up
I noticed. I interupted the video and wrote my comment literally the moment before you said it.
Well please next time finish watching before giving opinions 😁
Heheh, well, patience is a virtue but sadly it is quite apparently none of mine.
Though you admittedly have a rather good point there. I'll try not to forget.
Anyways, thanks for the reaction. I am looking forward to the next one as I haven't watched the sequel yet. So this will be new for me.
I absolutely love your reactions, Cody!! When I first saw Maleficent, I was so surprised how so well done they made this movie! The second is just as awesome!! I also love that little light display in the background! Keep up those amazing reactions! 🥰🥰
ik cody already addressed it in the pinned comment but every time he said "she already revoked the curse" i died a lil inside from second hand embarrassment lmao it's ok cody, i get how that can be confusing
She couldn't reverse the curse
She tried but she made it permanent before so she couldn't do anything
I love this movie which surprised me cause I hated sleeping beauty but this movie is just amazing to me
Your reactions always make me very happy and smiley
"She got burned by iron man" best cuote 😆
"this curse shall last until the end of time. No power on earth can change it".
It's 1:49am here and I am still watching your videos. Worth it 😅
Lmao she didn’t break the curse she tried to but she wasn’t able to
16:09 i dont know if this is what your talking about in your pin, but just in case
She couldn't remove it because as she was setting the curse she said "no magic can remove this curse" that would include her own
No power on earth can change the curse
The novelization of this film apparently confirmed Stephen's sociopathy from the first time he appears in the story. I hadn't read it, so it was up in the air what Stephen's motives were for mutilating his oldest friend. In fact, before I learned about the novelization, I was rather fond of the concept of moral ambiguity. I wanted to believe his motives were pure, and any perceived benefits resulting from this violence against her are only a means to an end.
Him: she revoked the curse
Everyone else: it didn’t work
He didn’t just cut them off he burned them off, since the chains were iron
i was screaminf when you kept saying she revoked her curse.
ok?
@@ItsTotallyCody if you took this the wrong way, I didn’t mean for it to be offensive. It was just a joke loved the reaction!
Here's some interesting research I found on the actual story:
Apparently the spinning wheel is a metaphor for growing up.
The Curse was essentially Maleficent saying, "She will be given the chance to grow up."
By burning them, the king was saying, "She will NEVER grow up!"
One of the fairies is played by Imelda Staunton who played Umbridge in the Harry Potter movies
She cant revoke the curse. She said it herself "no power on earth can change it"
so a power outside earth could have?
25:25 If u didn’t notice, there’s a huge beauty and the beast reference here. King stephen’s death is pretty much the same. It’s just like how Gaston died. The beast fought Gaston and was about to kill him until Gaston begged for his life and the beast let him go. Then Gaston attacks the beast and ends up dying and falling off the palace when he would’ve lived if he just left
Typically people who have not seen this movie will often say that the part when maleficent wakes up and discovers that her wings are missing, is too dramatic, like her crying and screaming is too dramatic.
I really hate it when people say that, just because well she woke up to figure out two of her main body parts are missing, not only she confused, but it’s obviously very painful, so I don’t get it when people don’t like that reaction, because that is very realistic to me. If I woke up to figure out that both of my legs are missing I would be both scared confused screaming on the top of my lungs, screaming bloody murder because I had no clue who or what or why somebody would take my legs. I will have the same reaction as what I’m saying.
Jolie herself has states the scene was meant to symbolize sexual assault. In my opinion that makes her acting in thst scene even more powerful
I didn't know see it this way before until people starting saying it but when Maleficant's wings were gone, it symbolizes someone getting raped which is truely tragic
i love these movies! i personally think theyre underrated
I love love LOVE the Maleficent movies!! I think I love the 2nd one more! Angelina Joli is amazing and it's definitely a brilliant twist on the original tale 😁😁😁
Maleficent tried to undone the curse but it didn't work cause she said when she did the curse that no power on earth can change the curse
One of the best live action remakes, i like that it was different from the original. Great visuals and acting. Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning were perfectly cast.
Sometimes, true love’s kiss isn’t romantic.
Sometimes it’s a fairy godmother and her beastie forest dwelling mud throwing child.
Even she was a memorable Disney villain in Sleeping Beauty that got her movie even she had different appearances through out the year and what’s cool she had a memorable role in the Kingdom Hearts series
Fun fact, even me as child understood she didn’t revoke the curse
You too thought about Queen of Pain when you looked at her horns?
I don’t know what that is lol sorry
@@ItsTotallyCody Lady from Dota 2
Of course, little Aurora is just so dang cute. And she's quite believable about not being the least bit afraid of Maleficent. Probably because little Aurora was played by Angelina Jolie's youngest daughter. All the straight-up child actors they tried were just too afraid of her. But her daughter looked at "Maleficent," and just saw "mommy."
I love this movie back in the day
This scene when maleficent give the curse Is the best iconic scene.
How can you watch a movie so inattentively...
Thanks for watching!!
Cody, I’m getting really distracted by the whole lightshow you’ve been going on, both on the wall and the mic….
Love Maleficent! It’s a great movie, and Angelina is doing a good job 🥰
It was really annoying, that you got the fact about the curse being revoked wrong though ☝️ I think you would have enjoyed it more, if you had gotten it right!
Umm thanks?
@@ItsTotallyCody I was just hoping you might turn it off 🙈🙈🙈 I wanna listen to you, but the light is distracting me from it 😝
And I love your videoes so much!! You have such a good heart 🥰
I’m not gonna turn it off lol it’s a nice background
Watch Cruella, I was pleasantly surprised by it. It's really good.
I want a reaction of the live action Cinderella
The young Aurora that played with her horns was played by Angelina Jolie's daughter, the other kids were scared of her
Fun fact: toddler Maleficent is actually Angelina Jolie's real life daughter! She recommended her because her character's makeup scared a lot of child actors!
Also fun fact the little girl playing aurora in her childhood it's actually Angelina's daughter, all of the other kids were yoo scared of her in the costume 😂
I explain to you in case you haven't heard it, when Maleficent spelled Aurora said there was no power on Earth to alter it, so our dear fairy couldn't revoke it
little aurora the one that she told i don't like children was her and Brad's daughter
She tried to break curse but the curse ment to be not break
"He didn't do it No"
me "He did do it Yes"
funny thing is if you think about Maleficent's curse she not only couldnt break it "no power on earth can break it" but she also says "loved by all who know her"
25:18 i hope this sticks, Steffon just got the Gaston treatment
Okay, not to beat a dead horse here, but...
Now that you have a better understanding of the curse, its ins and outs, and the stakes having been raised so much because of its imminence, would that have changed how you feel about the film, its characters, or its tone?
This is the earliest ive been for one of cody's video and im so happy it was Maleficent🥰
Fun fact at 13:05 every child was scared of Maleficent so they use Angelina Jolie daughter for This scene
I like to think eventually Maleficent and Diaval(the crow) fall in love over the years following. Or even just really deep true friendship/companionship from all they have been through together
he was supposed to be her love interest in an earlier version of the script, but they decided to focus only on familial love. the scene where they talk about the curse was the most blatant, with the script outright saying "she's looking right at him, but she can't see the love in his eyes" and the novelization implying that this is when maleficent realizes she has feelings for diaval, but is in denial. notably, the final product is actually barely any different, besides a couple of scenes, and the actors definitely had the original intentions in mind.
You should also watch the second movie and the animated movie, if you haven’t seen it yet.
The youngest version of Aurora is played by Jolie's own daughter (Vivienne Jolie-Pitt), since she was the only child that wasn't afraid of Jolie with the Maleficent costume on.
it's so funny to see your reaction to the rest of the movie with the thought that she was able to revoke the curse lol
When she puts the curse on aurora she said that no power can lift it. And that includes her own
"this curse will last till the ends of time, No power on earth can change it"
Read the pinned comment… I know I made a mistake it’s not a big deal
@@ItsTotallyCody I know but I just put it up in case anyone else was confused about it I can understand the mistake anyone could've done it love your content btw you'll go far ♡
@@ItsTotallyCody I'm not trying to nag at you I'm so sorry if it seemed like I did I apologize
OMG! Sleeping Beauty was one of My favorite movies as a kid. Diff my no. 1 fav Disney animated film.
You gotta react to the second cosy please
obviously i love the orginal movie, but i like these ones too and in here i dont blame her. yup thats the one lady in the pink from harry potter who everyone hates lmao umbridge. also the little girl in the movie is her actualy daughter in real life.
Oh yeah, when this movie was made, three of her kids are played as two of the little children within the christening and her daughter played as the young Aurora at 5.
Cody you MUST WATCH the Christmas carol with Jim Carrey it is amazing and I would love for you too react to it🙂
Omg watch the 2nd one its so good
Maleficent is a rally great movie.
In animated form, Maleficent is weird and scary. In live action form, Maleficent is weirder and scarier. Great character and Angelina is brilliant with the part.
For a PG rated film at the ending it was pretty brutal and a little violent it should've been PG-13 in my opinion
12:50 wrong, issue is she starting to care for her, but u find out soon
i write as like ur streaming it, like how i would respond if it were stream
The curse was never broken in the middle of the movie! If you listen closely to the scene while she tries to break it the curse over powers Maleficent trying to break it and you hear the echo of the original curse saying “This curse will last till the end of time, no power in earth can change it.”
Did you read the pinned comment where i said I realized that it was a mistake??? Nope
Wait until you see Maleficent 2
