'Maleficent' flies higher in sequel 'Mistress of Evil'
(CNN) - "Maleficent" wasn't especially good, but it scared up enough money to conjure a sequel. Happily, this five-years-later follow-up, "Maleficent: Mistress of Evil," flies a bit higher, building on the central relationship while adding Michelle Pfeiffer's regal presence as a killer queen. Maleficent loves "Beastie," as she still calls her, but isn't so thrilled about her marrying a, well, human. That doesn't translate into magic, but in terms of improving on the original, giving the stars some reasonably good material to play and delivering action within its PG parameters, "Mistress of Evil" pretty much threads the needle. "Maleficent: Mistress of Evil" opens Oct. 18 in the US.
