Maleficent (2014)
Plot Synopsis:
The "Sleeping Beauty" tale is told from the perspective of the villainous Maleficent and looks at the events that hardened her heart and drove her to curse young Princess Aurora.
Starring: Angelina Jolie, Juno Temple, Elle Fanning & Sharlto Copley.
This could be her comeback but she needs to eat something.
The trailer doesn't give enough to get me interested but I can't see why such a plot wouldn't.
Too much CG. Screw this CG garbage. It's like watching an old Red and Blue 3D movie. Too distracting seperating the real imagery and the fake.
I want to like this because Disney is at its best when it plays the horror angle.

The movie was originally written with Cruise in mind.
He turned it down because of his commitment to the MI franchise.
But then she tailor-made it to make her "the ultimate female action hero", and indeed she was. Besides the thing with the handcuffs, I can't think of anything I disliked about the film. Salt is her baby, and she needs to nurse it because it was great,
Speaking of Cruise and sequels, I would love to see a sequel to Knight and Day. Put Cameron Diaz in the background (or write her out), but Roy Miller was phucking awesome.
And a last sequel I wish would happen but won't: From Paris With Love. John Travolta was off-the-chain badass. The movie was a blast to watch and Wax should have his own franchise. Will never happen though 🙁

Do you remember the ending to "From Paris"?
I've never seen a movie end with 2 women getting brutally killed.
Travolta shoots one point blank in the face & the other guy shoots his gf/sleeper terrorist.

Salt is much better than MI. And Hollywood needs more strong female heroines versus cool spec op dudes.
Sorry but I found Salt to be nothing special. The plot was too convoluted & some of the action scenes could've been handled better.
I think there's a Director's Cut with an alternate ending which implies that even the American President was an orphan raised by a Russian family...implying that he was a sleeper agent as well.
Like I said, too convoluted.

They were both terrorists. The latter mentioned one was about to suicide bomb a building full of innocent people.
I'm not sure what your point is 😬
