Idk if it's abandonment per se, considering how her parents are still present in Aurora's life after, but thanks to Maleficient's curse, Aurora spends the first 16 years of her life raised by Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather rather than her parents.

Aurora is basically lied too about her identity her whole life until she tries to run away with the prince, and she’s clearly distressed about it in the movie. She’s even told her name is Blair Rose and only later finds out it’s aurora

Not outright, but a child is lied to about her identity and raised away from her family for her own safety. Another character also wants to kill this child.

Maleficent's underlings are obviously based on animals, and they get zapped.

Well not technically cause the king was in on the plan, but aurora is taken away from her home to be rasied under a different identity and different family as a baby, and from her perspective could be seen as infant abduction

There is some flashing when maleficent is doing magic, but as a photosensitive person it didn’t bother me to much, though if you’re epileptic I’d recommend skipping those scenes or avoiding this movie altogether

The way the characters are drawn doesn’t make it seem like a large age gap, though aurora is 16 and Philip is 20. Aurora is also promised to Philip when she is a baby and he’s a child, but they pull some weird destiny shit

Very very VERY briefly, as Maleficient says "Now you shall deal with me, and all the powers of HELL!" G-rated flick, btw.
