Bad, most likely. Punishing the Prince by turning him into a Beast is one thing (since he did actually deserve it for his callous actions), and even turning the adult servants into enchanted objects can be forgivable if they were permitting his behavior [though that's still in the gray area, especially when most likely they won't have anywhere else to go anyways even without the curse], but cursing innocent children and animals, who have absolutely nothing to do with the Prince's behavior at all, not even enabling it, and then just to top it all off expanding the curse so it affected the forest as a whole in addition to the castle, as well as making it so dangerous that a lot of people probably can't go to Adam's castle to break the curse even if they wanted to for fairly justifiable reasons, thus making it virtually, if not completely impossible for the curse to ever be lifted (remember, the only reason Maurice and Belle even discovered the castle was due to sheer dumb luck due to the former taking a wrong turn)?! Sorry, but that's just sick and wrong, not to mention monstrous. To make matters worse, it's even implied that she may have been the one who manipulated Gaston into fighting the Beast, at least in promotional materials. Disney really dropped the ball by not making the enchantress the villain, as her actions actually would have fit the whole external-versus-internal beauty aspect (even make her nihilistic and view all humans as garbage who due to not being perfect deserve to die or be cursed for all eternity while not even looking at her own flaws or even embracing her flaws as well, similar to the Dark Knight's version of the Joker, or heck, Kefka Palazzo even.). She should have been the main villain over Gaston, who really wasn't an effective villain. A minor antagonist like Lawrence, sure, but not an actual main villain.
