cruella de vil: wears INTENSELY dramatic monochrome lewks, hates men, can’t drive
me: hello? HELLO??
If you want to watch 1.75 hours of dogs barking and Glenn Close evil laughing - then this movie is for you! It comes as no surprise that this live-action remake is worse than the animated version (shocker!). Obviously, the best thing about the film is Glenn Close as Cruella DeVille. She owns the role and is very convincing as the infamous fashion icon and puppy killer. Overall does not hold up. Thanks, Logan for making everyone watch this one. Won't be rewatching this again ever.
P.S. False advertising - it's only 17 dalmatians, not 101.
Why Glenn Close should have won an Oscar for her brilliant turn as Cruella De Vil:
You may forget what happened in this film, but there is one thing you will never forget: Glenn Close's performance. Close uses a menacing laugh, over-the-top line delivery, and a fiery demeanor to bring Cruella's genuine, cruel nature to life in a dramatically subversive way. Her ferocity in front of the camera makes her character obtrusive, self-absorbed, arrogant, delightfully nasty, and yet incredibly hilarious at the same time. She achingly conveys her portrayal with a simmering rage while simultaneously spinning comedic gold into her role, allowing her to become the terrifying fashion icon that is Cruella De Vil.
Gay people love Cruella De Vil as much as white people love Starbucks
Film Cult first pick
glenn close and some insane Home Alone-esque slapstick are the only two reasons to watch this thing.

Heavy nostalgia attached to this one. Quite refreshing to see highly trained animals rock the film instead of CGI. If there is something it holds objectively well it has to be it’s way of capturing snowy pastures and a festive cold. Or is it just me?
The video game subplot was kinda dumb and I felt like there wasn't really a need for it either? Glenn Close as Cruella is amazing. I mean her evil laughter... iconic. Can't really imagine anyone doing that better than her. Love to hate her. Pongo & Perdita are cute, so are the puppies ofc, and I love how Britainish (Not sure if that's really a word, but it sounds more like what I mean, than British does 😂😂) this film is.
Ah man the nostalgia....
Glenn Close will always be the best Cruella De Vil. But I prefer cartoon version over this one.
