Synopsis

When a litter of dalmatian puppies are abducted by the minions of Cruella De Vil, the parents must find them before she uses them for a diabolical fashion statement. In a Disney animation classic, Dalmatian Pongo is tired of his bachelor-dog life. He spies lovely Perdita and maneuvers his master, Roger, into meeting Perdita's owner, Anita. The owners fall in love and marry, keeping Pongo and Perdita together too. After Perdita gives birth to a litter of 15 puppies, Anita's old school friend Cruella De Vil wants to buy them all. Roger declines her offer, so Cruella hires the criminal Badun brothers to steal them -- so she can have a fur coat.

Dorathen Better Late Then Never
Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
Patience Watson One of those movie experiences that is so good it makes you realize you've been grading everything else on a curve.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Kirpianuscus That genre of film with fragile story, lovely characters, fascinating adventures/tension/bad character and with taste of milks and cookies. it does "101 Dalmatians" unique. and this is the motif for who does works the parallel with others Disney animations. because it is the source - film for who the kids loves dalmations beyound them sees on street, for who the portrait of nanny is so sweet and the adults recognize himselves in the traits of young couple and in the huge love for animals. it is a film so great than it is a crime to define its sins. because it is unique. and, maybe, more than unique because Cruella De Vil remains, for generations of viewers, more than an evil character but the most sadistic/absurde figure of Disney universe.
charizardever At a young age, I love watching it because of the dogs. Now I love it for it being masterpiece. The movie is about a dalmatian named Pongo who wants to find a partner for this owner or how Pongo calls him "his pet". After looking at people walking their dogs, he sees the perfect on, a woman walking her dalmatian. After Pongo sees them walking into the park, he drags his owner out there and gets them to meet and fall in love. As the owners fall in love, so do the dalmatians. After the owners Roger and Anita get married, Pongo and Perdy have puppies and realize that someone wants their puppies for a fur coat. My favorite thing about this movie was Pongo himself. I really enjoyed that because of him, he got his owner a life. Also loved brave he and Perdy are for finding their kids and even bringing back about 84 more puppies to keep them safe. I love this movie and I love the old style of animation. I grew up with this movie and still love it to this day.
Jesper Brun I really like this movie. Among my favorite from outside the Disney renaissance. Very memorable characters and a pretty solid story. And last, but absolutely not least, one of the greatest Disney villains! Cruella De Vil is both stylish, menacing and versatile in her performance, both exposing her psychotic driving and sugar sweet and slimy voice and her yelling at her goons. You know she is up to no good right from the start. The slow pacing gives time for some good suspense when our main dogs try to escape Cruella and her goons' clutches. That also leads up to great chase scenes. Watch it. It is funny, cute, full of suspense and great characters.
Sam smith (sam_smithreview) If there's any classic Disney movie that's less likely to be forgotten because of the modern Disney movies, this would be one of them. Part of the reason may be the live action version and its upcoming sequel. Skip those remakes and watch the real deal. The other part of the reason is because this movie is just so charming. Cruella De Vil is one of the more memorable Disney villains ever made. Romance abounds in this movie, and don't forget those adorable puppies. This may not have the animation or the big fancy songs of the moderns, but all that fanciness usually distracts from the story. Classic Disney always rocks, and this is no exception. I liked this film mainly for its drawings. It was a departure from previous Disney animated films in that it had harder-edged drawings instead of the soft pastels. I found the detailed sketches of the building to be fascinating. I could actually watch this film with the sound off and just enjoy the artwork.
