Cruella

It's so good! Emma Stone once again delivers a brilliant performance, and this is one of Disney's best in their "bring cartoons into live action" series.

From the start Emma Stone was brilliant she is believable as both naughty and nice with her Cruella change and the storyline kept you interested along with the fantastic soundtrack which just added to the whole experience. Loved it

One of Emma Stones best roles by far and an extremely welldone soundtrack.

Cruella is a refreshingly different approach to origin stories that often plague Hollywood. Instead of focusing on the violent child skinning and murdering dogs, it tells the story of a struggling fashion designer in 1970s London, caught up in the competitive world of fashion, while also dealing with the loss of her mother to an unknown perpetrator. Emma Stone delivers a strong and energetic performance as the antihero and is assisted by talented costume designers, hair and makeup stylists to create new iconic looks for Cruella. She is matched by Emma Thompson as the cruel Baroness von Hellman, Cruella's employer and eventual enemy, their escalating fashion duel provides some visually stunning set pieces. While the movie raises the question of necessity, it will be interesting to see how it leads to the story of 101 Dalmatians in future films. The movie is also powered by a great soundtrack of songs from the era, which will appeal to some but alienate others. A few pacing issues aside, and despite the risk of overstaying its welcome, Cruella is a surprisingly stylish, prickly and fun backstory for an already-iconic character.

Cruella es un enfoque refrescantemente diferente de las historias de origen que a menudo plagan a Hollywood. En lugar de centrarse en el desollado niño violento y el asesinato de perros, cuenta la historia de una diseñadora de moda en apuros en la década de 1970 en Londres, atrapada en el competitivo mundo de la moda, mientras lidia con la pérdida de su madre a manos de un perpetrador desconocido. Emma Stone ofrece una actuación fuerte y enérgica como el antihéroe y cuenta con la ayuda de talentosos diseñadores de vestuario, peluqueros y maquilladores para crear nuevos looks icónicos para Cruella. Ella es igualada por Emma Thompson como la cruel baronesa von Hellman, la empleadora y eventual enemiga de Cruella, su duelo de moda cada vez mayor proporciona algunos escenarios visualmente impresionantes. Si bien la película plantea la cuestión de la necesidad, será interesante ver cómo conduce a la historia de 101 dálmatas en futuras películas. La película también está impulsada por una gran banda sonora de canciones de la época, que atraerá a algunos pero alienará a otros. Dejando de lado algunos problemas de ritmo, y a pesar del riesgo de quedarse más tiempo del esperado, Cruella es una historia de fondo sorprendentemente elegante, espinosa y divertida para un personaje ya icónico.

Absolutely stunning production and the cast couldn't have been better. I loved every moment of this movie and have watched it multiple times.

Didn't expect it to be as interesting as it was. Great set design, characterization, and acting. Made me want to be more like Cruella which is mind-boggling with how I saw her as a kid. One of the few live action Disney films I genuinely like now

Watch it, you won't regret it! Awesome use of rock music too and of course we can forget Emma Stone just being a BAMF throughout the film

Emma Stone is The god of talent. Cruella is one of the best Movies ever...

I went in very skeptical because I grew up terrified of Cruella in 101 Dalmatians. The iconic version Glenn Close gave us, who could come even close to that? And while I really like Emma Stone when she got cast for the role I didn't quite see it yet but she delivered!
I like to see this as a different version of Cruella, especially given how this movie ends. I'll explain it away under 'multiverse'. Similar to the Joker.
This movie gave us a Cruella that felt like a hero, felt like a villain, felt like someone inspiring and powerful while also just straight up mad and psychotic. It's the kind of character I personally love. She's theatrical but done with flair. You know she's mad but the Baroness is on a level of psycho that makes you root for Cruella.
[spoiler] Jasper and Horace are lovable as always. Just like in the 101 Dalmatians movie they are the bad guys that you can't help but love. The dalmatians come across as straight up evil. Which makes sense as we see the movie through Cruella's eyes. [/spoiler]
I have to give a huge thumbs up to the writers. The story was written well. Nice twists, creatively done and it actually does the characters justice. This could be a prequel to 101 Dalmatians but it also could be a totally different Cruella (like I said, multiverse) and I feel like the writers had respect for the original movie and us as fans. Honestly, I'm so surprised at how much I enjoyed the movie and now that I've watched it I can say; yes, Emma Stone IS a wonderfully mad Cruella.

Fantastic watch! Certainly deserved 10/10

i've always been very meh about emma stone as an actress but i must admit after watching this she's truly great at what she does. the Emmas had such great chemistry! loved every minute of this.
