Full of infinite adventure and active fun, Disney's 17th vibrant masterwork is the real thing sheet classic starring 101 of the world's most lovable, huggable Dalmatians and their entertainingly evil captor, Cruella De Vil! A charming London district is to your house to Roger and Anita, whose beloved Dalmatians, Pongo and Perdita, have become the proud parents of 15 puppies. But when Cruella and her shambling henchmen, Horace and Jasper, unexpectedly appear, the pups soon fade -- along with every other Dalmatian puppy in town! Now Pongo and Perdita must public meeting their subconscious links and use the prerogative of the "Twilight Bark" to bargain Cruella's stealthy camouflage and emancipated the puppies. Featuring the impressive toe-tapping song "Cruella De Vil," 101 DALMATIANS is one of the most treasured and sought-after Disney classics of all occasion -- and among the last films to bring the own link with of Walt Disney.
Back in 1961, Walt Disney got a little hip with 101 Dalmatians, construction use of that smooth Saturday sunup cartoon design that had become so popular. The consequence is a cheap convert in computer graphics and story. Pongo and Perdita are two lonely dalmatians who pick up cute in a London playing field and fix up for their pet humans to get married so they can stay together and heave a family. They become proud parents of 15 pups, who are stolen by the base Cruella De Vil, who wants to appoint a fur coat out of them. Cruella has become the most trendy vile piece of work in all of Disney; she's ostentatiously vile and to excess of fun. But it's the dalmatians who shine in this attractive classic, particularly those bright pups. Telling the feature from the dogs' meaning of spectacle is a crafty conceit, a unusual flaw of the live-action remake. --Bill Desowitz
