Cruella

Cruella

In 1970s London amidst the punk rock revolution, a young grifter named Estella is determined to make a name for herself with her designs. She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets. One day, Estella’s flair for fashion catches the eye of the Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly haute. But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable and revenge-bent Cruella.

    THIS WON AN OSCAR?!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT!!! wanna save your childhood? don't watch this movie...
    I didn't have to watch the movie to know that it was bad... I already knew when i seen the face of Emma Stone on the theater poster. What a way to advertise a movie that it is bound to be bad then to have the face of an actor that people prejudge that she is a horrible actor in the first place. From the way that i am hereing it and to put it short, the film only shows of what her dumb childhood looks like and her being "friends" with Jasper and Horace. Those are one of the things that it tries to alter with the original film. SHE NEVER TREATED JASPER AND HORACE NICE!!. And it even rips out the authenticity of the original Cruella De Ville too. Disney even eliminates her original intentions to do with the Dalmatian puppies and forces her to like dogs and to be nice to her henchmen. And the one thing that truly makes mad was the mid credits seen where it tries to tell you that Cruella was the one that gave Pongo and Perdita to Anita and Roger when they were kids, and that Pongo and Perdita were related. I NEVER ONCE IN MY LIFE THOUGHT THAT THEY WERE RELATED AND I'M NOT BELIEVING IT NOW!!. Its almost as relatable as the maleficent movie they made. To those who believe that this film is an attempt to destroy a movie that you know and love, please find my review helpful.

    MAKE THIS MOVIE'S METASCORE FALL!!!!

    I wasn't mistaken
    I was impatiently looking for "Cruella" coming out. And my expectations are fully approved. So, what's the message of this movie? Everyone, I guess, can see it from personal angle. It seems that sometimes our success is a kind of an eclipse of our feelings and thoughts. We just eager to be the best and outshine everybody else, even our own friends, family members. And here we go. Our main character is suffering from this "loving" mommy, whose social and professional position is quite more important than other things... Of course I consider this problem such as a metaphor. In reality I would merely confess that Cruella's mom is a nut.

    The second point is talented people. They can be hated because of their success and giftedness. But actually they come across distinguish obstacles, which don't exist for "normal" people. Like, society doesn't understand them or it's difficult to express their talent at all.

    Well, generally this movie is gripping and thanks to scenery and costumes became a hit with the public. Every actor was cast to advantage, honestly, I'm not able to imagine anyone else on these roles. The plot is superb too. I couldn't predict the developing of a script as well as I couldn't criticise anything. Emma stone created a true to life image, her leading role was vividly dramatic (in my opinion), and she was brilliant.

    I'm waiting for the 2nd part of this comedy/crime that must be produced because of a great box office and a great amount of crazy fans)
