Don t be fooled by the title. Rather than 102, there are 4 reasons to like this sequel to the successful live-action remake of Disney s animated classic. There are the 101 spotted pooches, Glenn Close back in fine form as Cruella De Vil, Oddball--the spotless dalmation pup--and Waddlesworth, a parrot who thinks he s a rottweiler (and is voiced by Monty Python s Eric Idle). There are just as many reasons to be disappointed. Like most sequels, the story line is virtually a rewrite of the first, the secondary casting isn t as interesting, the dialogue merely serves to move the plot along, and the third act substitutes mean-spiritedness for comedy. After a period of rehabilitation, Cruella has returned to her old tricks. Once again, she simply must have a spotted coat and will go to any lengths to get ahold of the 102 dalmatians needed to make one with a hood. She sets her sights on the pups owned by her probation officer, Chloe (Alice Evans), and the owner of a local animal shelter, Kevin (Ioan Gruffudd of Horatio Hornblower). Her servant, Alonso (Tim McInnerny), and flamboyant furrier Monsieur Le Pelt (Gerard Depardieu, in one ridiculous outfit after another) are drafted to aid in her quest. It should come as no surprise that Chloe and Kevin fall in love, Oddball helps to save the day, and Cruella is defeated. Children should enjoy the animal high jinks, but adults are less likely to be enamored by this perfectly competent, but relatively charmless affair. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Cute puppies. 16th april 2004. - I have never really seen the first propally, but i could imagine the second been that bit better. Great for anyone, really cute doggies, and ther are 102 of them on a adventure near to the end.

This was an amazing video - I think this video is amazing because I like when Cruella DeVil got cook into a cake and when the Dalmatians spread frosting on Cruella.It was sad when Oddball s mom got kidnapped by Le Pelt and Oddball s bothers.I think that Cruella should not get out of jail.

On it s own merit, it s good!!! - This is not the cartoon, but it s a far better movie simply because it has the people in it, and it can go for more credibility.The villain is Glenn Close - Cruella Deville - and she is the Villain of them all. Some have suggested that she d been born to play this part. Jeff Daniels is no longer the piano player, but a video inventor, and he has to come up with an idea to make money by selling his ideas to a kid. Not a bad premise, actually, since they are the ones who do most of the playing.The ensemble cast includes Deville s two bumblers who are also worth viewing, and they provide much of the laughter in this film. Lots of it! Close is laughable, too, but she does manage to control her dignity to the end, after she looks like something the barnyard spat out.A great film, but it has to be judged on its own merits, and not compared with the cartoon. There is no comparison.

Miserable Sequel - This movie was terrible. The plot is very thin, even for kids, and Gérard Depardieu is a real flop. (Why isn t his PR photo from this movie at the mulletsgalore.com website?) The leading couple is cuter and more believable than the current issue 101 movie, but their love story is poorly written and very superficial.The maccaw should have been named Jar Jar instead of Waddlesworth -- it was pointless, annoying, and dropped my raiting from two stars down to one.Go to some garage sales and find the original children s books. Read to your children, don t buy this movie.

Cruella De Vil is cured or is she? - Cruella De Vil has spent 3 years behind bars, and in this seagual she gets granted her freedoom, but if she harms pupppies, she lose her fortune to the anmal shelter. Cruella De Vil (Glenn Close) gets rleased from jail on parole. And gets assigned to parole officer Chloe (Alice Evans), who loves dogs. But doubts that Cruella De Vil is chagned. Cruella joins the 2nd chance animal shelter where the owner (Ioan Grudd) is fooled by Cruella s new ways. Now, you would have to be dumb to fall for that Cruella is crued. Roger, Anita, Horace and Jasper are not in this film. And if you didn t like one or more of those characters you may like this movie. But for some reason this has a G rating when it may be scary, and with mild violence. But remember there are very few live action movies with a G rating.
