101 Dalmatians (Live Action) [DVD]

DVD In Perfect brand new condition! Super fast delivery too. Great price!

Our puppy loves this movie and watches it from time to time when l play it for him. I know that as a parent you are not supposed to let the TV babysit your kids, but with puppies it is different. Anything you can find to keep a high energy puppy amused for a while is something to hold on to. He gets involved in it a growls and barks at the TV at various times. It was so funny watching him do this that l actually videoed it.

Wonderful movie

It is HARD to beat the original carton 101 Dalmatians BUT this is JUST as ADORABLE! We love watching it every Christmas!

John Hughes' ("Sixteen Candles", "The Breakfast Club," "Ferris Bueller's Day Off") live-action remake (directed by Stephen Herek) of this beloved Disney animated classic is long on slapstick and other types of physical humor. It's easy to see Glenn Close's portrayal of evil dog-napping Cruella De Vil as a Disney variation of her manipulative, scary (and best-remembered) roles in "Fatal Attraction" and "Dangerous Liaisons." Glenn Close keeps Cruella close to her original cartoon origins, going deliciously and delightfully over the top. Clearly, Cruella is another Disney Witch.To emphasize this point, there is a scene where Cruella, draped in lion skin, gazes at her reflection and says, "Mirror Mirror on the Wall, Who is the Fairest One Of All?" Hugh Laurie (of TV's "House") portrays one of Cruella's criminal cronies. It is great fun to watch assorted animals (dogs, racoons, rabbits, birds, pigs, etc.) rule over evil, but stupid, humans who attempt to kill or abuse them. Joan Plowright ("Nanny") and the always dependable Jeff Daniels ("Roger Darling", human pet of Dalmation Dog Pongo) are featured as two of the more kind humans.I'm very glad Disney has released both the original animated and live-action versions (Which I have wanted for a LONG time) of "101 Dalmations" on DVD. If you are a fan of the original animated version, you will likely enjoy the live-action remake as well. The two versions perfectly compliment each other. My favorite line of dialogue here comes towards the end. In the police wagon, Cruella screams at her three criminal cohorts, "Outwitted by a bunch of animals! You three have just one the Gold, Silver, and Bronze medals in the Morons Olympics!!" Jasper then asks, "Who won the Gold?"The Sequel, "102 Dalmations", however, should be AVOIDED, by ALL means.

Great

This is an oldie but goodie. The Dalmatians are cute, but I love the Airedale in the movie that helps the puppies out of their situation. I guess I'm partial to Airedales because I had one at one time.

Does not play on American DVD Player.
