Doesn't compare with the cartoon, but has some good moments. Close IS Cruella!

Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Remake of the Disney animated favorite starts out charmingly well, with Daniels and Richardson a perfect pair (along with their dogs Pongo and Perdita), and Close a flamboyantly funny Cruella De Vil. But once the dalmatian puppies are stolen and Cruella's bumbling henchmen take over, this John Hughes's script becomes yet another heavy-handed HOME ALONE retread, full of mechanical slapstick gags. Stick with the cartoon. Panavision.
