Review of Cruella (2021) by Jvperalta — 29 May 2021

This movie is brilliant!

First of all, I'm not the type of person that writes reviews, but I needed to share my thoughts on Cruella. This movie has a lot of to live up to, after all, we're talking about one of the biggest villans in history, and the best part of the film is that we can finally see the human side of Cruella. Emma Stone looks stunning from the begining to the ending, she is and incredible actress and was the perfect choice to bring Cruella to life.

The BEST point of the movie is the costumes. Everything is so beautifully done, congrats on Jenny Beavan for the amazing job, the choice for the movie to be set in 70's London was perfect, the epicenter of fashion at that time really made a difference in the costume desing. Every costume is amazing, there are no better words to discribe them.

The story is very unpredictable, there's always a twist, and that's keep us so entertained, keeping us always in that feeling of tension and exicitement. I've found a lot of references to The Devil Wears Prada and Ocean's 8, both great movies like this one. It's so cool to finally see Cruella's good and bad sides, what happened for each trade of personlity beetween Estella and Cruella, how they can be so different and so equal at the same time. Another thing that's important to say in this review is that I was questining myself about how they would put that rivalry beetween Cruella and the dalmatians in this movie, and It was amazingly well done, they didn't transform the main caracther in a monster that kills puppys and uses it skins to craft clothes. PLEASE watch this movie, you'll fall in love with this caracther and it's story.

PSA. After watching, please listen to I Did Something Bad by Taylor Swift, this song really reminded me of Cruella's story.
