101 Dalmations

Avi Green | 10:02 p.m. July 15, 1999

This movie was the pits, and wasn't very exiting either. I
think it's a shame that John Hughes has abandoned the teen
genre for garbage like this, and should we have to be
bombarded such awful slapstick like what's in this and
other Home Alone ripoffs? No. Even the original children's
book and cartoon wasn't a good place to begin with, since
it depicts a women(Cruella deVil) in the role of a
homicidal criminal and worst of all, a devil who intends to
sacrifice the dalmatian puppies on the alter of evil. In
fact, the whole story reeks of Nazism, though that would
hard for most regular people to tell. I hope parents who
read this statement will reconsider and think twice before
letting their kids watch garbage like this again.

I thought the movie was great,fantastic and wonderful. It
was better then other shows ( like Tellitubbies, Tots
TV,Barney and The Wiggles).I liked the part when Cruella
DeVil fell in hay,mud and chocolate.Then the policemen took
them to the car with the other guys,and Cruella found there
was a skunk under her coat.I hope there is a 101 Dalmations
part 2.
