We last saw Glenn Close as arch villainess Cruella De Vil in Disney\u2019s hugely successful live action \"101 Dalmatians\u201d back in 1996. As this sequel opens, a rehabilitated and puppy-loving Cruella is released from prison, but it\u2019s only a matter of time before she returns to her old ways. Originally she needed 101 Dalmatian puppies to supply the fur for her dream coat, but now she needs one more (she decided to add a hood!). This sequel shares the high production values of its predecessor, with Glenn Close donning ever more outrageous black and white costumes, and elaborate sets that would be at home in one of director Kevin Lima\u2019s previous animated movies. It also features the obligatory hoards of cuter-than-cute performing puppies, an over-the-top performance from Gerard Depardieu as an outrageous French fashion designer, and \"Blackadder\u201d star Tim McInnerny as Cruella\u2019s long suffering valet. Ultimately though, this film is aimed fair and square at a kids audience, and does indeed hit its target. But be warned: if you\u2019re the brave parent that volunteers to take a car-full of kids to see this at your local multiplex this Christmas you\u2019ll find less to keep an adult amused this time round.3\/5<\/p>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>","fnc":"googleTrackerHelper.doTrackPage( '\/'102-Dalmatians-film_options~15909'\/Reviews\/ViewAll\/1' );"}
