Amazon.co.uk Review:
It is rare to find a sequel which outdoes the original concept, particularly in the world of Disney movies, but 102 Dalmatians is an exception to the rule. The high jinks and action is back, with an additional puppy--the lovable Oddball, who has no spots--and of course the cruellest of villains, Cruella DeVil. After two years of rehabilitation Cruella is released into London's community once more--but this time insists on being called Ella, "Cruella just sounds so cruel"--but has the evil one really changed her ways to become not only a pillar of society, but also a dog-loving activist? Her probation officer Chloe is not convinced and added to that her dalmatians have just had puppies.

Glenn Close is back in fine form as Cruella--this may be the defining role of her career-and with a great range of costumes and hair-dos she adds fantastic menace to the character. Added to this is the joy of having two British actors in the role of dog-loving humans (Ioan Gruffudd as Kevin and Alice Evans as Chloe)--instead of having to listen to the cod Dick Van Dyke English accent that Disney seems to love. The film also offers an extrovert turn by Gerard Depardieu as the flamboyant French Fashion designer Monsieur Le Pelt. Through Le Pelt this film does make some important references to the fur trade and the "No Logo-esque" fashion production methods--adding political humour for adults. However as always the true stars of the films are the animal actors themselves, with the talking parrot Waddlesworth who thinks he is a rottweiler (voiced by Eric Idle) and of course the true star Oddball--the cutest puppy since the promotion of a certain toilet roll! --Nikki Disney

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - here we go again!
Actually this is an enjoyable enough movie for those who love Glenn Close or Ioan Gruffudd, and there are lots of fun elements to enjoy. The parrot who thinks he is a dog is an absolute scream, and the film itself is well made and well shot in my opinion. There is nothing really wrong with it except for the story itself. I can't even fault the script really...I think they did the best they could under the circumstances, and the actors all came up trumps...but as I say it's the story that lets the ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Abysmal
I'm struggling to understand why other reviewers for this appalling film don't point out the lifelessness of the main human 'romantic' leads; the self-parodying OTT performance by Glenn Close or the overall naffness of a sequel that just should not have been made. Infants may just like it, but they'd need to be pretty easily pleased. No - this film proves two things ... the current dirth of talent and imagination at the top in Disney, and the fact that unless sequels are based upon an established story, ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - 102 Dalmatians LIVE ACTION
hmmmm not to my liking..My 5yr old loved it! Watch it and make up your own mind..But the whole film was typical of the others and nothing new..Sorry but not for me!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - BETTER THAN 101!
I found the sequel to be much better and fun than the 101 and loved the parrot who thought to be a dog and the puppy who fought to get her spots.It was great and i am ready to buy the dvd to check out the extra stuff in it.Enjoy...



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Charming sequel that kids will love
I took my 6 year old daughter to see this at the cinema, she loved it and so did I! Alright, so its a rehash of the original, but who cares? The love story is predictable but nonetheless sweet, Glenn Close obviously relishes her role as Cruella, Gerard Depardieu is brilliant as the demented M le Pelt (watch out for the fur jock strap!), and we get to see so much more of the the excellent Tim McInnery as Alonzo. Eric Idle voicing the parrot who thinks he's a rottweiler (trust me) is superb - the best character ... Read More
