*Unpopular opinion:* This film works so much better if you treat it like a reimagining (like Maleficent), instead of trying to force it into being a prequel. Cruella's character is way too different; she's not the villain (in the end she does the right thing, and no puppies die), and the dognapping even happens in the film. It honestly seems like she hit a low throughout the movie but by the end she's recovered and grown into a better person. Forcing it to be a prequel erases the entire point of the film, of her grappling with her identity after discovering her mother's narcissism and coming to an equilibrium by both accepting it in herself and controlling it in order to keep her adoptive family. With this in mind I absolutely love this film! It's one of the best Disney has made in years.

[@LionWithAGun]

i see it like this. the original sleeping beauty and 101 dalmations are the propaganda against maleficent and cruella but the movies we got recently for both are the true story of what happened to them. we learned in Mal 2 that the princes mother made the story about maleficent being pure evil to add to the already made fear/hatred from auroras father and here we see the baroness start the fire against cruella that is fanned by john i think the name was at the end who begins working on the cruella song pushing her to be seen as an evil person.

[@carlycchapman]

@@LionWithAGun That's Roger at the end, and you have Anita in this movie as well who was the journalist for 'Tattletale,' and friends with Estella/Cruella in school. Literally, the end credits scene where Cruella sends Pongo to Roger and Perdita to Anita sets up a sequel to this.

[@misaki7923]

I pretty much did this and didn't connect it to the original, neither the cartoon nor the live action, and I thoroughly enjoyed it more.

[@yannym4605]

This movie was more of a masterpiece than it had any reason to be. There wasn't a moment watching it where I wasn't intrigued to find out where it was going. Your commentary was on point as well.

[@JimmyXWolvie]

Dude as a huge fan of Emma Stone, I loved her in this role! She brings this unique charisma that was a perfect fit in the world of Cruella, amd yes....Long Live the QUEEN! 😌💗

[@MoviesinDepth]

QUEEN

[@wattsink2009]

Glen Close was better! 😎

[@bicyclesaremagical]

YESS Long live the ✨QUEEN✨

[@mvargasautora]

I loved the take on cruella they had on this movie. Loved the outfits, Emma Stone's performance EVERYTHING! Love from a Chilean living in Argentina!

[@MoviesinDepth]

♥️♥️♥️

[@novaaa42O]

"For lack of a better word, Emma Stone is bae" wise, wise words.

[@MoviesinDepth]

Thank you. I speak the truth.

[@videohistory722]

The costume designer just won an Oscar for this movie!

[@thomasbaker2067]

Emma Stone was so awesome at playing Cruella in this live action version of Disney's villian character.

[@videohistory722]

The screenwriter for Devil Wears Prada also wrote the early draft for Cruella. You're welcome.

[@madnessarcade7447]

I’m not sure if u will see this but fun fact this movie came out on Cameron Boyce’s birthday who plays cruella’s son in descendants It’s a good way to honor him

[@MoviesinDepth]

R.I.P ♥️♥️

[@sassylittleprophet]

This makes me both happy and sad. RIP Cameron Boyce ❤♥

[@breannamachnicki2253]

That’s so sweet🥺

[@JimmyXWolvie]

Man the soundtrack in this movie... ...Chefs KISS. 🎧☺🎶

[@MoviesinDepth]

YES

[@SpacialRend7]

While I prefer Glenn Close’s portrayal of Cruella more than Emma Stone, Emma did a pretty good job on her performance in this film.

[@theatergeek82]

My thoughts exactly

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Dame Queen Emma Thompson is an icon, a legend and she is the moment. Hopefully, this is the gateway to watching more of her work. I’m hinting mainly at ‘Sense and Sensibility’ (1995) or the ‘Nanny McPhee’ Series.

[@n.q1158]

I agree, Emma Thompson might be my favourite actress of all time, I can confidently say that I have watched movies for the sole reason that she's in it xD I'm constantly impressed with her range if roles, I was so excited to see her as a villain here, and she did not disappoint! 1995's S&S is my favourite Austen adaption right along with the 2005 P&P, also because Emma did not only play my favourite character Elinor but also wrote the screenplay. I would LOVE to see more movie reaction channels dive a little bit into her work as none of them seen to be particularly familiar with her esp compared to other great actresses of her time. Another few of my favourites would be 'Saving Mr Banks' (esp recommended when you're familiar with Mary Poppins) and 'Late Night'.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

@@christinechewe2067 She played Elinor Dashwood. This was in 1995.

[@n.q1158]

@@christinechewe2067 She played Elinor Dashwood and also wrote the screenplay for S&S😊

[@kathleenromani9429]

I was honestly surprised with how good this movie is and Emma Stone in La La Land is the best!

[@MoviesinDepth]

YES

[@ladymassacre6678]

As a fashion designer myself.. I loved this movie

[@a.g.demada5263]

It reminded me of my grandmother who was very good at sewing (she made her owns wedding dress). Fun fact : the music used when Estella is drunk, is used in France (where I live) for the advertissement of the perfume " La petite robe noire " by Guerlain

[@linanafie8571]

"I want to make art Artie, and I want to make trouble. You in? -I do love trouble!" Thats one of the best movie quotes of all time!

[@justicemanyewe421]

Yes I loved this movie when it came out I think it’s one of the best live action Disney film made

[@MoviesinDepth]

Yesss

[@madnessarcade7447]

I think they are all great whimsical and heartwarming

[@hannahsimmons682]

I say it every time I see a reaction but that trash dress is *ICONIC*

[@MoviesinDepth]

YAS

[@squishycoveswena]

Emma Stone acted her ass off in this role

[@MoviesinDepth]

Yes. Yes she did

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Emma Stone is a Comedy Genius and we love to see her having a moment in this movie.

[@EstherFromTheEther]

Emma Stone truly is bae… and Emma Thompson is a queen

[@wattsink2009]

You realize now, that everyone is going to demand that you watch 101 Dalmatians (both the 1961 animated film and the 1996 live-action film)! 😎 …and I’m looking forward to both!

[@videohistory722]

If you pay really close attention in the beginning when the mom dies, you can actually hear the dog whistle in the background.

[@MoviesinDepth]

🤯🤯🤯

[@bipolarbeautie85]

I love Emma Thompson and Emma stone and to have the two together in this movie was amazing 🤩🤩😆

[@jessm.porthos]

Emma Stone forever lol

[@abbij2009]

I like to think this is an alternate universe. In 101 Dalmatians she is a crazy old smoking dalamtion killer, but in this one in the end she still cares about her friends, and she liked the Dalmatians after. Plus she knows the people she gave the puppies too! So yeah that's why I think of it like that

[@funsizedenby]

Can’t wait to hear what you think about this movie cause I love it🥰😍 Edit: Loved your commentary♥️

[@MoviesinDepth]

♥️♥️♥️

[@itsmith14]

Is it sad that I just realized the Cruella's last name is Devil, god I'm slow.

[@wattsink2009]

I can’t wait until you see how the Glen Close Cruella DeVil compares to this. 😎

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Both the Emmas in one movie. It’s like ‘Treat Yoself’ but make it a movie date.

[@MoviesinDepth]

YES

[@pseudoromantik187]

the fashion 10/10 (want all of the dresses!)

[@MoviesinDepth]

YES

[@thedernboy]

ughhhh i loved this movie, she was amazing in this role and that voice 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵

[@MoviesinDepth]

YES SWEETIE

[@noodles6975]

I used to think they were going to have to make another movie to explain why she wanted to kill the dogs since at the end she seemed to like them but your theory about her simply playing the part of a villain makes sense!

[@SpySkater1]

Craig Gillespie (the director) never skimps on the soundtrack. I, Tonya, Cruella, Pam & Tommy, all have bangers! I liked this movie way more than I thought I would. Emma Stone is brilliant as Cruella, especially in that monologue scene.

[@brethnormak7467]

you and I are on the same wavelength, I just watched this movie yesterday

[@MoviesinDepth]

Great minds think alike

[@alexroberts2421]

So, funny you mentioned The Devil Wears Prada. One of the producers for Cruella also worked on The Devil Wears Prada.

[@Rina_sumpremacy]

I literally stopped what I was doing to watch this 😭

[@yoshifan4569]

This movie is literally the first movie where I was, while watching the movie, like: daaaamn this soundtrack slaps!

[@Cyborg2055]

I loved Emma Thompson in this movie.

[@MoviesinDepth]

She’s the queen of all of us

[@Xenotric]

the style of the movie is fantastic, the story is a bit weak but it does a great job at reinventing the villian as a protagonist even if it essentially does a reboot of the universe rather than prequeling the 101 dalmations. emma just did amazing and the whole punk feel to this was amazing, also no they probably wouldnt have guns at hand, its england and even in that era cops generally dont sit around the station armed. :P

[@leannewhite7559]

You: "you're at a police station, do you not have guns?!" Me: "It's set in the UK, no they don't" 🤣🤣 Loved your reaction to this!

[@randominternetbeing]

emma stone is bae

[@MoviesinDepth]

Facts on facts

[@MrPenguinboy90]

Damn straight.

[@JayeKisses]

Have u done “The House Bunny” it’s another Emma Stone movie & it’s great

[@tofanpurnomowaisaka503]

Yeah, for a Happy Madison production I actually enjoyed the movie in its entirety(they usually falls flat at some point).

[@Entxq_]

THATS MY FAMILY CHILDHOOD MOVIE HAHAH

[@WJC981]

So Disney banned SMOKING, but DRINKING CHAMPAGNE is considered alright? Well good to know!

[@tofanpurnomowaisaka503]

Don't forget incest & the subsequent inbreeding for dogs.

[@gusy629]

Hands down to the soundtracks.

[@amandagrubbs3000]

Waiting for the Sequel like 👁👁👁👁

[@MoviesinDepth]

Me

[@RabbitsFunWorld]

I super love this film. I think my only issue is the continuity with Anita and the lawyer at the end, especially with the lawyer playing that song. I get the movie should end on the classic, but him playing it just ruins the canon. He didn’t write that song until AFTER Cruella went to jail for dognapping 101 dalmatians. (Well, he at least had the tune throughout the film.) And him and Anita receiving those pups basically spells out Pongo and Perdita are siblings, which shows Disney is not afraid to tell us dogs can have incest but we (Americans) can’t. I don’t know the legal terms for incest for the rest of the world.

[@tofanpurnomowaisaka503]

They also turned them into the tired trope of capable wife & bumbling husband coupling. The inbred puppies are worse though.

[@fabiencoze9829]

Incredible to know that this " bae " QUEEN has now TWO Oscars in her bag ! And what about THIS little thing that made me fall in love with her : HER VOICE . So iconic with that British accent . Love you , my dearest Emily

[@islab481]

Omggggg I loved this movie and how haven’t u watched this yet 😭😂 she’s such a good cruella thoooo

[@MatheusAlves-vb9gh]

Thought the next notification would be heartstopper hahaha, but I love cruelly so much

[@lilypelletier2035]

Yesss he has to react to Heartstopper

[@cliquenerd21]

The guy who worked for the antagonist (cant remember her name🤦🏼‍♀️) also plays Merlin in the kingsman films, that's what I know him from anyway

[@cliquenerd21]

The baroness that's it! 😂🤦🏼‍♀️

[@Jas-ii3fp]

I love the movie does bring a good background of Crulella however The best Cruella for me will always Be Glenn close playing as Cruella

[@alexhunter4460]

FINALLY! UGGGGHHHH this version of Cruella was phenomenal! Emma slaaaaaayyyyyeeeedddd!

[@MoviesinDepth]

SLAY

[@AmateurTimetraveler]

You get it! When this movie was about to come out I said that it felt like Joker meets Devil Wears Prada and people were so confused when I said that

[@MoviesinDepth]

THANK YOU

[@ANGELINAA]

I can confidently say that even MY attempt to a British accent is better than yours. Great commentary MID! ~ :)

[@ANGELINAA]

"iconic" flashbacks tho -10 points for slytherin for bringing back that traumatic joke

[@MoviesinDepth]

😂

[@samanta9070]

I've watched this movie 22 times and I'm literally still not tired of it. This movie really is my obsession

[@forestcatkay14]

This movie was fabulous on many points, Glen Close of course will forever be The Cruella, but Emma did impress me. Now it’s time for you to react to 101 & 102 Dalmatians live action!

[@thedragon12]

Fun fact the woman who plays the Baroness is also the same actress who plays professor Trelawney in the Harry Potter movies (divination class)

[@astridhofferson7318]

I thought from the moment it happened,that her death wasn't Estelle's fault.The woman didn't even move an inch before it happened and dogs aren't blind to jump over the one they are after.It was obvious she isn't the one to be blamed

[@chihuahuagirl128]

Wink, is BY FAR my favorite dog character in this movie lol and the fact that he is a chihuahua is a plus

[@wendydanielle3476]

Thank god James Corden didn’t show up in this movie

[@MoviesinDepth]

I didn’t even think about that possibility….

[@andreguilherme_]

Bro, Cruella is my second favorite Disney live-action movie. It's amazing how they managed to make an origin movie interesting, creative, with so many iconic scenes, well directed, visually beautiful and well acted! I have a lot of positives about it and I'm very much looking forward to the sequel that should happen in the next few years.

[@sS0O0L]

i don't see many people acknowledging the fact that roger and anita were the same characters from the 101 dalmations movie, as they show in this final scene... Let's think about it for some time... ... Glad we did, have a good day

[@lizzylui5089]

Idk y but the barreness reminds me of Yolanda hadid

[@Kind_of_Human]

This movie is soo underated and i loved every moment

[@avengersfan949]

Emma Stone absolutely ATE this role

[@briannaferrell6771]

Just went to the dentist a while ago so I needed this today thank you

♥️♥️♥️

[@samanthavillazaez9033]

I enjoy this movie a lot! I love the costume design and everything but my small but incredibly annoying critique is how plain and seemingly unfinished the collection of dresses on the mannequins look! The Baroness is supposed to have the best! Like damn give 100% in the background dresses! Disney has the money! Also I love how positive you go into your first time watching videos! It's refreshing.

[@dizzynikki5912]

Great Reaction

[@annajacobsen8182]

Sometimes I find it weird that bae is a thing. I know it a shorter version of baby. But in my language (danish) we have 3 exstra letters: æ, ø and å. But in the old days they used to write them a bit different than they do now. Æ was ae, ø was oe and å was aa. So in my language bae=bæ and if you translate bæ in danish to english it literally mean poop. Just for some “fun fact” of the day

[@rainbowinbeigeboots6190]

you don't even know Emma Thompson (luv ur reaction anyways)

[@dizzynikki5912]

Great Reaction.. Yet, back in my day you could actually roll down the window yourself and we were left alone quite often... So that's not the unbelievable part of this story... LMAO...

Hey, MOVIES IN DEPTH, react to HEARTSTOPPER. It is based off of my favorite comic and I’m sure plenty of other peoples would like you to!! 😀😊thanks

Kid Cruella is giving Wednesday Adams vibes for some reason

[@LucasBadamragchaa]

have any of you noticed that in ending Anita and Roger each got dalmatians(pongo and forgot the name), and if you remember original animation 1961 the film starts with a guy and woman meets each other while with their dalmatians and their name was same as in this movie(pongo and other dog).

[@AkriteChea]

How is this movie so great?? Emma stone is bae and this easily is the best live action Disney movie. Are we sure this wasn't an DCEU movie it was like a Batman begin meets Devil wears Prada but with less blood

You should watch HEARTSTOPPER NOW!
