In a Disney animation classic, Dalmatian Pongo is tired of his bachelor-dog life. He spies lovely Perdita and maneuvers his master, Roger, into meeting Perdita's owner, Anita. The owners fall in love and marry, keeping Pongo and Perdita together too. After Perdita gives birth to a litter of 15 puppies, Anita's old school friend Cruella De Vil wants to buy them all. Roger declines her offer, so Cruella hires the criminal Badun brothers to steal them -- so she can have a fur coat.

Critics Consensus

With plenty of pooches and a memorable villain (Cruella De Vil), this is one of Disney's most enduring, entertaining animated films.

Sight & Sound

The fairly long in the tooth child, through whose eyes most Disney dramas, live or otherwise, are seen, seems to have grown up Just a little; a fact which should please adults while not offending the young.

The Dissolve

However much the film breaks with Disney tradition, it's still a winning effort that mixes cuteness with dry wit in the service of a fast-paced, emotionally charged adventure tale.

Rated: 4/5

Daily Telegraph (UK)

This loveable romp evokes a gloomy, starlit London of Georgian streets and quietly grand parks.

Rated: 4/5

Finding clever ways to inject style and personality into the film's animation, characters, and writing, the film creates an entertaining viewing experience.

Sunday Times (UK)

Among the many contributions of Disney and his team to the cinema, this is perhaps the strangest: they have made us watch with heart in mouth the adventures of beings who exist only as the projection of photographs and colored drawings.

A movie for dog lovers. This movie is the dawn of Disney’s Xerox style of animation, which I am not a fan of, and that lasted until “The Little Mermaid” in 1989. Cruella de Vil is a great villain with a great design, but she is the most memorable part of the movie. The story is simple, and that might be my problem with it, that it is too simple.

After rewatching this movie after not remembering much about it as kid I actually really enjoyed it! It's got such a timeless charm to it. All very lovable characters but it goes without saying that Cruella steals the show. She's an excellent villain and a joy to watch. While I did think some of the animal scenes in the later half dragged a bit I will definitely revisit this movie. The art style is also another highlight. Definitely one of the better Disney movies from that era.

I love the aesthetics of this film, this 2d design and the fluid movement of the animation is pleasant. The main humans and lovable canines bring cuteness and fun to a busy adventure, and Cruella's personality is great for this type of villain.
