Cruella is one of the best films of all time, and I honestly wonder why Disney wastes time promoting its silly remakes instead of this masterpiece, arguably the best thing it has ever produced. The most hated villain from Disney’s old films finally gets an origin story, which I believe stands completely apart from the animated movies, since she simply cannot be the same person.
The Cruella we see here, played by Emma Stone, who delivers an even stronger performance than in Lanthimos’ films (change my mind), is ruthless, brilliant, an anti-hero, a fashion queen, and far from a soulless monster. On the contrary, she’s a complex, fully realized character with a clear beginning, middle, and end. Honestly, one of my favorite movies ever.
