Dove Review

Although there are a few scary moments, including a villain picking up a nasty looking knife with which he plans on skinning the puppies, the 5 and 6-year-olds who attended the screening with me seemed more entranced than frightened. They protected Uncle Phil. Zany, full of slapstick humor and some tender moments, 102 Dalmatians should be a hit with the younger crowd.

Real life puppies seem to be endangered as they attempt to rescue other puppies set to be killed to make a Dalmatian coat for the evil Cruella De Vil; several times Cruella strikes her bumbling minion; he in turn keeps injuring himself through slapstick situations; there is a wild climactic chase ending with De Vil being baked in a giant cake, but she is not killed, just stunned.

Some loud, scary music; Cruella is a frightening creation, so parents should be there to reassure.
