re: Okay so I saw Cruella and it’s better than it looks

Just saw this with my wife in the theater because none of the other movies showing were appealing at all. It was okay, but they were clearly trying to make Cruella the hero of the story and I just can't care about her at all.

Race swapping the lead character from the original movies was eye-rolling, but she was only a minor character in this movie so no big deal really. No chance I would watch a 101 Dalmatians remake with a black chick in that role though.

ETA: I think they originally wrote it to have her kill the dalmatians. Certain parts make less sense after she didn't do that.
