- TriviaGlenn Close, who played the first live-action Cruella DeVil in 101 Dalmatians (1996) and 102 Dalmatians (2000), serves as executive producer for this movie.
- GoofsCruella crashes a car into an old-fashioned British red phone box, which buckles on impact. These phone boxes were made of cast iron which would, with sufficient force, break, not bend.
- Quotes
Cruella de Vil: They say there are five stages of grief. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Well, I'd like to add one more. Revenge
- Crazy creditsThere are scenes in the closing credits: Anita and Roger receive a gift of two Dalmatians (one each) from Cruella. The dogs are named Pongo and Perdita, the parent dogs from 101 Dalmatians. Roger then starts to play the Cruella de Vil song from One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961).

Featured review
I was so expecting to hate this!
I had no interest in seeing "Cruella"...none at all. After all, I really hated the two previous live action films based on the "101 Dalmatians" series. But my daughter insisted I watch it with her, as she said it is a silly but really enjoyable film...and after seeing it I agree. But I would also add that it is very well written...and I loved some of the dialog. I was expecting to give it a 2 or 3 and end up now giving it a 9!
The story in no way involves Cruella trying to make coats out of puppies. Instead, it's a prequel in which you see what helped to create the evil and god-awful Cruella we've all come to love in the full length cartoon. I'd say more...but think it's just a film you see for yourself.
Overall, an amazingly well written and very entertaining film. My only complaint, and it's a minor one, is that the music is too much...too loud and distracting. But otherwise, it's a terrific and very entertaining film.
