Cruella

Full review: https://www.tinakakadelis.com/beyond-the-cinerama-dome/2021/12/28/punk-fashion-cruella-review There are many aspects of _Cruella_ that are easy to love. The campiness of Emma Stone’s performance as the titular Cruella, Emma Thompson doing her best Meryl Streep in a The Devil Wears Prada impression, the fashion, the development of Anita Darling’s character (lovingly played by Kirby Howell-Baptiste). All of these things make _Cruella_ the perfect summer movie. It’s a film that doesn’t take a lot of brainpower to follow, and it leaves the audience feeling light and happy. This is a summer blockbuster with loose ties to a beloved franchise and a guaranteed instant hit for Disney.
