101 Dalmatians [Blu-ray][Region-Free][UK Import]

Just what I was looking for. I couldn’t care less about the dvd and the blue ray. With three little boys, I wanted and needed the digital code, as my boys have scratched many dvds. Although the digital code expired over a year ago (2/2017) I was able to redeem it today (6/2018) and watch it. I thought I was going to have to wait an x amount years until it came out the vault again but thank goodness I didn’t.

I'm ecstatic to report that the movie "101 Dalmatians" arrived on time and safely sealed and packaged. Furthermore, as my subject implied: It was every bit as magically enjoyable as it was over 50 years ago! Although I was a bit too young to see it then: I saw it later and was positively mezmorized by it! When the movie was released: Mom got me records containing the 4 main songs from the feature. Although they definitely weren't The Original Sound track: I came to love them over the years! As for the DVD: The only thing I found to be inconvenient was the fact that it downloaded in French; and I had to convert it to English before watching it. Upon first inserting the DVD: All the initial group of ads were in English. therefore: When the movie started in French: I wasn't certain if this would be temporary or not. However: As it continued: I decided to try and convert The Language to English. The only things I found dissatisfying about this is that I wasn't alerted of this fact upon purchasing the movie. Fortunately: This was only a minor inconvenience that was easily corrected. IN closing: Let me assure all future readers that I was totally satisfied with this purchase; and would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone who enjoys old movies which are fit for entire families to watch! My sincere thanks goes out to everyone who was instrumental in making my obtaining of this marvelous DVD possible! I absolutely love it!

I am so happy I found this blu ray of 101 dalmations! I loved the film as a child and havent seen it since I was about 8 or 9. I choked back tears of joy when the theme song started.This is wonderful. the movie is just as good as I remembered it, and even better in some scenes I'd forgotten!There are so many fun extras to watch.This is a joy! Thank you so much!

Arrived sooner than expected! New, sealed with working code. Looks amazing just as how I remember.

I LOVE this movie and was thrilled that I could still download the digital copy on Movies Anywhere on 6/27/18 even though the code expired 2/10/17!

This is my most favorite movie of all time. So delighted I found this DVD on Amazon because my two (yes, two) VHS copies don't really do me any good any more.

101 Dalmatians is one hour and twenty - nine minutes and was released to theaters on January 25, 1961. The main story is that Roger and Anita Radcliffe own two adult dalmatians Pongo and Perdita and Perdita have given birth to fifteen dalmaitians. Cruella de Vil has made a deal with Anita to buy her dalmatians when the puppies have their spots. However, Roger stands up to Cruella de Vil and reneges on the deal and this makes Cruella mad. Cruella send Jasper and Horace to kidnap the puppies. Pongo and Perdita send out a Twilight Bark to other dogs for help to find their puppies. Pongo and Perdita get a response and the two are off to rescue their puppies. With the help with some other dogs and farm animals all 101 dogs are save and Roger and Anita keep all 101 dalmatians.Some trivia for the reader; someone with a lot of time on his or her went to count the dog's black spot frame by frame and came to a total of 6,469,952. Because the Disney Studios lost money on Sleeping Beauty, 101 Dalmatians was film using photocopying technology (Xerography) and that set the style for film making for the next twenty years with the exception of the Jungle Book, Mary Poppins, and Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Cruella de Vil character is based on the actress Tallulah Bankhead. 101 Dalmatians won a BAFTA award in 1961 for the Best Animated Film. Three dogs from "Lady and the Tramp" make a cameo appearance: Peg, the Bulldog, and Jacque. Of all the fifteen puppies only six actually have names. Although 101 Dalmatians may not make Disney's 10 all time greatest list, it is still a good movie to watch. 101 Dalmatians gets an AAA+++.DVD FEATURESChapter SelectionBonus MaterialI.

Digitally i could get a copy on itunes and VUDU. This studio is doing the right thing that allows me to watch the movie and not have to juggle 600 apps on where i need to watch the movie. If i own the movie i should also receive a digital copy on any provider. If i shell out 15-20 for a movie when everyone else is stealing them digitally i should be rewarded for it. Disney is doing the right thing by Disney Movies Anywhere.

Having originally viewed '101 Dalmatians' when it first appeared in the cinemas, it made a distinct impression on me, as it represented state-of-the-art animation at the time and was, in my opinion, beautifully made and represented Disney productions at their best.Although I originally owned a twenty minute Super-8 film version produced by Disney in the late 70s/early 80s, which replicated the closest I could get to the "big screen" experience at that time, this DVD looks absolutely stunning on my 50" Panasonic Viera television. In fact it looks as good as it did in the cinema. (Bear in mind that I am writing about the DVD version here and have not seen the latest Blu-ray version, which will have to be pretty exceptional to supersede the quality evident in this DVD (viewed via an upscaling DVD player).Modern audiences are used to extremely sophisticated animation techniques and their 3D variants, which are far removed from the traditional approaches which were applied in the making of this film (and which make it a true classic of its time).It therefore may not appeal to those who have been weaned on the highly imaginative and successful animated box-office blockbusters of today, who may feel that it is rather dated when seen against the current competition.However traditionalists and those with fond memories of this film from the past will, I am sure, find this to be an excellent purchase and a valuable addition to their collection.

Bought this for my 3-year old granddaughter and it has been a really big hit. As soon as she comes in, she wants to see the "dalamations" and all her toy animals have been transformed into dalmations to try and make them up to the big number of 101.One useful thing about DVDs is the ability to move back or forward to different scenes and I have found that on this DVD, as with some of the other children's DVDs - certain scenes are watched over and over, while she watches something she particularly enjoys. This also seems to be good for learning about life and motivations.The villain, Cruella is an absolutely amazing creation. Her driving skills, the car, and her characterisation are all fantastic and the scene near the end where she is driving after the lorry with the pups in it is absolutely fantastic. Some of the puppies, especially Rolly, are also memorable. Some other great characters are Sergeant Tibbs and the Colonel.Pongo and Perdie are of course the stars of the film and some of the scenes are particularly appealing to children, especially near the start, where Pongo manages to tip both his "pets" into the pond while trying to get them to meet. Another good scene is where Pongo and Perdie are struggling through the snow with the puppies. While I have mentioned these scenes in particular, the whole film is really enjoyable.The film is now, of course, quite old and the only negative aspect is that Roger smokes a pipe. I mention this only because it is so surprising to see that, these days.

What can you say about the Disney animated film of Dodie Smith's classic book. The animated version is far superior to the live action remake and in my own humble opinion is the last of the Disney films which can be described as a classic.My daughters loved this movie and so do my granddaughters and I must admit that it is no hardship to sit through it again with them when the come to visit.

My son loves his DVD, he watches it every night .Thankyou
