Violence & Gore

Mild
30 of 36 found this mild
A character states "I'll skin every one of them little spotted hyenas, if it's the last thing I do.'' Referring to the puppies. It is a violent saying.
Many car crashes with no injuries.
The scene where Pongo and Perdita fight Jasper and Horace has a lot of "slapstick violence" and destruction of the room, but still kind of serious as the two men have the intention to kill them and the puppies and both Pongo and Perdita react like dog parents protecting their children, which is also pretty serious.
A puppy is implied to have been stillborn, but is resuscitated.
A woman asks a criminal if he "did someone in".
Multiple statements about skinning puppies and making a fur coat.
Cruella yanks a bottle of alcohol out of Jasper's hands and throws it into the fireplace causing an explosion to suddenly happen. No injuries but it shows the extent of her rage as she slaps the two guys after that, all of which could be unsettling.
Some mild cartoon action.

Profanity

None
27 of 44 found this to have none
Repeatedly Cruella's mansion is called Hell Hall. However, this is in the context of referring to a location, not as a curse word.
One or two uses of 'blasted'.

Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking

Mild
33 of 38 found this mild
Roger smokes a pipe.
Cruella smokes a cigarette with a long cigarette holder.
Jasper is shown in one scene with a wine bottle and a cigar.

Frightening & Intense Scenes

Mild
29 of 35 found this mild
During the final car chase there is a quick shot of Cruella's maniacal face. Her eyes are red and she looks pretty angry. This image can frighten young children.
The antagonist is trying to make Dalmatian puppies into fur coats. The thought of hurting the puppies may be unsettling to young children.
Cruella De Vil is very cruel to her vile henchmen, Horace and Jasper, her classmate, Anita and her husband, Roger and especially the puppies. She hires Horace and Jasper to steal the puppies after Roger refuses to sell them and is just generally very mean. Younger viewers might be a little afraid of her.
Throughout the movie and when confronting Horace and Jasper at the De Vil mansion, Pongo and Perdita's realistic looking vicious dog facial expressions can be considered scary to sensitive viewers.
The car chase scene is rough and intense.
Moderate for neurodivergent/autistic viewers.
Whenever Pongo and Perdita are angry, their angry dog expressions can be pretty frightening due to looking almost realistic.
