101 Dalmatians, has earned higher review scores than the live action film Mulan from Chinese moviegoers, who have applauded the former's flashy and fashionable outfits while also criticizing it as a less interesting copy of the 2006 comedy film
The Devil Wears Prada.
Cruella, which premiered in the Chinese mainland on Sunday, had earned 7.76 million yuan ($1.21 million) as of Sunday afternoon, according to Chinese ticketing platform Maoyan.
The film has so far earned a 6.8/10 score on Chinese media review platform Douban, a far higher score than the 5/10 earned by Disney's other live action film Mulan.
