In 1970s London amidst the punk rock revolution, a young grifter named Estella is determined to make a name for herself with her designs. She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets. One day, Estella’s flair for fashion catches the eye of the Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly haute. But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable and revenge-bent Cruella.

Weaker than hoped in the first half, but hits its stride in the second act. Individual moments are genuinely funny. The finale is a bit rushed, but doesn't ruin the impression.
For those who want a mood lift without effort. Fans of dark or intellectual comedy — move along.
