Premise: Coraline Jones is ignored by her parents and is very bored at her new home. She discovers a secret door in her living room that takes her to an “other” alternate life. Things seems dreamy until her other mom gets a little needy. Then it gets creepy.
I love this book. It is creepy and scary but doesn’t back down like most children’s books. The movie is a good adaptation of the book and really brings the characters and images to life almost exactly how I imagined them. There is this great sense of creepiness from frame 1. The animation is fantastic and so seamless that I forgot it wasn’t computer animation but stop motion. The story drags a little but overall I liked this a lot. Got an A- for the quality of the animation. I saw this in 2-D but may have to go find a 3-D showing.
