Just watched on DVD,Coraline,a stop-motion film,directed by Henry Selick,who also did The Nightmare Before Christmas(1993) with Tim Burton’s “help”.
This is a lot less darker but still has a pinch of that Burton magic that must have been absorbed by Selick.
Our young heroine Coraline moves,with her Mum and Dad,to a new house but is bored,until she finds a secret door and discovers an alternate,better version of her life on the other side,but this seemingly perfect world turns dangerous and Coraline,along with the help of a scraggy cat,must use her resourcefulness,determination and bravery to save her family.
Mine was the 2 DVD set,containing a 3D version which must be avoided as it’s a red and green cardboard specs version which,for me,has never worked properly,compared to the latest Disney 3D stuff e.g. Bolt.The 2D version is sharp and crisp.Recommended for kids of all ages.
