Great Film
logangard28 October 2019
A really enjoyable movie. The story is compelling and the villain(s) are threatening. Some of my favorite aspects of this film are animation, acting, characters, character development, and mood building. This movie isn't anything too terrifying, but if your child, (or yourself) are frightened there are scenes and imagines that are quite scary for an animated film. Definitely worth a watch.

Coraline finds a whole new interesting world but soon finds out that not everything is so perfect...

Warning: Spoilers
Coraline moves to a new house, old and boring, and having nothing to do goes exploring. She finds out about a locked door with nothing but bricks behind them. But one night, Coraline discovers a path through them leading to a strange new world, almost exact same as hers. Only, her parents are wonderful, and everything seems so much more interesting. Cats are talking, her 'other mother' is cooking, her new friend doesn't talk as much and her room is filled with toys and colors. But as the story unravels it's up to her to help the lost soles trapped by 'her other mother' and find a way back home... Another thrilling movie by Tim Burton worth watching, whatever age you are..

Thank you for this miracle film Henry Selick
wrmcppqmc10 September 2022
One of the best animated films of our generation that I have seen. Apart from his universe, his atmosphere, his originality, his perfect blackness, his humor, his poetry and his charming characters. In fact, this cartoon is a real miracle, a real pearl, which struck me and captured me from the first minutes. Grace for starters has just outstanding directing and animation. This is the first thing that caught my eye, and I was immediately worried. The animation and style of the film are really huge: it is made very manually, sewn on a simply magnificent background. And a very dark, very mature universe, really sublime and very strange. And he made me think about the universe and Burton's style all at once. By the way, for reference, it was the director of "Mr. Jack's strange Christmas" who made this film, and it is clear that he perfectly owns what he does. So, voila, the animation is impressive and original, the universe and style are very dark, very inventive and poetic with a wonderful color scheme: finally, voila, just great. Then the following scenario: we are immersed and carried away from the beginning to the end. Thanks to this story and this universe, so peculiar, as well as filled with originality and ingenuity. With an exciting, mature and very dark story that immerses us in a universe where reality and dreams merge together. And we're going to follow Coraline: a fearless, inquisitive and imaginative little girl who lives in a not very rich family in a very dark universe. She dreams of another life in his image. But as soon as she tasted it and lost her real life, she regrets it. Because whenever we lose things, we realize that we love them. So, she will have to fight between two worlds and against an evil and terrifying wizard who must have scared her a lot. Also, the very black and mature atmosphere makes this movie quite creepy and so exceptional. So, voila, an exciting and fascinating story has perfect blackness, and is also filled with surprises, poetry and black humor. Not forgetting about the very cute characters, with a real soul and really interesting to follow. And finally, the music is great throughout, which makes the film so exceptional and very black. Voila, one of the most beautiful animated films I have ever seen, because it immediately transported me to an exceptional and unique universe. For me, this is a huge love, and I strongly recommend that you do it, otherwise you will miss a real miracle.

Animated masterpiece
vanessapinzon-938445 October 2023
Coraline is an American stop motion animated film written and directed by Henry Selick, and released in 2009. Based on Neil Gaiman's novel, the movie is a masterpiece in terms of dark storytelling and meticulous animation.

The story follows Coraline Jones, a girl who moves to an old house with her parents. Bored and neglected, Coraline discovers a secret door that leads her to an alternate world that seems perfect. However, she soon discovers that this world hides dark secrets and dangers.

What makes "Coraline" so special is its unique and detailed visual style. The stop-motion animation is stunning and manages to create a surreal and unsettling world that contrasts perfectly with Coraline's sad reality. In fact, it is arguably the most visually enchanting stop-motion animated film to date.

The film explores profound themes such as dissatisfaction, the pursuit of happiness, and the value of family. Furthermore, Coraline is a brave heroine who confronts her fears to solve the problems she faces. Therefore, in terms of character development, Coraline, undergoes a deeper transformation than most animated characters. Her journey is more profound and her resilience is even greater, making her one of the most compelling heroines in animated cinema.

As for storytelling, "Coraline" is certainly more unique and imaginative than many other family-friendly films. The plot is darker and more intricate than typical children's movies, making it one of the most creatively engaging films in the genre.

Finally, Caroline is an animated film, it engages all types of audiences interested in dark stories . Since its release, it has been generally well received by critics and the public and interesting conspiracy theories continue to emerge around the story.

(NDS) You'll get a better handheld experience from the book
thinkabout4215 February 2023
A game based on a movie based on a book. For a handheld console, no less. Usually a recipe for a disaster.

And yet at first it doesn't feel that way. The graphics are pretty pleasant and the soundtrack is nice. The game occasionally even references the book, which is a welcome surprise. The retelling of the plot is pretty coherent and there are no missing details. So, as a retelling of the movie, it's a great one. But as a game... Coraline for NDS is a point-and-click adventure, a very boring one at that. You barely get to interact with anything and most of your time will be spent going in circles across locations and talking with the very few characters the story has. Occasionally there are minigames, but they are short and mundane. The game has really nothing captivating to offer in terms of gameplay.

And as it turns out, this game is just like a beautiful candy wrapper with no candy inside. If you really want to reexperience the movie, then reading the book would be a much more pleasant and exciting experience.
