Coraline Storyline
Coraline moves to a new home where she feels bored and alone. She finds a bricked up passage in the wall, but during the night it opens up. She discovers a world that seems to be an alternate version of her life with only one slight difference- everything is better. And everyone has buttons for eyes. Coraline’s “other mother” invites her to stay forever if she lets her sew buttons, and Coraline begins to realize that this alternate universe is a trick to lure her in so her Other Mother can essentially “eat up her soul.” She has to rescue her parents from the Other Mother and make it home safely, relying on her tricks- and the help of a sassy talking cat, naturally.

Coraline Movie Reviews
Another New Standard In Artwork
Well, it’s happened again: another animated movie that can I describe “the greatest-looking animation I’ve ever seen!” (This has happened several times now in the past few years, and especially when them available on a stunning Blu-Ray disc transfer).
You literally have to see this animation to believe it…..and I’m talking about the 2-D, not the 3-D (which is not even in the same ballpark.) Forget the 3-D glasses and watch this as you would any other movie….and get the Blu-Ray, if you can. You’ll be extremely impressed at the colors and detail, and just plain blown away by it all.
Not only to the colors and detail dazzle, but the inventiveness here is really fun to watch and items change from one form or color to another. It reminded me of the Beatles’ “Yellow Submarine” but with more sophisticated art…..but the same cleverness.
To me, all of this made the story almost secondary but the latter is very interesting, too. The story is unique; quite different, with a good message getting everything you want not always being as attractive as that sounds. Once “Coraline” meets here “other” parents, you’ll really get hooked into this strange story filled with weird images and characters.
I only wish the Coraline had been a little bit nicer kid since it’s easier to root for someone when they’re likable but the story should keep you guessing and in suspense. That made the last half of the film very easy to get engrossed in because so many bizarre things happen here, you don’t know how it’s all going to end. Thus, I found myself not being concerned about her personality flaws. The minor characters in this story, by the way: such as “Mr. Bobinsky,” “Miss Forcible” and “Miss Spink” – are a real hoot.
I’d say this film is more for adults than kid, especially if one appreciates great artwork and creativity.
Wonderfully atmospheric with exquisite visuals
Adapted from Neil Gaimon’s book, comes Coraline, a truly wonderful animated film with lots going for it. The atmosphere was wonderful, people may find it too dark, but I for one loved how dark it was. And of course the visuals are absolutely exquisite, I loved the backgrounds, character designs and the darkly bold colours. The music is nice and quirky while having an appropriate atmosphere, while the script is intelligent and well balanced and the story is well paced and compelling with very few dull moments. The characters are great, I love Coraline especially because she is very inquisitive, and I like that in a protagonist, and the voice acting is superb especially from Dakota Fanning and Keith David. Overall, loved the atmosphere, loved the visuals, loved the flick. 9/10 Bethany Cox
The dullest animation ever made
Neil Gaiman isn’t doing very well in regards to his film adaptations, with this following on from the disappointing MIRRORMASK made a few years ago. CORALINE is the most dull, uninteresting and downright annoying animation I’ve seen in recent years, which is a surprise given that it was directed by Henry Selick, who made THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE Christmas so endearingly odd all those years ago.
The problem with CORALINE is the dumb Americanised storyline and the irritating characters. The titular character, complete with Dakota Fanning’s whiny voice, is the worst offender, but even the likes of the normally reliable Ian McShane come out of this badly. The only one who fares well is Keith David playing a cat, but then he’s barely utilised.
The animation was apparently done with stop motion, but you can’t tell. There’s none of the endearing jerkiness you expect from stop motion, instead this looks and feels like just another soulless CGI monstrosity. In addition, the storyline is extremely slim and stretched to breaking point by an over-long running time, and the visuals just aren’t there. CORALINE is a film I can recommend to nobody, unfortunately.
