One of the best movies I have ever seen.

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2009)

What a truly spectacular CGI masterpiece. The acting is superb, the effects are dazzling and the plot/storyline is placed together sensationally. Dakota Fanning leads the cast as an intelligent 11-year-old girl, who comes across a secret door that leads to an alternate universe. Teri Hatcher plays Coraline's hard-working mother, as well as Other Mother and she plays the part extremely well. Teri's performance is amazing, as is the rest of the cast.
Whilst the target audience is probably for kids under 15, the story certainly relates to adults and is enjoyable for an all-round audience.
The film is probably inappropriate for little kids, due to some scary and disturbing scenes, and some of the violence depicted exceeds a PG level. Coraline is a true masterpiece and is absolutely spectacular.
Highly recommended!! You could probably benefit from reading the book before seeing the movie. A family/kids movie at its best!!
