Coraline

Rating: 9/10 (10 May 2009)

I went to see this film last night with my friend from work, alittle worried that it wouldn't live up to the hype. Boy was I wrong. This film is probably not for those of us who are self confessed wimp (like my friend) but it IS fantastically creepy and engaging. Although I was at times alittle freaked out, I was also with Coraline all the way. Even my friend admitted that she was so involved in the film that when it seemed that Coraline had no hope she was actually panicking about how she would get out of her predicament, something which I can honestly say no other Kids film has managed to get me to do.
I would definitely recommend this to those brave souls who like to be freaked out-even some kids would love this. But I would warn parents of younger or sensitive children, this is probably too much! If your kid is scared of the bogeyman and the dark, avoid this, or there will be tears at bedtime!
