Right on Target! :)

Rating: 10/10 (12 February 2009)

In all honesty, this movie looked only okay at first. I went into the movie theater, expecting nothing too amazing. Of course, I knew that Tim Burton was one of the big names behind this movie (he's the same guy who made "The Nightmare Before Christmas") but I still - more or less expected an average movie. Little did I know how wrong I was.
Coraline was a brilliant movie. No, not as good as Finding Nemo or Wall- E, but still an outstanding movie that I give my props to. I'm not a real big fan with the doll style of animation, but I put that aside. The story itself portrayed that good old moral, "Be careful what you wish for" in an amazing way that I have never seen or read before. The visuals, despite my dislikes, were very good seeing how hard it must have been. Combined with that and the music, it creates a vivid world for you to digest easily - along with your popcorn and soda or whatever food you may choose.
Little kids may enjoy this movie, but I think mid-age children up will find this movie more interesting or at least get the moral better. Above all, I think this is one great movie that is a must-see for everyone.
