Review


Coraline finds a secret door in her house and on the other side is an alternate version of her life where everyone has buttons for eyes. In this life everything seems perfect but of course looks are deceiving. Although this is supposed to be a movie for kids, it is quite dark and sinister. This edge makes Coraline appealing to adults as well as kids looking for a spook. Very imaginative and strange, Coraline is a cutely-creepy movie you will enjoy.
