Inventive, fanciful, funny, scary, lush, imaginative, and dreamlike, the stop-motion animated feature "Coraline" is a feast for the eyes, especially in 3D. Director/writer Henry Selick uses 3D to enhance the story, as Coraline crawls through a magic door in her drab new house to find an alternative, visually deeper, and much more interesting version of her life there, complete with an Other Mother. The story may be too intense for young children, but older kids and adults will revel in its sophistication, wit, dazzling visuals.
Rated PG. 100 minutes. Henry Selick - Director / Writer (screenplay), Neil Gaiman - Writer (book), Claire Jennings - Producer, Mary Sandell - Producer, Pete Kozachik - Cinematographer, Bruno Coulais - Composer, They Might Be Giants - Composer, Christopher Murrie - Editor, Ronald Sanders - Editor.
Voices: Dakota Fanning, Teri Hatcher, Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders, and Ian McShane.
