coraline - 2009

I give this 7-8 points out of 10.

When I first saw this movie it was in an advertisement / trailer and the beginning was intriguing ... Very interesting plot work and unique graphic details... from the beginning it tells you the story isn't like cliche story types, and the heroine appears to be just like an ordinary girl with her problems instead of the stereotyped damsel in distress or the one who is compelled or is suddenly aiming to save the world. The starting point is cast in a unique set (those pine trees and dolls look real lol), with a unique environment and unique yet familiar characters that can be related to everyday circumstances. Overall its the unique, classic touch of this film that sets if apart from the others. It's not my type of movie but its certainly a fresh, exotic take on a cartoon film which is good nowadays with so many cliches
