Coraline
Alice In Wonderland meets Edward Scissorhands
Plot
Coraline (Fanning) moves to a new home, where she feels neglected by her stressed-out parents. When she finds a door leading to a happier mirror on her own world, with a loving ‘Other Mother’ (Hatcher), everything seems perfect — but there’s danger lurking..
Verdict
Terrifying and beautiful, believable and fantastical, this is one of the best children’s films in years and Selick’s finest — better even than The Nightmare Before Christmas.
