Coraline In 3-D Movie Review With Spoilers

January 17, 2009 in Movies, News, Nightmare Before Christmas, Reviews

coraline2      Directed by Henry Sellick 

Dakota Fanning     …    Coraline (voice)

Ian McShane     …    Mr. Bobinski (voice)

Teri Hatcher     …    Coraline’s Mother / Other Mother (voice)

Keith David     …    The Cat (voice)

Jennifer Saunders     …    Miss Forcible (voice)
    Dawn French     …    Miss Spink (voice)
    John Hodgman     …    Coraline’s Father / Other Father (voice)

 

We were lucky enough to see an advance screening of the film which opens in wide release February 6th. Henry Sellick has directed both the Nightmare Before Christmas and James and the Giant Peach so he knows his way around stop animation filming.  Usually 3-D movies have only a few 3-D effects and most are lackluster or just some random thing popping out at you. This movie is designed to be seen in 3-D as the entire film and not just some stunt work. As such it is a much better 3-D experience and is without a doubt the best 3-D film I have ever seen. (This even includes Nightmare Before Christmas).
