Sarah and I went to see Coraline last night. I love stop animation and this film delivered in so many ways. Beautifully crafted. The 3D effects were pretty remarkable too. I think the last 3D movie I saw was JAWS 3 . Whew, that's been a while. Anyhow, any time I go to see something like this I try to clear my mind and get back into my 1o year old boy head. It makes it more fun.I read the book by Neil Gaiman just last week. The movie deviates a bit from the book. I rather like the story in the book more to tell the truth. And I think the book is more creepy since I envisioned all the characters as humans (not puppets). That said the movie in itself is pretty brilliant. Highly recommended.
