About this movie

From the Director of The Nightmare Before Christmas comes a visually stunning stop-motion animated feature like you've never seen before! Coraline Jones is bored in her new home until she finds a secret door that leads her into a world that's just like her own…but better! But when this fantastical adventure turns dangerous and her "other" Mother tries to keep her forever, Coraline must count on her resourcefulness and bravery to get home. Critics are hailing Coraline as "A remarkable feat of imagination." (Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times).

Ratings and reviews

Tbh This should be more expensive lol. I see movies on here for like 5 dollars and coraline (IMO) is the best movie on here. Or anywhere. Coraline has been my favorite movie since 2009, so since it came out. I'm a teen girl now and I still love it just as much. #1 movie ever made. I honestly think I have watched it around 1000 times. I watch it like 3 times a week, sometimes every day. As a little girl I'd watch it more than 4 times a day. Its eerie but not scary. It also is magical tbh. ❤❤

One of the scariest claymation films in recent memory. (Not that there's a ton of competition.) I really loved the book and although the film does stray a bit from the source material, it doesn't take away from the cinematic experience. Gorgeous visuals displayed against a bleak background sets the stage perfectly for the terrifying mystery of the story. And what a mystery it turns out to be! Highly recommend watching and if you haven't read the book, it's more than worth it!

Coraline is a movie like no other. The stop motion is out of this world. The quirky blend of characters and the contrast between the two worlds captures childhood innocence and curiosity in the most fascinating way. The soundtrack also is like no other and blends perfectly into the theme of the film. The movie is both luring and captivating which ultimately keeps you on your toes and is simply magical in every single way.
