The other worldly animation is perfectly matched with the voice actors. \u00a0And, it&#8217;s in 3D! \u00a0I spent the extra dollars to see it in 3D at the Bridgeport Cinemas. I thought the effects were great, particularly the weaving sewing needly and the tunnel between worlds. \u00a0The boys actually weren&#8217;t that impressed. Go figure. I&#8217;m sure the movie loses very little if you see it in a regular theatre.<\/p>\n<p>Warning: <em>Coraline<\/em> is scary, creepy, spooky. \u00a0Ben and Joe had no problem with that, but Sam (age 6) had to crawl into my lap for the second half of the movie. \u00a0And, he had a couple of nights of difficulty sleeping. \u00a0He&#8217;s usually pretty tough, but does give you the heebie jeebies.
