It was an exciting treat to be able to catch this new animation on 3D…for free! (thanks to omy). Based on the synopsis, this movie seemed to be very enchanting (I usually watch action flicks and romantic comedies) so I was really anticipating for 20th Oct preview of Coraline.
I feel that this show has an interesting way of telling people that “the grass may not be greener on the other side”. Like any other child, Coraline was trying very hard to adapt to her new home and demanded extra attention from her parents who were not giving her any. While in the midst of finding out more about her new home, she discovered a tiny door and that’s when her life was about to take on an adventurous twist.
The tiny door led Coraline into a magical world where everything seemed too perfect, like her mother was finally cooking dinner and her father was paying attention to her instead of his computer. Here comes the BUT part: Every living creature in this world had buttons for their eyes instead. Initially, Caroline was unfazed by it and anticipated nighttime to come everyday so that she could visit this wonderful side of her life. However, sometimes things might be too good to be true and she only realized it when her other mother showed her the pair of customizable buttons that would replace her eyes if she wanted to stay in this world for the rest of her life.
At this point of time, people will usually finally learn their lessons and learn how to fight back. Even though she was just a child, she was really brave enough to return to the nightmarish world where she had just escaped from, knowing very well that she might be walking into a trap. Together with a cat which Coraline initially despised in the normal world and a new eccentric friend, she had to use her wits and quick thinking strategies to battle against the monster in order to save the other children and her real parents.
It was a really interesting experience to watch the show through this way (even though the 3D glasses were not really comfortable to wear for a long duration). At times, things seemed to be flying straight at me right out of the movie screen; everything seemed so surreal. They thoroughly enhanced the process of watching the effects and I was quickly absorbed into the pace of the show. Overall, it was a truly memorable experience and I totally enjoyed it :)
