I had high hopes for Coraline and had read good things about it, so I was looking forward to seeing it this weekend when Sam came to visit. It seemed interesting and quirky and I liked that it was made using old-school stop-motion animation rather than computer animation.
In the end though? I never got into it and plot was just not compelling or even followable in some parts, which maybe is because it is based on a book. It definitely could have been suffering from the whole Harry Potter Syndrome where people who haven't already read the books don't really have a prayer of understanding what the hell is going on.
On the plus side, we got to wear fun 3-D glasses, and the visuals in the movie were lovely.
