I love, love, love, to watch movies. So I thought it would be fun to rate movies. So I hope that you all find it entertaining and maybe even helpful! I will rate out of five stars. If you have any suggestions of movies you think I might like to watch leave a comment.

Coraline (PG; intense scenes):  This movie is about a girl and her relationship with her parents.  She is constantly brushed aside by her parents because they are busy with work.  She is a strong willed spirited child that wishes her parents and her life were better.   Coraline is a cautionary tale to children, "Be careful what you wish for."  Review:   The movie has a very strong Tim Burton vibe but is actually done by Henry Selick, and was reminiscent of Alice through the looking glass.  Aside from that, I think the movie is very good the stop action animation is wonderful, it is beatiful to watch, and wildly imaginative.  I was completely drawn in and at times a nail biter for me.  Having said that, I would not suggest it for children under the age of 12, it is a bit intense for younger children.  *****

I think this was a Neil Gaimin story. He does a lot of 'through the looking glass' themes in his stories.
