Coraline 4K Blu-ray Movie Review
An essential 4K UHD upgrade.
Reviewed by Neil Lumbard December 21, 2022
Coraline is one of the best and most unique animated films. Using exceptional stop-motion animation, the film is a
unique visual experience and one that will mesmerize audiences with beautiful animation, creative storytelling, and a haunting score. Based on the
original book by Neil Gaiman (The Sandman), Coraline is a modern
masterpiece and one of the most creative animated films the medium of film has seen to date. Executive produced by Michael Zoumas
(Venom), Coraline offers plenty of fantastical and exciting elements to keep audiences entertained and
engrossed from beginning to end.
A remarkable steelbook edition for an animated classic.
