as a neil gaiman fan, i had high expectations for the film adaptation. i’ve read the book just a couple of months ago, and was actually thrilled to find out that there’s a movie.
and after getting to watch it yesterday afternoon, i said to myself that this is an instant classic. good job in the storytelling and 3d animation. the details were outstanding. neil gaiman should be happy how the movie turned out.
the movie is not a carbon copy of the book. but I’d say it is still very truthful to the book for creating a charming yet creepy visual treat. i like the addition of wybie - a character not found in the book. the kid added a new flavor to the already well-crafted story.
read and watch coraline. you get the best of both worlds.
