2.0 out of 5 stars Attack of the Red and Green Glasses!, 13 Oct 2009
By Damo (Notts, UK) - See all my reviews
It is a bit odd that the majority of the reviews of this dvd are reviews of the film, not of the product you're thinking of buying. Like everyone else, yes, I'm a fan of Neil Gaiman, love his work, saw the film in stunning 3-D at the cinema and loved it.
When I saw that the DVD was going to have a 2-D and a 3-D version I was ecstatic! As the rest of my family had missed the trip to the cinema here was my chance to finally show them the wonder of this new 3-D process. Both my wife and I have been eagerly awaiting the release date so that we could sit there watching 3-D in our own living room. It sounds too good to be true. It is.
Instead of the polarized 3-D process which I saw at the cinema, which shows off the true colours and has a constant 'depth of field' we have again for the DVD release, the Red and Green glasses, which might give some illusion of 3-D (sort of)but are more likely to give you squiffy eyes and distort all the colours so much you wonder why you're bothering.
I think if I'd known that it was the Red/Green process that was going to be used then I might not have bothered.

4.0 out of 5 stars "...No Coraline..." said the Evil Spider. "I'm Your "Other" Mother...", 29 Oct 2009
By Mark Barry at Revival Records, West End (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (VINE VOICE)   
I would echo other reviews of "Coraline" - an absolute wow on the 2D BLU RAY image - but gimmicky, dark and blurry on the 3D version.

This is aimed at both the kids and their accompanying parents - childlike enough to capture the wee ones for two hours, but adult enough in other ways to keep us old-folk glued. My 11 and 15 year olds loved it, though I would say it might be a bit 'too' scary for children younger than that (it's quite sinister in parts - this is not saccharine Disney, but Tim Burton territory - and he rarely panders nor holds back).

Four flimsy card glasses are provided for the 3D version (you choose either 2D or 3D from the main menu), but as you watch it, they irritate and you're far too aware of them. Pixar's "Up" had proper 3D glasses when we went to see it at the cinema and they made a huge difference to both the quality of the 3D effect and the comfort (too busy enjoying the film to notice).

The 2D version couldn't be more different. The BLU RAY image is awesome - really bringing out the workmanship that went into each shot. The richness of the animation and the hugely imaginative way all the characters look in every single scene - it's all an absolute blast. The vocal work is typically ace too (Dakota Fanning shines) and the story of parents and their children straying apart is like a dark Brothers Grimm tale that will unfortunately ring too true for many. The extras are superb too. Shame the whole thing is let down by the 3D side of things.

To sum up - and despite some niggles - the gobsmacking beauty of the print, the great voice talent and the dead clever grown-up story make it all worthwhile.

This is one you'll watch again and again - and impress friends with. Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars brilliant, 30 May 2009
By Mrs. S. L. Vincent "SARAH" (ENGLAND) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This film is a must see film,with brilliant graphics and the brilliant stuff motion animation you as a viewer will never get bored.

If you are going to buy a film at any time "CORALINE" is the film to get. It is suitable for familys as it is rated PG if you like the TIM BURTON style then this film will blow you away.

thanks for reading my review.
