Caroline and the secret door

Coraline Jones (voiced by Dakota Fanning) is an 11-year-old girl full of live,


curiosity and much more adventurous than her age would suggest. He has just
moved with his parents (Teri Hatcher, John Hodgman) from Michigan to
Oregon. He misses his friends, and seeing that his parents are overwhelmed
with work, he decides to find some distraction in the neighborhood. Wybie
Lovat (Robert Bailey Jr), a boy her age who lives in the neighborhood, wants
to be her friend, but she considers him annoying. He visits his neighbors, two
eccentric English actresses called Miss Spink and Miss Forcible (Jennifer
Saunders and Dawn French) and the even more eccentric Russian Mr.
Bobinsky (Ian McShane). After these experiences, Coraline begins to
seriously doubt whether her new home will offer her any fun... But he is
wrong. He discovers a secret door inside his house. All you have to do is cross
the threshold of the door and walk down a gloomy hallway to enter another
version of your life. Apparently, this parallel reality is similar to his life, but
better. The adults, including a very kind Other Mother (also voiced by Teri
Hatcher), seem much more affectionate. Even the mysterious Cat (Keith
David) is more likeable. Coraline begins to think that she belongs in this Other
World. But when the amazing and fantastical visit begins to turn dangerous
and the Other Mother plans to keep her forever, Coraline must call on all her
resourcefulness, determination and bravery to return home and save her
family. In my opinion it is a very cool movie that has many elements and a
great moral which is that in real life, many people can fall into the temptation
of looking for something more, something better, without appreciating what
they have in front of them. History shows that this mentality can lead us down
a dangerous path and that it is important to recognize and appreciate what is
really important in life.
