As a fan of the movie Coraline, I wanted to see <wbr />ParaNorman in 3D - before it is no longer in the<wbr />aters. The 3D was ok, probably just as good in 2<wbr />D. Story held together, with many memorable char<wbr />acters.  It is unfair to compare Coraline to Par<wbr />aNorman - they are entirely different stories, b<wbr />oth are wonderful. However, if I had to pick one<wbr /> of these, Coraline is my favorite. 
<br />
<br />ParaNorm<wbr />an is probably too scary for very young children<wbr />, although none of the little ones seemed unduly<wbr /> frightened during the screening that I attended<wbr />. I highly recommend ParaNorman, see it before i<wbr />t disappears!
