What it’s like to see the “Other World” in 3D
As someone who loved the original Coraline movie, I was really excited to see the new 3D edition for its 15th anniversary.
The spooky, magical world of Coraline has always been a favorite of mine, so I was curious to see how the 3D would enhance the experience. Honestly, it didn’t disappoint.
The story is just as eerie and captivating as ever. Coraline, the brave and curious protagonist, discovers a secret door that leads to an alternate world.
At first, everything in this “Other World” seems perfect—better parents, more fun—but things quickly take a darker turn.
The 3D effects added an extra layer of immersion, making it feel like I was right there with Coraline, exploring this strange and unsettling place.
What’s especially interesting about this edition is that it’s the first stop-motion film ever made in 3D.
The 3D effects aren’t just tacked on—they really enhance the movie.
For example, Coraline’s initial entry into the Other World feels even more magical and menacing with the added dimension.
I noticed new details, such as the texture of the characters, clothing and how the Other Mother’s button eyes seemed to follow me around. Even though I’ve seen the original countless times, watching it in 3D felt like a completely new experience.
It was like rediscovering the story all over again, and it made me appreciate the film even more.
The 3D didn’t change the story, but it added a fresh, exciting twist.
Whether you’re revisiting Coraline or seeing it for the first time, the 15th Anniversary 3D Edition is a great way to get into the Halloween spirit.
As the first stop-motion film in 3D, it offers a unique, immersive experience that breathes new life into this beloved movie.
