"That black cat? Definitely has nine lives. I’ve used up three just watching this." – Angel

Dear readers (and fellow feline film critics),

I curled up on the couch (as all sophisticated cats do) and joined the humans for a creepy little adventure. This time, I watched Coraline, and let’s just say — I kept my eyes on the screen and my tail on high alert.

First Impressions: The visuals are stunning, the mood is spooky, and the black cat? Mysterious, witty, and way cooler than the human boy with the slingshot.

What I Loved:
• The black cat with serious main character energy 🐈‍⬛
• That haunting other-world button eye aesthetic
• The eerie vibe without being too scary for a movie night cuddle

Did You Know?
Coraline was the first stop-motion animated feature to be shot entirely in 3D — a purr-fect fit for its surreal storytelling.

Who Will Love This Movie?
Fans of spooky animation, Tim Burton-style vibes, clever cats, or anyone who’s ever wondered what’s behind that one strange door in the house...

Angel’s Rating:
Purr-fect
