Yeah!!
I've won two tickets for this movie! :D Hahax though its cartoon but i've been eyeing on it for quite long le. Hahax!
As the tale begins, Coraline and her parents move into an old Queen Anne style house that had been subdivided into four flats. Coraline's parents are always busy with their work and pay her little attention. Isolated, Coraline goes off to explore. She meets the other inhabitants of the house, Ms. Spink and Ms. Forcible, two elderly women retired from the stage, and an even older man, Mr. Bobo, who trains mice to play music. She also encounters a haughty black cat who has also seen the Other World.
Coraline finds a locked door in the drawing room, though the entrance beyond is bricked up. The next day she takes the key to the door, opens it, and finds a dark corridor leading to an apartment almost identical to her own. This alternate world is inhabited by her Other Mother and Other Father, who are near-replicas of her real parents, except they have buttons for eyes. She also sees the cat, who can speak there. These Other parents at first seem more interesting, fun and caring than her real parents. At the day's end, the Other Mother offers her a chance to stay in this world forever if Coraline will let her sew buttons over her eyes. Coraline is horrified and dashes back through the door to go home, much to the disappointment of the Other Mother.
Upon her return to her apartment, Coraline finds her real parents are missing. They do not return by the next day, and Coraline, discovering they were kidnapped by the Other Mother, resolves to rescue them. Coraline returns to the Other Mother's world with a seeing stone given to her by her neighbors.
The Other Mother becomes angry when Coraline refuses to accept gifts or love, and she imprisons Coraline behind a mirror as punishment. There she meets three children from different eras who let the Other Mother sew buttons in their eyes, then tossed them aside and devoured their lives when she wearied of them. Coraline falls asleep, and the Other Mother decides to take Coraline out of the room, which wakes her up. Coraline challenges the Other Mother in a game to find the children's souls and her parents within the Other world, using her wits and the seeing stone. Coraline finds the children's souls with the seeing-stone and finds her parents in a snowglobe. She throws the cat at the Other Mother, much to the dismay of the cat, and then escapes to the real world, forcing the door closed on the Other Mother and severing her hand. Back in her apartment, Coraline finds her parents safe and sound.
The next night, Coraline discovers that her task is still not done: the Other Mother's severed hand is still in Coraline's world. It attempts to steal the key so the Other Mother can win Coraline back. Coraline lures the hand to a well and tricks it into falling in with the key, ridding the world of the danger of the Other Mother forever
