Yesterday to deal with the heat a friend of mine wanted to take his family to the theaters. He asked me what was out for kids. I had to ponder that for a few minutes and I said, Brave and Madagascar 3 and something 
called the Olgolvies or something like that. Not much to choose from considering he’s seen Brave and the other one just seems weird. So I’m really excited that new children’s movies are on their way starting with ParaNorman which is now in theaters. ParaNorman is a new stop-motion comedy thriller in 3D that looks great for kids that like things that are unusual and different and zombies of course.
About the Film
The new 3D stop-motion comedy thriller from animation company LAIKA, reteaming the company with Focus Features after the groundbreaking Academy Award-nominated Coraline. ParaNorman is, following Coraline, the company’s second stop-motion animated feature to be made in 3D.
In ParaNorman, a small town comes under siege by zombies. Who can it call? Only misunderstood local boy Norman (Kodi Smit-McPhee), who is able to speak with the dead. In addition to the zombies, he’ll have to take on ghosts, witches and, worst, of all, grown-ups, to save his town from a centuries-old curse. But this young ghoul whisperer may find his paranormal activities pushed to their otherworldly limits.
Starring
Kodi Smit-McPhee, Casey Affleck, Anna Kendrick, John Goodman, Leslie Mann, Jeff Garlin, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Elaine Strich, Tempestt Bledsoe, Bernard Hill, Alex Borstein, Tucker Albrizzi
Directed By Sam Fell and Chris Butler
Written By Chris Butler
Screenplay By Chris Butler
Produced By Arianne Sutner and Travis Knight
Rated PG

I’ve already seen the movie three times and it was amazing. I loved the edgy style and the stop motion animation. Animation in general is a big part of my life, so seeing a movie execute it so flawlessly was magic. I couldn’t keep my eyes off the screen! I was immersed…
I’m seeing it again this coming Monday!
It looks like a really cute movie. My son has been seeing the previews and wants t osee it

My oldest wants to see this. My youngest is not so sure. I will let my oldest watch it first and get her review about it.
I think it looks like a great movie………my daughter and husband went to see it today, I had to stay out with my son who was scared to see it. But they said it wasn’t scary and they liked it. I appreciate that its something new and different than the same old thing kids are used to.

It reminds me of nightmare before christmas so I think i would love it.
Haven’t watched it yet but I definatly will

We watched it in 3D last Friday and I absolutly loved it! I’m a huge fan of stop animation and the “darker cartoons” and I will see it again, but I wouldn’t really suggest any young children going to see it due to the loudness and sudden surprises.
The movie was a little scary in some parts for my 5 year old, but other than that, the whole family loved it and would see it again!
i think it is a cute movie
Looks like a good movie to take the kids to get them into the ‘fall’ spirit…. Perfect for halloween

It looks like it wouldn’t be boring and would hold my daughter’s interest.
We loved it.
It was good…they could have done away with a few cuss words (noticed it at two areas) and they whole “boyfriend” thing at the end …other then that, it was alright. 🙂
I loved it, and my child that watched it with me loved it too. A little scary in some spots though, for a 5 year old.
