Moviegoers are saying
This Laika animation studio production has audiences debating whether it's a queer allegory or just a spooky masterpiece, with viewers torn between calling it an iconic animated gem and wishing it were an 80s live-action cult classic. The film sparks passionate discussions about representation while delivering genuine scares and memorable one-liners like 'Don't make me throw this hummus... it's spicy!'

I still don’t understand how more people haven’t seen this movie. If you love Coraline, you’ll LOVE ParaNorman, I could even argue that ParaNorman is better even though Coraline seems to get more attention-which I feel is unfair. 15/10 recommend.
sam lovedParaNormanI LOVE this movie, as I do most stop motions. The humor is the best part, along with character design and other things similar. The ONLY thing I'd note is that it feels a littleee slow on rewatch, but honestly I didn’t even notice first watch. i still ADORE this!
Emily White likedParaNorman7/10. as halloween movies go, this one is excellent. I cannot believe it took me 23 years to watch it. Don’t sleep on this !

5/5 I love this movie so much and I rewatched it in theaters. A masterpiece it’s so funny throughout the whole movie the animation is perfect and what Norman says at the end is so hard hitting and so sweet
Tyne lovedParaNormanThe way people love coraline is the way I love paranorman like I truly believe people don’t love this movie as much as me That scene when it flashes back to the trial kills me everytime
hellfire club lovedParaNormanNorman and Neil are two of the cutest most lovable characters I have ever known. I adore them so much, and the colors in this movie feel like I’m walking on my inhalers puff.

ParaNorman is supposedly for kids, but it's really aimed at their snarky older brothers, and it illustrates the limits of the new family creepshows.

As creepy as it is fun, and it's plenty of both, ParaNorman will delight fans of old-time horror movies.
