A good movie

I wasn't really planning to see this flick but since it was the end of the holiday for Nick (my step-son), we went one last time to the theater and chose this flick. Eventually, I thought it was a pretty good stop-motion feature but, to be honest, it was still missing something in my opinion. It figures that it was made by Laika, the studio which made 'Coraline' a few years back. I mean, both movies were visually really impressive and really amazing to watch but both movies also didn't really convince me as far as the story was concerned. Basically, it was just some kind of (better) version of ' The Sixth sense' but not much more than that, I'm afraid. I mean, it was entertaining enough but the whole thing about the weird kid being bullied by everbody but, at the end, manages to save the city from the zombies and becomes a hero, not only it was rather unoriginal and predictable, but this ending was also actually a stepdown after following the darker satiric tone they displayed before. It is like the curse of this witch, it was rather pedestrian in my opinion. Still, I liked this movie. Indeed, the characters were pretty awesome, it looked awesome and there were here and there some hilarious scenes. Anyway, to conclude, in spite of its flaws, I really enjoyed this movie and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
