His parents think he’s a bit bonkers, but “Norman” swears that he can communicate with his deceased grandmother (especially when she wants the central heating turned up!). When his uncle tells him that his unique skills might help with a ritual that could spare their sleepy town from a curse, he agrees to help – but oops! Next thing, the place is awash with zombies and it falls to “Norman” to figure out just what originally caused the curse and to find a way – together with his popular sister and his new found, and rather unlikely, friends – to annul it before it is too late! This is a fun family adventure with some strong characterisations (including the really enthusiastic voice talent of Kodi Smit-McPhee in the title role) and some superbly detailed stop motion animation. The writing is frequently quite pithy with plenty for the grown ups to smile at, and think about, as the story progresses. Though hardly original – the story itself has everything from “Salem’s Lot” (1979) to “Hocus Pocus” (1993) running through it – it’s still an enjoyable watch that lends itself well to a big screen to better appreciate the colourful vivacity of the creative artistry and lively Jon Brian score. Sure, their heads are bigger than the rest of their bodes combined, but the facial expressions are what makes this and I rather liked this film.
Review By: CinemaSerf

Really good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

This is surprisingly dark, and underrated. While the animated characters are almost grosteque in their stylization, it serves fairly well when it comes to the undead. It also pushes the boundaries of it being a “kid’s” movie or an “adult’s” movie in it’s content. So this is probably a movie for “older younger” audiences.

Not only is this a great concept, effect execution, and story, the characters that do pop, really do. I honestly could have done without a few of them, but most of the important characters work for what they need to do.

There is a much appreciated “twist” that examples some self-aware story telling that comes with the tropes typically involved with “I see dead people” stories. Its really rather refreshing without removing the idea that burning witches at the stake was an atrocity in history.

The story is touching and charming and just requires an open mind, which is part of the message of the story.

A lot of fun, but probably not for the young ones
The thing of it is, ParaNorman is pretty scary stuff for a PG movie, so you’ve been properly warned. This isn’t some over-sanitized Disney movie. Everything from the lighting to the characters to the tense plot adds up to something you wouldn’t want your six-year-old to drag you to, unless you don’t mind paying for some therapy. But it’s a terrific movie, with a style all its own and a madcap sense of ghoulish delight.

Norman (voice of Kodi Smith-McPhee) is an outcast. Know why? He talks to dead people. And indeed, we see them as well, chatting with our hero along his walk to school. Oh, and his grandmother (voice of Elaine Stritch) talks to him all the time while sitting on the couch in the living room. No one understands poor Norman, who’s as resignedly freaked out as Haley Joel Osment in the Sixth Sense, so he has no one to talk to, not his parents (Jeff Garlin and Leslie Mann), not his sister (Anna Kendrick), and not the school bully (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) for sure.

It’s only when Norman has an episode during the production of a school play (not coincidentally, about an old legend surrounding the town’s dark past) that he gains a friend – another outcast, the portly Neil (Tucker Albrizzi), who teaches Norman that it’s best not to let people bother you, to not let them get under your skin. Had the story ended there, we may have had a nice, tidy after-school special. Oh, but it does not! From out of almost nowhere, Norman’s black-sheep uncle, Mr. Prenderghast (John Goodman), a heavily bearded, slightly loony chap, informs Norman that he – Norman! – must take the mantle of He Who Holds Off the Witch’s Curse. Mr. P. has been doing it for all these years, but he thinks he’s about to go. He warns Norman that it’s all up to him and he must read from the book and then he dies. That was an intentional run-on sentence, for your pleasure.

Thereby our plot is set in motion! Norman must extricate said book from the dead uncle and then read it by the witch’s grave in order to break the curse that no one really believes is real. They don’t believe it on account of Mr. Dead Uncle has been reading from the book for his entire life, and someone before him, and so on. But now Dead Uncle is, you know, demised, and just before the witch is to rise from the ashes and wreak havoc! Oh, I should note that the curse goes like this – a little girl was suspected of witchcraft by the town elders and sentenced to death. So you can see why she might want to haunt those elders and the town itself for all eternity.

There are people raised from the dead, and the imagery is quite striking; bones, stringy hair, rent clothing, and the ability to remove an appendage and reattach it. Are these – uh – zombies – out to lay waste to the town? Or are they victims of their own device? It’s up to Norman, his brain, and his innate ability to talk to dead people to somehow save the day. Despite being grounded, of course.

ParaNorman works on many levels. Adults will love the stylish, almost Gothic atmosphere; older teens will love the menace of both the zombies and the townspeople, not to mention the witch herself. There are, for an animated film, plenty of scares and dark themes – slightly offset by the themes of loneliness, friendship, heroism, and getting adults to just listen to you. For once! Ahem. Anyway, there’s a sort of beauty in ParaNorman, as horror and light comedy are somehow blended to form a rich animated film.

An incredibly underrated and sweet little film about accepting change and differences
A nostalgic and incredibly sweet little stop motion comedy- Paranorman is a brilliant little Halloween film for kids and easily some of the best work Lakia has ever done. I love stop motion animation with a passion, which is why most people don’t understand why I hate the film Coraline. It’s messy mixed messages and overall bland art style make it a pain to watch at times, and I struggled to go in open minded to this film knowing it was made by the same company. When I first saw this film I was only 9 years old, and it is one of the reasons I accredit my start and fascination of horror throughout my life. Paranorman is brilliantly told, a well written and quirky little story about someone people didn’t understand- and never before had a film resonated with me on such a personal level. The voice work is tremendously done, and I absolutely adore the designs of all the characters- as well as the town, set pieces, and even the films score. It has some dull moments towards the middle, or even just a bit tedious or predictable, but Paranorman managed to make me laugh and cry a lot- and its sweet message combined with its witty screenplay are more than enough to have it take a special place in my heart- as well as my childhood. In the end, Paranorman always manages to be better than I expected- and I won’t go without watching it for many future Halloweens as long as I can.

My Rating: 9.4/10.
