    Absolutely. It made it a real movie for me. It made the "Wizard of Oz" something as an adult, I can still remember as having real substance. I think things like "Snow White"-- the original Disney one-- had some wonderfully cool scary [moments.]

Her interactions with Helena’s mum (Gina McKee) are utterly sweet and heartwarming. I loved their hospital scene together as well as their shared dream in the fantasy world. McKee also played a great authoritarian ...

    Mirrormask’s incidental music is the greatest of any film in my opinion. The opening theme was brilliant and really put you in another world. I really liked the use of horns when Helena was walking around her grandmother’s flat in the dark. Likewise, the Labyrinth-esque theme when Helena and Valentine flew on the books was so beautiful and freewhee...

    Mirrormask’s CGI is the best I have ever seen. It was introduced brilliantly by having a couple of musicians be transformed into 2D drawings, causing Helena and Valentine to flee. The effects of Light City are beautiful and put me strongly in mind of the Neverending Story. The library’s rendition was also excellent, as were the effects of the orbit...

    Mirrormask is a phenomenal film. It combines a classic fairytale/adventure story with real world issues in an utterly seamless way. Although the CGI can make it somewhat difficult to follow exactly what is happening at times. This is a wildly entertaining movie with a real emotional core at its centre. Watch this.
