ParaNorman
So... This is the one of the few animated movies that I like which was not directed by Tim Burton. This is a good Halloween "sleepover" film for Tweens, like me. I suggest that you watch this with switched off lights, a bowl of caramel popcorn and a the air con on high speed.
This is about a boy named Norman and his adventure to save his town from the evil clutches of a little girl. This girl was a victim of the Salem Witch Trial and she avenges her death through casting spells that cause chaos. Norman tries to do everything to save her, even talking to zombies, but nothing seem to solve the problem. His last resort was to reason with this kid and it was effective.
From this movie, I learned that most teenagers are isolated from their family because they experience certain things that adults could not explain. Like Norman, we tend to be left out of family stuff because we are in the process of changing. There are feelings that we do not know how to express through words but only through actions. Our parents would tells us that they had been through that but, sometimes, I think they've forgotten how it feels. How it feels to fangirl, to stress on unimportant things and to worry about nonexistent creatures. In my opinion, what we really need are our friends and a little bit of understanding from our families.
