I was not disappointed, the film is very well done, the stop-motion animation is indeed a work of art, the scrip is clever and thoughtful and, this being a "scary" film, there are some truly, truly scary sequences in this wonderful production. I watched this film with a 9-year old on a Halloween night and this proved to be an excellent choice - the kid was scared! Truly scared, but also entertained, we both laughed (he laughed much more, I have to admit), but the film proved to be enjoyable and thought-provoking, with an array of weird and wonderful characters and a few twists in a story. Seriously, not often I come across films for children that are so enjoyed by children but also are entertaining for adults. The message is also a good one, most of all "Paranorman" teaches children (and young adults) about open-mindedness and acceptance and how to be tolerable to one another. This film has countless topics that I, as an adult, thought were very well-addressed, such as personal relationships, family and friends, and courage and keeping one's promises. PLUS, the voice-overs were excellent! Four and a half to five stars. Oh, how I wish I saw this in 3D! Review: fantastic - Both me and my daughter loved this movie. It is very funny with a great story line. Could be a little scary for young children but the comedy element evens it out. Very similar to Coraline, I think it was made by the same creaters. Perfect for Halloween. Be aware this is a Region 1 copy that can only be played on Multi region players but Region 2 copies are now available. ## Features - COMEDY - Run Time: 93 - Release Date: 5/6/2014 - PG - CASEY AFFLECK CHRISTOPHER MINTZ-PLASSE ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Format | NTSC | | Genre | comedy | | Language | English | | Runtime | 1 hour and 33 minutes | | Studio | Universal Studios | ## Product Details - **Format:** NTSC - **Genre:** comedy - **Language:** English - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 33 minutes ## Images ![Paranorman [DVD] [2012] [Region 1] [US Import] [NTSC] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91lqLh3dZ+L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A wonderful and entertaining stop-motion film. *by L***A on 4 November 2013* I admit, I only looked into "Paranorman" as I absolutely loved Coraline (Blu-ray 3D) [2009] [Region Free ] with its the crafty and wonderful stop-motion animation (and which I thoroughly recommend!).

Brilliant bit of entertainment for the whole family. ## Frequently Bought Together - PARANORMAN DVD - Coraline - Monster House (Widescreen Edition) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.jp/products/662582308-paranorman-dvd-2012-region-1-us-import-ntsc](https://www.desertcart.jp/products/662582308-paranorman-dvd-2012-region-1-us-import-ntsc) --- *Product available on Desertcart Japan* *Store origin: JP* *Last updated: 2026-07-13*
