Product Description

Destined to become a holiday perennial, The Polar Express also heralded a brave new world of all-digital filmmaking. Critics and audiences were divided between those who hailed it as an instant classic that captures the visual splendor and evocative innocence of Chris Van Allsburg's popular children's book, and those who felt that the innovative use of "performance capture"--to accurately translate live performances into all-digital characters--was an eerie and not-quite-lifelike distraction from the story's epic-scale North Pole adventure. In any case it's a benign, kind-hearted celebration of the yuletide spirit, especially for kids who have almost grown out of their need to believe in Santa Claus. Tom Hanks is the nominal "star" who performs five different computer-generated characters, but it's the visuals that steal this show, as director Robert Zemeckis indulges his tireless pursuit of technological innovation. No matter how you respond to the many wonders on display, it's clear that The Polar Express represents a significant milestone in the digital revolution of cinema. If it also fills you with the joy of Christmas (in spite of its Nuremberg-like rally of frantic elves), so much the better. --Jeff Shannon The World of The Polar Express

 AWESOME for the whole family! January 9, 2009
Meredith Wilken
We have watched this movie over and over and over again. My 3-year old and 1-year old both sit through the whole movie with wide eyes and smiles. My 3-year old sings along with the songs and the little one is just amazed at the images. They will sit through it twice in a row! A must-have family movie that you can watch all year round.
Nice Christmas Story and good Blu-Ray Movie January 9, 2009
John Maclachlan (White Lake, MI)
My wife got this movie for the kids on Blu-Ray since we were looking for a good Christmas Story for the kids. I hadn't seen Polar Express before, but most everyone I spoke to loved the movie. So, in short, I liked the story. It was good, but in my opinion, it could have been a little better. Maybe it is all because so many people talked up this movie, my expectations were too high. Either way, the kids loved the movie and ask to watch it just about every day. Mission accomplished!
The Blu-Ray version is excellent. Picture is great and the sound is awesome too.
