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

 A hit with the kids and adults too! January 8, 2009
All the kids in our family call this the "choo choo" movie. They were sad to see it go after Christmas. I found this for a steal on here!
Polar Express 3D January 6, 2009
First time I ever saw this movie was 3D at an Imax Theater. Can't beat watching it in 3D. One of my favorite Christmas mvies.
The Polar Express January 6, 2009
Product was in 100% good condition, arrived timely. Awesome movie, a must see for all - young and old.
 3-d version not worth the money January 6, 2009
Save your money and buy the 2d version of the polar express. The 3-d version is blurry and doesn't compare to the imax 3-d version.
Really Need a Big Screen TV January 6, 2009
Thought the movie was great in 3D and you can see it on a regular TV but, if you have a big screen TV, it would be so much better. It works on regular, don't get me wrong, but my son sits pretty close to the TV to really get the effect.
