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

 worst 3D ever November 23, 2009

Love, Love, Love this movie, so I decided to buy the 3D version for my kids this year! This was the biggest waste of money ever!! The movie picture and color are distorted and the 3D is almost non-existent! I couldn't watch with the "glasses", it gave me a headache. After a while even my 4 and 6 year gave up on the glasses! They wanted to use the glasses they got when they saw Toy Story 3d, but unfortunately, they did not work!! DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS IN 3D!!!!!!!!

I love CHRISTmas stories. Light up CHRISTmas tree and put on a movie while wrapping presents.
This movie is great and all the family will enjoy.

Speaking about 3D portion only... I bought the standard 3D version of the movie... not the blue ray version. Within minutes we had to shut it off. The images are distorted. There are terrible shadows around the chraracters and objects. The glasses are made of paper, with red on the left eye, and blue on the right. The colors of the movie are distorted from the glasses. A complete waste of time and money. Tried this movie on two different televsions, and with two different DVD players.
Rip off.
