The Polar Express



“Sometimes the most real things in the world, are the things we can’t see…”

In the spirit of Christmas, here’s a lovely, heart-warming, animated, adventure film fit for the whole family. This is one to add to your in-home collection. Based on the novel by Chris Van Allsburg and adapted into screenplay by Robert Zemeckis and William Broyles Jr. and directed by Robert Zemeckis, even though they didn’t make back half of what they spent in production, they were nominated for 3 Oscars.

I will admit it wasn’t the most alluring special effects but it was a perfect story! Tom Hanks shone as multiple voices throughout and Leslie Zemeckis, Eddie Deezen, and Nona Gaye also joined in to paint this wonderful story of self-discovery. Your dreams never fade away and always take life when you believe! 

This fantasy film will open your eyes and your heart; it will make you laugh out loud and shed a tear or two. It reminds us that doubt leads us nowhere and that life takes flight when you are ready for the adventure!
