For Children and Christmas Lovers Only

Rating: 5/10 (4 December 2005)

A young boy is losing his faith on Santa Claus. On Christmas Eve, he boards a magical train to the North Pole with other children and has a magical adventure in the land of Santa Claus.
I was quite anxious to see "The Polar Express", which was nominated for three Oscars, and has another three wins and twelve nominations. The animation is really very beautiful, but although being a fan of animations and cartoons, I found the infantile story highly indicated for children and Christmas lovers only. I myself was very bored after 60 minutes running time. My vote is five.
Title (Brazil): "O Expresso Polar" ("The Polar Express")
