What a magical ride! (Possible SPOILER)

Rating: 10/10 (11 November 2004)

The Polar Express is a unique film that other animated features have yet to match. The musical score made this film all the more magical. I'm 21 years old and have admired Tom Hanks all my life. The five different parts that he plays are unforgettable and the song "Hot Chocolate" that he sings is probably my favorite scenes because it has Tom's voice and dancing waiters. Watching the movie and the whole ghost aspect to the film made it appear nearly real to the boy,even though it really was a dream,or at least one of those dreams that come true. This movie is appropriate for kids and adults both because the messages at the end of the film constitute what we all could do to be better people in this world. I wish I had my own ticket to the North Pole so I could believe again. This is probably one of the best Christmas movies I've ever seen. ****FOUR STARS****
