Surround Sound

Rating: 10/10 (30 May 2006)

This is the greatest of all Christmas feeling movies to date, it even appeals to the older age because this movie is apart of you, it's magical, mystical and breathtaking at the same time, CGI animation has gone amazing leaps from Tron since I was born.
When I bought this on the DVD release I had to play it with the lights off, surround sound on with my crystal clear flat screen TV with the sound high and the sub-woofer at max and bass highish not too high as it spoils the songs, but doing so makes you feel the movie is real, it brings you closer to the magic that is Christmas, I must say Christmas became a thing of the past for me, one day I just felt that one day isn't worth looking forward to because life's too short, you could be dead before you get to Christmas, this movie, makes you a kid again makes you wish for Christmas.
I have not one bad word against this film even if I didn't love this movie I'm sure I couldn't fault it. The most amazing CGI is with the Driver and the engineer, in there scenes of hilarity Dreamworks CGI took their time in making sure that this was perfect and it was.
Tom Hanks you can't beat him nowadays, he's made it to an all time great actor, you know that Tom Hanks is almost every voice in this film (over exaggerated) 10/10 great voice work from the old chap.
Personally I doubt a more sense of spirit, magic and feeling of Christmas in a film will occur anytime in the next decade, well done!
