Big Hype, Little Delivery

Rating: 3/10 (13 November 2004)

I saw the Polar Express last night on IMAX 3-D. I had high hopes for this movie. Unfortunately, the movie didn't deliver. I never connected or felt anything for the main character and the supporting characters were just annoying. The musical scenes in this movie made me want to dig my eyes out with an unsharpened pencil. The only saving grace to this movie was the ghost character. The plot was slow in the beginning and felt rushed in the end. The only people I could imagine enjoying this movie are the under 7 crowd. Don't waste your money or time. I wish I didn't.
If you want good animation, see the Incredibles.
