    Based on the classic Caldecott medal-winning children's book by Chris Van Allsburg, this feature-length film reunites the Academy Award-winning team of Tom Hanks and director Robert Zemeckis (Cast Away, Forrest Gump). State-of-the-art computer-generated animation and 'performance capture' technology create a unique blend of realism and fantasy, allowing the actors' live-action performances to drive the emotions and movements of the digital characters. The Polar Express: An IMAX 3D Experience tells the story of a doubting young boy who takes an extraordinary train ride to the North Pole and embarks on a journey of self-discovery. In IMAX 3D, snow flurries seem to whirl around movie-goers' heads, and the chugging of the train's engine resonates through 44 different speakers mounted throughout the theater for a full surround-sound effect.
