📝 Description
Polar Express is a 2004 American computer-animated fantasy film directed by Robert Zemeckis. Based on the 1985 children's book of the same name by Chris Van Allsburg, the film tells the story of a young boy who embarks on a magical train journey to the North Pole on Christmas Eve. It was one of the first films to extensively use performance capture technology to create realistic human characters, which some viewers found unsettling due to the 'uncanny valley' effect.
