Summary: Do not buy the 3-D version.
Comment: I own this movie in 3 versions: HD-DVD, DVD, and now the 3-D DVD. That is how much my family enjoys the Polar Express. The 3-D effects on this are UNWATCHABLE, double vision, bad color, etc. It literaly gave me a headache. I tried to watch it on 5 different dvd players and 3 diff. TVs and no change. I am very disapointed and wish I could return it. Get the regular DVD or BluRay (or even HD-DVD if you still have a player) instead.

Summary: 3-D Not so Hot
Comment: The package comes with two disks, a regular widescreen version and the 3-D version. The widescreen version worked very well and was enjoyable. When viewing the 3-D version on a 46 inch HD TV it was very difficult to see from a distance of 9 feet. When moving out of the room and at a distance of about 20 feet it became easier to view and looked correct, altho very dim. Unless you have this kind of space to work with, I wouldn't recommend the product.

Summary: Excellent movie, but 3D effect needs to be improved upon.
Comment: If you have never seen Polar Express in 3-D at an IMAX screen, you will probably enjoy the blu-ray 3-D version. But if you have seen the IMAX 3-D version, then you will be disappointed in the blu-ray version as the technology for the 3-D effect is not nearly as well developed. At times, you just see 2 separate pictures through each eye that do not blend together for a 3-D effect. Don't get me wrong, this is NOT a terrible 3-D version. It just does not come close to the IMAX 3-D version.

Summary: AWESOME for the whole family!
Comment: We have watched this movie over and over and over again. My 3-year old and 1-year old both sit through the whole movie with wide eyes and smiles. My 3-year old sings along with the songs and the little one is just amazed at the images. They will sit through it twice in a row! A must-have family movie that you can watch all year round.

Summary: Nice Christmas Story and good Blu-Ray Movie
Comment: My wife got this movie for the kids on Blu-Ray since we were looking for a good Christmas Story for the kids. I hadn't seen Polar Express before, but most everyone I spoke to loved the movie. So, in short, I liked the story. It was good, but in my opinion, it could have been a little better. Maybe it is all because so many people talked up this movie, my expectations were too high. Either way, the kids loved the movie and ask to watch it just about every day. Mission accomplished!
The Blu-Ray version is excellent. Picture is great and the sound is awesome too.
