Movie review 1##

Title of book: The Polar Express

Summary of the movie:
If I remember correctly, this story is about a small boy whom does not believe in Christmas woke up in Christmas Eve to find that he has been invited to ride in The Polar Express to the North Pole! During the ride to North Pole, the boy must overcome his belief of Christmas so as to save Christmas (which is always a must for Christmas shows…) and seek become the Chosen one who will receive a great gift from Santa himself! I think he got a bell that can only be heard by those that truly believe in Santa and in the end after he had grown up into an adult, he will slowly realize that people around him will slowly forget about Christmas.

Reflection:
This movie is one of the few Christmas shows that truly hit a spot in my heart. (The first one that hit it was a Christmas show by Looney tunes!) .The dwarfs singing Christmas songs near the end of the movie where quite funny and nice and Santa still shows up as a plumb old guy in red suit to deliver his presents to GOOD children all over the world! So even though this movie had already been screened years ago, if you really one to watch it again, there will be one on channel 5 at around 7.30pm.
