IMAX 3D: The Polar Express (U)

About

A young boy embarks on a magical adventure to the North Pole aboard the Polar Express. Experience it on the region’s most immersive screen – Bradford's IMAX.

Late on Christmas Eve, a boy sits in bed doubting the existence of Santa Claus and waiting to hear the sound of sleigh bells. Instead, a magical steam engine roars outside his window and he begins an extraordinary journey towards the North Pole and beyond his imagination.

Based on the beloved children’s book by Chris Van Allsburg and combining the talents of Tom Hanks and director Robert Zemeckis (Forrest GumpCast Away), The Polar Express is the definition of a magical Christmas experience – especially in magical IMAX and 3D.

  • DIRECTOR: Robert Zemeckis
  • CAST: Tom Hanks, Nona Gaye, Eddie Deezen, Leslie Zemeckis, Peter Scolari
  • LANGUAGE: English
