On Christmas Eve, a skeptical boy boards the Polar Express to the North Pole, joined by new friends. They encounter adventures and challenges before meeting Santa. The boy, chosen to receive the first gift, loses a bell, but Santa returns it. Despite disbelief from others, the bell still rings for those who believe. 

The Polar Express may be considered a classic for those born in the 90s, however, there are many more animated films that were released much earlier than 2004. Still, this film featuring Tom Hanks is a magical winter movie to watch!
