A decent Christmas based story. I enjoyed the fantasy aspects of it, but not much else.

Not true to the spirit of the book. Often creepy, often over the top. And peril! One dilemma after another! But in the end, Condoleeza and the whole ride was just a dream...or was it??? Lame.

The animation in this film is vivid and beautiful and, though the story itself doesn't deviate much from traditional holiday fare, it is still appropriately touching and magical.

I loved the book as a kid. And, the movie is just as good.

This is now one of my favorite holiday films. Tom Hanks does many of the voices in this film. Of the characters he portrays, they all look like him in some fashion...even Santa Claus. The music to this film is also great. It would be fun to get served hot chocolate in style.

Sorry folks, but picture books just do not translate well into full-length feature films.
