      Renee Schonfeld Common Sense Media Beautiful visuals, rewarding story of transcontinental train Rated: 4/5 Jul 19, 2016 Full Review Andrew L. Urban Urban Cinefile The combination of aerial photography with archival material provides plenty of texture not just eye candy, and the simplicity of the film allows the giant IMAX images to rule Feb 22, 2016 Full Review Linda Cook Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) 'Rocky Mountain Express' not only shows the Canadian Rockies in all their glory, but it also demonstrates what it's like to ride on The Empress, aka the Canadian Pacific 2816, a restored train from the 1930s. Rated: 4/4 Sep 28, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews

Are we running out of ideas for IMAX movie subjects? Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review guy m It's like train porn, deep incredible sound and stunning visuals get any railroad enthusiast all hot and bothered Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I think that this train movie is the best one ever! The CP 2816 is such a historical steam locomotive and one of my favourites. I hope the DVD and BLURAY for the movie comes out soon!!
