Avatar (IMAX)

Hi,

With the bad weather conditions the cinema trips are on hold at the moment, hopefully I will get to see Sherlock Holmes again tomorrow, with my eldest. But before the bad weather broke I managed to see Avatar at the IMAX.

Overall I was a little disappointed with it, it was too big, the majority of the screen was blurred apart from the area of screen I was focused on. This did spoil it for me.
The sound is amazing, though, the explosions rocked my insides - brilliant!

I did get vertigo a couple of times though, in the dragon scenes and when they climbed some of the trees really got a sense of height....

I did enjoy it again, and I still feel I could see it again soon, but on the normal 3D screen.

I thought it would do well with the box-office figures, but it's cruised past the Billion with no problem. Amazing!

  1. Well you already know what I think of this film. The IMAX experience was good but I prefer the 3d version in standard cinemas. The screen was just too big for the 3D experience. You couldn't take in the whole picture because of the size so it blurred the image on your peripheral vision from timne to time. But the film was still mind blowing.
