The way ahead for the next decade...

My first ever review on IMDb...
The Odeon booklet describes this movie as a "tent-pole" pioneer in the 3D format used. Some screens at the multiplex were showing this movie in 2D and as far as I could determine the 3D ticket price was the same (3D specs included in price)! Why would anybody want to see this movie in 2D??
Being a die-hard trekkie, I knew I'd enjoy this movie and it didn't disappoint in any area. My last experience of 3D was those multi-coloured cardboard thingies from the 80's that never really set the scene alight. This was altogether something different with solid framed specs framing an absolutely perfect 3D experience. Sure, I'd rather the recent Star Trek movie had been my first 3D Real D experience... next time.
The movie? Go see it. Don't d/l an AVI or even wait for the DVD/BluRay. This is groundbreaking cinematography and you have to be part of the pioneering corps of viewers!
