Encounter in the Third Dimension Audience Reviews

Unlimitedia Sick Product of a Sick System
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Megamind To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.
Nayan Gough A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Boggman "Encounter in the third dimension" contains a pretty neat concept......Let's film a 3-D documentary IN 3D about the history of 3D and 3D movies, throw in some clips of classic 3D movies and mix them with the latest and greatest in computer animated 3D virtual reality! AWESOME!The movie has some great old footage, and is very informative while being consistently entertaining. A nice job all the way through- even though Elvira is grossly underused!! I can not wait to see what else NWAVE pictures has up their sleeve. They are definitely on the cutting edge of 3D home entertainment. I have yet to see anything that rivals "Encounter", "Alien Adventure" or "Haunted Castle" on the 3D market!Very well done! Do not watch this in 2D, however; highly recommended for 3D lovers!!!
filuk_02 I saw this at Alton Towers in the 3D cinema.There were a few good moments in the film, but mostly i thought it was quite bad. In the whole film i think there was 5 moments of proper 3D image.The only good thing about this film was the apperance of Elvira, she was in all her 3D glory.If your a fan of Elvira you will like the film, if your a fan of 3D films you will not like it.For 3D images i give it 2/10 For Elvira i give it 9/10
jomax So who cares if the plot's sketchy and repetitive, and the dialogue childish? It's the spectacle here that counts. And it really works; the superbly detailed CG chamber where the action takes place, the lighting and textures are lovely and highly detailed and the animation is excellent - especially during the phenomenal roller-coaster ride to the centre of the earth simulator sequence. On the downside, there is a lot of strobing on some fast moving scenes (lack of motion blur), and not all of the elements hold together (but these are minor complaints). Topped of with a suitably wacky number from Elvira, it's easy going fun with 3-D that benefits from the visually all-encompassing IMAX format.
marky-28 This was the first 3D IMAX film I have seen, and I must say I was quite impressed. Not only were the 3D effects spectacular, but the film was quite enjoyable as well.The roller coaster rides and underwater scenes were quite fun (it really feels like you are there!). The film itself was documentary style, but written in such a way that all ages will find it enjoyable. If it's still playing near you, it's worth seeing.
