Tron - Legacy: a Non Review.

I can't review this because though I went to see it with Hilary this afternoon  we walked out well before the end because the 3D was horrible (blurry and eye-achingly zippy), the plot was almost non-existent seeming to consist of lots of samey-gamey chases, the treatment on some of the voices was so awful we couldn't make out the words (the whole thing was too loud which didn't help the sound distortion), and - frankly - it was really, really, REALLY boring.

And we don't walk our of movies easily when we've paid good money. (This from the women who even sat through Dragonballs and Clone Wars right to the end!)

And to add insult to injury:
a) it seems to be ONLY available in 3D (I would always see 2Din preference) and
b) the Cineworld cinema charges more for 3-D and
c) we were charged an extra £1.50 for using an Orange Wednesday twofer because it was 3D

That's the last 3D movie I go to see at Cineworld.... Evah!

I'm also against 3D

I'm just mildly PO'd with James Cameron for developing 3D to the point where it can enrich SOME movie experiences. Now, everybody gets to make an insane profit on a technology that still isn't far enough along to be more than a gimmick.

We'll know when the technology is far enough along by the complete lack of goofy glasses, and an inability to perceive a screen against which the film is showing.

Speaking as one who, while impressed by the effects in Avatar was also annoyed by the limitations of the current 3D system, mainly by the fact that only parts are in focus, the sooner this craze for 3D (not the first) goes away the better. Of course, the fact the script was crap didn't help...
