Open Season (3D)
We went to see Open Season in 3D at the Printworks IMAX cinema last night. It was deserted! There was only about 6 people in the whole gigantic auditorium. Luckily this meant we got to sit in the best seats in the house (in the middle right at the back). Normally IMAX films make me feel really queasy but this was great and the 3D really added to the animation. Open Season’s story is pretty formulaic but it’s still really good fun with loveable characters and some tugging of the heart-string moments amid the laughs. Boog the Bear has definitely got jive.
I was worried that the 3D glasses would be uncomfortable over my own glasses, but that really wasn’t a problem. The screen completely fills your view immersing you in the movie. And the seats are comfy with plenty of legroom. I have to confess I really enjoyed it and definitely want to go again, soon. I can’t believe we don’t go more often - it’s only 50p more than the regular cinema and the experience is much BIGGER.
