You can always go ahead and try it out.

That's where I differ. I love how it feels. That's why I never minded on the 48fps. But I do admit that I had some sort of eye strain and wanted to relax so i took them off to compare how the depth was.

It's what I would think is a way to go forward. But not necessarily THE way. Getting accustomed to it will be the real issue.

9.45PM. HFR 3D + Atmos.

I am so excited for the Dolby Audio Demo now.

1Utama.

if you need to buy it, buy it soon. 9.45PM is filling up (thursday). But 6.30PM is.... FRIGGING EMPTY.

In case you can't find it, you have to a bit lower in the movie selection, as it starts with 3D HFR Atmos, in that order. It's easier if you just choose By Cinema and go to 1 Utama. A lot more easier even.

Reviews are ok so far as an action movie. but it all depends on how fast and fluid it is. I have seen action sequences that are too fast, that makes everything look like a blur. So it's not worth the time for it to be in 3D. For example, action scenes in Captain America were so much of a blur, that it made it less engaging.

But oddly, it's hailed as a great action movie. Haha.

That's odd. Last year it was happily HFR at TGV 1U.

Owh. Didn't notice the IMAX there.

I guess we will know this Thursday though.

Yeah. I honestly can't remember when was the last time I watched a 3D movie at GSC. Honest.

9.45pm baby! It can't come sooner! hahaha

Yay! I'm in for a ride tonight!

You watched it already right dude?

Owh crap. Now I have pressure on me.

I think the 6.45PM slot is about to begin. Then again, the 2D version is underway now. So lets hope there's someone here who can help us with an earlier Atmos review.

There is however, 1 thing that bothers me. It's a fantasy movie. what if certain sounds, are just meant to be downplayed? How would I know on that one?

But I'll let you know if I end up looking behind me if there's coming from there. That's what I'm looking forward to.

Hey! Secret Life of Walter Mitty is going to be fun! (I hope )

Lets get somethings out of the way.

The movie was slightly uneven. There were great parts (The river scene, the exchange between Bilbo and Smaug) and then there were very hammy cheesy ones. The weakest link however, proved to be Thorin himself. He's not the wise nor fearless leader that we all knew from the first movie. he's a little more conflicted this time around. And I hate to say this, but suddenly looking out of place.

Ah the Atmos Experience.

You know what's funny? I thought I was greeted with the Dolby Atmos demo, but NO. It had to be... THE THX DEMO. Which I thought was very awkward and funny.

And then came the demo.

For the first time, I can hear sounds above me. The audio demo was fantastic. A simple setting in the jungles, and the sounds of birds chirping (ABOVE ME. ABOVE ME), the winds brushing around, the whole experience is no doubt a lovely one.

But when it came to the use of the movies, some scenes stand out more than the rest. The beginning rain scene, the river scene (again) the Mirkwood forest scene, those were the true standouts. But I think I love the dialogue scenes a whole lot more. Whispers are a little closer to lifelikeness, while echoes in the halls of Erebor were a soft delight.

Don't worry about the money. If you have the chance, go Atmos.

As for HFR 3D, still stunning, and the river scene wins entirely. ENTIRELY.

Although, I have to say, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but did I just notice 2 frame rate dips in the movie? Because, i'm pretty sure I did. (The one wear Orcs was running along the river and another one closer to the end)

You know what?

The price for 2D Atmos at One Utama is RM 14. But the 2D (Only) at MidValley is RM 15.

btw, which row bro?

The 3D version is common. it's another RM5 extra surcharge anywhere even. (maybe minus TGV with their 3D-X glasses.)

So I had to compare apple to apple with other halls as well.
