I spent about $50 for myself and two kids all told after buying the tickets online (with surcharge) and concessions and what did I get? A very, very long movie with political under-tones (pick your war: Iraq, the taming of the Wild West, etc.) and just enough action to keep you from getting bored. The special effects and imagery were beautiful but the movie lacked the type of pacing and "I'll never forget that scene" impact you'd expect from a movie hyped this much. Whenever you leave a movie and say to yourself, "wow the music was one of the best parts," advise others to stay home and buy DVD.
