This movie is visually stunning, and deserves all of the acclaim it has receieved. However, having seen the movie in 3-D at a "normal" theater, and then again in IMAX, I would suggest that the IMAX version doesn't offer anything more extraordinary. If it's a choice between a $9 ticket and $14 IMAX ticket - choose to see it in 3-D in a NORMAL theater! It's just a good!
