The movie itself was great! Having read all the books, I enjoyed this movie alot, though the first one is still my favorite. The 3D Experience was way too short for the cost of the tickets, 12 minutes? Makes me wonder what other tricks are up their sleeve. Save your money and see the regular movie - don't waste it on the "IMAX experience."
The movie was long overdue. I certainly enjoyed it, special effects were good, glad it had ties to the first movie (which is still my favorite). Definitely would add the DVD to my collection when it comes out.
