Everything looks very smooth. The first 5 minutes looked very odd, but after the prologue I was totally into it. The HFR works especially well for aerial shots and action sequences, and it does indeed make the 3D look very nice. I’m not sure how I would have felt about it if I hadn’t already watched the whole thing once, but I’d say it’s worth checking out.

The theater I went to was just selling all the 3D tickets together, so I accidentally saw the 24p version. Then, naturally, snuck into the HFR version immediately after.
