3D NIGHT

or where my love of visual effects brought me.

TRON

Saw the beginning again. The only remarkable scene was the opening one. I felt like on a rollercoaster ride. Then I left.

ALICE IN WONDERLAND

Walked out as soon as I realized it was dubbed. A 3D night was supposed to be for adults after all.

FINAL DESTINATION 4

Recommended again. Fascinating action with great twists in a movie showcasing what 3D has been invented for.

CLASH OF THE TITANS

Watchable. Sam Worthington was difficult to take eyes off. All the rest was quite run-of-the-mill. The colours could vary more.

SANCTUM

Only managed to see the ending - completely flat.

CAVE OF FORGOTTEN DREAMS

Walked out. A boring film inspired by French dokumentary making - showing every minute of the expedition, as if it made it more philosophical.

STEP UP

Watchable second time round. Cheerful and makes you feel like dancing. It really does.

ANIMATIONS

Mostly promoting the Euro 2012 and merits of Polish regions, with an emphasis on extreme sports, very artistic, I'd personally prefer something more realistic.

COMMERCIALS

Better of worse. Some would just show a flat picture pointing in your direction. Still, Australian ads looked reasonably good and I loved the property one - your eyes get a chance to walk through houses.

TRAILERS

"1920 - The Battle of Warsaw" was fully 3D - puts you right in the middle of the battlefield. "Final Destination 5" looked mediocre - I'm afraid the storyline may be over the top, the cliffhanging moments on a collapsed bridge seemed farfetched.

Can't wait to attend the Classic Night of the Cinema in 3 weeks.
