Entertaining And Beautiful--A Gorgeous Scenic Destination Looks Even Lovelier In 3D, By
This review is from: IMAX: The Ultimate Wave - Tahiti [Blu-ray 3D] (Blu-ray)
I recently picked up a couple of the newer IMAX 3D releases, but I was a bit wary going into "The Ultimate Wave: Tahiti." Why? Well I watched the other one (Dinosaurs: Giants of Patagonia) first. And while the 3D on that picture was perfectly serviceable, it lacked a unique or interesting narrative. That's right, folks--I want it all. I want a film that is attractive to look at, that utilizes 3D to good affect, and has an entertainment value. Well, I needn't have worried. "The Ultimate Wave: Tahiti" has all three expertly interwoven into its 45 minute presentation.Narrative: The film introduces surfer Kelly Slater and a local legend named Raimana. They are our hosts as well as the subject of this feature. I had assumed that I was going to be watching non-stop surfing action, but that isn't the case at all. The documentary covers scenic landscapes, underwater life, local customs and legends, wave science and a myriad of water sports before kicking into a surfing... Read more

Great 3D, great filming, great science, By
This review is from: IMAX: The Ultimate Wave - Tahiti [Blu-ray 3D] (Blu-ray)
OK, this Blu-Ray shows great 3D. Surfing photography has excellent traditions and techniques, and this movie uses them all. 3D cameras are placed underwater, at the surface of the waves, on the surfboards themselves, in helicopters, and in the faces of some beautiful women. The camerawork is top rate and the 3D production is as well. The material lends itself to 3D, as we are looking through the tubes of waves, down their crests, and through their glistening faces. The Blu-Ray also gives nice 3D graphic rendering of the science of volcanic island formation, and also of wave development, transmission, and breaking. Some of the most easily understood science, and made so by the advantage of 3D graphics.This Blu-Ray will look better on a bigger screen, so a 3D projector would be best.

3D Review by a 3D Connoisseur, By

This review is from: IMAX: The Ultimate Wave - Tahiti [Blu-ray 3D] (Blu-ray)
My ratings are based mainly on the QUALITY OF THE 3D, not the video content.There are about 15 out of screen effects that extend about 10% of the way, from the screen to the viewer and another 12 around 25% and 1 graphic makes it to 35% BUT, nothing special in the 3D department. Only 5 minutes of underwater fish scenes deserve a 3D applause. *** Nice scenery and under water footage *** MY 3D RATING = GOOD (poor, fair, good, very good, excellent) Note: As far as the percentages go, everyone's eyes are different. What I see at 25% you may see at 15% or 35%. To fully realize how far something is out of the screen for you, pause on an effect and direct a partner with an extended finger to the tip of what you are seeing. You may be surprised.
