So just watched Avatar 2 halfway through in IMAX. The theatre where I went played the HFR version, and only 2-3% on the movie was in normal frame rate.
Unfortunately, the HFR looks too hyper realistic, like the whole sequence is happening in your backyard. Colors look muted compared to normal frame rate. The 3D in HFR doesn't add much, but due to HFR , there was no"cinematic" vibe to it. Felt like watching a documentary. There's a visible lack of depth and impact when watching HFR vs normal frame rate.
Will likely watch it again in 2D in a theatre running normal frame rate.
Really hope this does not start HFR trend in the industry. Just cannot stand it.
