DO NOT GO TO IMAX at Discovery Place. Just saw Star Wars - The Last Jedi and I should have asked for my money back! The image was so dark that at times I couldn't see characters' faces. The "center channel" audio was so low I could barely make out the dialog. I never heard any surround sound channels effects, and the LFEs were non-existent. Plus, the dome changed the perspective--straight lines were bent of course. There was very little saturation--instead of bright colors, the colors were muted to "Earth" browns of the 70s. STONE CREST at PIPER GLEN is 10x better for IMAX!!! It was WORSE than a standard movie!!!

My first (and last) IMAX Dome movie. Very disappointed. Just saw "Dunkirk" - probably a great movie, but a terrible viewing experience. Imagine watching a movie from the perspective of an ant, peering through a fish-eye lens and sitting way, way too close to the screen. You're basically lying on your back, craning your neck to look up and around just to figure out what's going on in each scene. Everything was terribly distorted. I'd like to see Dunkirk again on a "traditional" screen, but this was just annoying. I wanted to get up and leave after 10 minutes but decided to give it a chance. $16 tickets - not worth it, IMHO.

Even though they have the capabilities of showing a 70mm IMAX film, they have absolutely no business doing so. At first I thought I was overthinking it all, but after reading the reviews on here I feel better knowing I wasn't off. Watching Dunkirk, I changed seats three times, ending up in the very last row, which still didn't give me any sort of vantage point, and you can never see the film for what it is supposed to be. I felt like a cat chasing a red dot with my eyes the whole 105 minute film time. I was uneasy and nauseous most of the time and the seats could barely for my 5'10" 200lbs frame without my knees almost touching the people in front of me. I'm actually surprised they were approved to show the film, but I guess money is money. Speaking of that don't waste time or money here unless it's a short nature/outer space documentary type film for education purposes.

Went to see Dunkirk last night. Terrible experience. The movie was terribly distorted since the screen is in the shape of a spherical dome. It was hard to see any of the picture and it made me nauseated through the entire film. Not worth the $16. Make sure you go see Dunkirk on either a traditional large theatre screen or an IMAX that isn’t shaped like a sphere.
