Is it worth seeing Star Wars in 3D?

First off, it’s worth mentioning the obvious.

No amount of 3D can change the fact that there’swaaaytoo much about trade taxation routes in this film.

The whole ‘is Natalie Portman grooming a child?’

sub-plot is still there.

Jar Jar Binks hasn’t been digitally erased.

The key to this is that most of the 3D effects are relatively subtle.

Occasionally the 3D gets in the way of a scene.

But mostly it looks pretty natural.

The one stand-out 3D moment is the podrace.

This is like that.

Hand in wallet, is it worth it?

So is it worth paying to see?

3D doesn’t add enough to make a cinema ticket worthwhile.

Unless the idea of a 3D podrace appeals – that bit is seriously good.

Also, Darth Maul is cool.

And the music is amazing.

Let’s face it, you’re going anyway.Da-daaa.
