I went to an IMAX showing of 300 last night.� Though we arrived in advance of the showing, the theatre was mostly full by the time we arrived so we ended up sitting in the second row.� In a normal movie theatre, the second row is considered a bit too close to the screen.� In an IMAX theatre, the second row is waaaaaay too close to the screen.

That having been said, the movie was a reasonably well done, though I found the sheer size of the screen and my closeness to it detracted from my enjoyment of it.� Oh, and people who do not like violent movies should refrain from viewing this movie as their sensibilities will very likely be offended.
