To help with the all important question
"Is it worth seeing it in 3D?"
Is it Real or Fake 3D? lists it as fake 3D (post-production addition of 3D). So it seems like it may not be worth it.
Update: Cinemablend - To 3D or Not To 3D?
"little to no eye-popping elements"
"possesses more depth in 3D picture than the last Marvel film did"
"some of the sequences move too fast for the eye to properly register the image"
But I'm looking for other peoples opinions and a general consensus.
I also think it would help if studios listed the amount of 3D footage present in a movie, since you're primarily paying the difference for that extra footage.
P.S. Apologies for formatting: 'Return' doesn't make a new line for me ; third quote won't go into the box =(

The last 3D movie I saw in theaters was The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey. The 3D experience ruined the movie more me. Later, I watched the movie in 2D and changed my mind. The characters didn't look as cheesy and their movements didn't look so bizarre. I liked it. The Hobbit was listed under the 'real' 3D movie list too. So I think any movie listed under 'fake' 3D would be a bad idea. But ultimately I don't think any movie would be worth seeing in 3D.

In my experience 3D movies usually don't add much, or seem to make the objects any better. I can't think of any movie I've seen where it has. Hopefully it'll improve.

There's the odd film where 3D improves the experience. Dredd comes to mind, and possibly Fury Road but I haven't seen it in 2D yet to compare. Oh and Avatar of course, the 3D was the only reason to see that film.
Otherwise it's mostly just a distraction.

Gravity in 3D was stunning.
Mostly, though, I'd say that if you notice the 3D, they're doing it wrong.

I saw the new Terminator in 3D and it wasn't that bad, it was also listed under "fake 3D"...

That it looked fake had probably more to do with the fact that it was shown in HFR. The higher framerate does weird things like making it look like a cheap TV production and make scenes seem sped up. It's mainly our brain not being used to seeing so much visual information in movies.

I haven't seen many 3D movies but Life of Pi and Pacific Rim were movies I saw that were worth seeing in 3D.
