Just saw it this morning at the 9:45 showing. The theater was practically empty! [Hint- Sunday morning first showing is a great time to go to the movies!] Hubby didn't want to see the 3-d version (3-D gives him a headache) so we opted for the regular version. We thought it was great. It differed from the book in many parts, but we got caught up in it and loved it nevertheless. I think I'm going to go back and see the 3-d version because some of the action-packed parts and some other parts seemed too choppy and blurred. My thinking is that the 3-D version should be smoother and clearer in those parts (hopefully).
