The problem is it tried so hard to be a 3D movie that it was lacking in all other area. The movie itself was pretty boring with everything so predictable.
Funnily nobody watches movies in 3d anymore I think? Looks like it was bust a fad.

It's hypothesized that, with old accounts of Lumieres' enterprise being very messy, the 2D premiere of ‘The Arrival’ was conflated with the 3D showing, and that's where we get the stories of the audience panicking about the train.
Avatar however, took us to a whole new level. The modern CGI, along with the incredible amount of effort that went into planning out the cinematography to integrate with the 3D, is truly unmatched.
Many big ‘Blockbuster’ still have 3D versions, but it’s so clearly just something they add on after the fact, and they weren’t designed with that in mind. Very forgettable.
This is okay IMO. There is no shortage of great movies. I don't mind that we've got Avatar: the incredible tech demo with uninteresting plot instead of Avatar: a good movie.
It has its place in some movies.
