Final Verdict: Peter Jackson made The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey to be seen in 48fps and in 3D, but it’s definitely something you should weigh before purchasing your ticket. As a 30 out of 35 indicates, the movie uses the technology well, but it’s not perfect, and purists may want to see the Hobbit movies the same way they saw the Lord of the Rings films – in regular old 2D. Having seen the film I will recommend the 3D experience, but this is one title that requires you to make a determination based on something beyond the final score.
