, but I think that has more to do with the visual effects than the actual 3D itself. I haven't watched it nearly as much or recently as Friday the 13th Part 3, but they both have a softer look. My eyes go cross in some of the 3D shots in it as well.
I think 3-D is one of the most subjective topics imaginable. Even more so than comedy. Everybody seems to have a different perspective on what is “good”. Plenty of people, myself included, think Tron Legacy looks flat as a pancake. But there are a lot of folks who think it’s the greatest 3D they’ve ever seen. Having said that, I agree that Jaws 3-D has good, strong 3D. It’s not perfect, but nobody I’ve ever shown it to on my projector has walked away disappointed.
