They're coming right at me!

reviewed Tues, 07 Dec 1999

For all those of you in town, and those of you with a local IMAX theater, run, do not walk, to see the spectacular 3-D IMAX film Galapagos at the Natural History Museum.  This is like no 3-D I've ever seen -- it's unbelievably realistic, relying less on "it's coming right at me!" gimmicks than on making you feel like you're standing there on the lava flows, peering over the ledge at a cranky cormorant.  Plus you get to wear these glasses that look like those oversized novelty sunglasses.  You'll probably have to buy tickets at least a day in advance, because they usually sell out all the day's shows early.  It's worth the trouble of making two trips to the museum, though.
