Gradually, the film industry is moving towards improving technologies both visually and soundly. New formats are appearing, the frame rate is increasing, sound recording methods are being improved. Now two main directions in the development of cinema dominate: some directors make spectacular films that create a real presence effect that makes the viewer breathtaking, while others do not chase the picture, preferring to attract attention to films due to, for example, a non-trivial plot or ingenious acting . Both categories have their own masterpieces, but if we talk about the first group, then you need to watch such a movie exclusively in the cinema. And not in the usual, but better in IMAX, if the film is also released in this format.
What is IMAX?
How is it different from usual? IMAX is a whole system that provides for not only shooting on a special wide-format film, but also non-standard cinema and projector. The screen in this case exceeds the width of the hall, so that the real effect of immersing the viewer in the film is created. This effect can be felt most fully if you visit the IMAX 3D cinema. In the whole world there are already about 400 of them. True, more than half of them are located in the USA and Canada.
Cinemas in Moscow
Despite the fact that in recent years this format has acquired a huge
popularity, there are not many suitable places where you can watch such films in Moscow. One of the best is the Nescafe IMAX cinema, which is located at the intersection of Leningradskoye Shosse and MKAD. It can not be noticed right away, because it is located in the
Capitol shopping center , at 1B Pravoberezhnaya Street. It was Nescafe IMAX on Leningradka that became the first cinema in Moscow to start showing films in this format. It was opened more than 10 years ago, but is still very popular. The screen in it is considered the largest in the country, its size is comparable to the size of a seven-story building. How to resist here and not watch any spectacular movie novelty? Moreover, there are shops nearby, a food court and everything necessary
infrastructure. So after a productive shopping trip, the option to visit IMAX's Nescafe and evaluate the achievements of the film industry is not so bad. And if there is nothing suitable for entertainment, you can go to a traditional show, because the most ordinary cinema is located next door.

In Russia, feature films in this format are still the most popular. In recent years, a lot of good movies have been released that are worth watching on the big screen and in 3D: Gravity, Avatar, The Hobbit, Sanctum, etc. - as well as a huge number of cartoons.
