When the third The Hobbit film came out I read reviews on how it was a bit "unsettling" to watch it due to the higher frame rate because it looked like a stage play as opposed to a film. When I went to see it at this higher frame rate (and in 3D since I think they went hand in hand in the cinema's offering that version) sure enough it did look a bit weird to begin with, I don't know if it was just a case of getting used to it and it becoming less noticeable throughout the film (much like the 3D effects) but after a while I don't really recall seeing any parts that stood out in that way.
I figured it's because it was only partially shot at the higher frame rate with a lot of the rest of it being digitally enhanced. Makes me wonder though, do they get sneaky and do that with the 3D as well? Like, shoot parts of it in real 3D and convert anything they don't? Then they could technically get away with saying that it was shot in real 3D, because it was - just not all of it.
