In this video, I check out the unique movie theater viewing experience that is ScreenX. It's a format that displays part of the movie across 270-degree field of view. Multiple projectors help get the image across both side walls to stimulate your peripherals. What better way to get a first experience than with Top Gun: Maverick!
I do not own any of the short clips I showed. It is only intended for demonstration purposes. It's also my understanding that this action falls under Fair Use. All credit goes to Paramount Pictures Studios.

We had to decide between regular screen and ScreenX and ended up with regular because of timing issues. Seeing your review and watching some of the ScreenX featurettes - I was SOLD on needing to watch it again on that format. Amazing, just watched it again and was almost better than I expected. It really made the viewing a fresh and exciting experience.

I tried Top gun Maverick on IMAX, ScreenX and 4DX. I think ScreenX, and I MAX were good. But 4DX for Maverick wasn't worth it to me because 4DX is not moving like Disney or Universal studio's rides, and no seatbelt.

Thank you for this! I'm actually planning to go watch a 2nd time - specially for ScreenX format (so your video helps a ton on deciding if it's worth it)! That said, how does the sound compare to say IMAX or other high quality auditoriums (say Regal's RPX)?

I went to a screening of "Maze Runner" in 2014 that was presented in ScreenX. The theater was testing the new format. It took some time getting used-to NOT looking to the sides. The peripheral action was all incidental to what was happening on the front-center screen. It was more immersive, but a key drawback for me was the sound system was not properly designed or configured to enhance the effect. Overall, it WAS a slight improvement to the moviegoing experience, but without better sound it wasn't dramatically different.

Since ScreenX for feature films was introduced in late 2015, you actually watched it in the Barco Escape format, which closed in 2018. Barco Escape's debut was with "The Maze Runner."

It’s good, but my theater just added projectors instead of fully tailoring the the side walls. I think if a couple theaters built from the ground up use screen X, it would be much better.

Thanks for the review. It's getting shown again in some UK cinemas for 3 quid, so I might well check that out, given that I saw it in IMAX back in May. The plot is threadbare (and basically, Iron Eagle II), but the aerial shots were immense. I'm just gutted Tony Scott is no longer around to direct it. However, it was nice to see Don Simpson credited as joint producer in the opening shot, like with the first film. Great to see the Screen X effect in-cinemas as well. In the UK, if you filmed anything in the room, they keep an eye on that and would boot you out, and possibly ban you from the cinema.

I have watched the Screen X on same Top Gun movie. certain scenes that i could not seen it at normal screen ended up with clearer and wider coverage with Screen X. It is worth the penny to go for Screen X for sure. I wonder how it would be with "4Dx" on same movie next !

After ~7 hours I will hop in cinema to check Top Gun: Maverick in ScreenX. Chose Screen X because I think there would be a lot of in cockpit clips that would suit Screen X better. Lets hope I am right, although I didn't want to watch a probably typical boring action movie in first place. But I hope am wrong ;)
