I was really looking forward to this doc as I have seen This In Cinerama on three-screen projection and have been obsessed with the process. The documentary is one missed opportunity after another, basically a puff-piece with the worst, I repeat, THE WORST music score put to film (a good chunk of it is from How The West Was Won and the Mormon Tabernacle segment from This Is Cinerama, but there is so much Americana Heartland-style music, it is like a bad exhibition from Disneyworld.) The documentary is just too sedate for its subject. The smilebox screen of the cinerama footage is well done and the stories from original production people, including an incredible flight over a volcano, is amazing. I just really, really wish the doc itself was more exciting.
