A reviewer from CNET compared three different 3D projection technologies used for showing the movie Beowulf. For the first time, viewers had a choice not only of watching with the film in Imax 3D and Real D projection technology, but also in the newcomer Dolby 3D format. Based on the review, it appears that Dolby 3D technology came out significantly ahead of the other two 3D projection formats.

According to the review: "Dolby's technology gave a sharp image that showed every beard bristle, the colors were relatively rich, flicker from moving objects was nonexistent, but most significantly, the sense of depth was strong. Even the subtle differences between a character's facial features were perceptible, and group shots with a host of characters showed as true depth, not as a number of gradually more distant two-dimensional layers. I was truly impressed."
