Those who found themselves less than transported by Terra Nova‘s dinosaurs might want to check out their local Imax theater when Flying Monsters 3D hits the six-story screen. The sensational, attention-grabbing title aside, this inquiry into the evolution of winged vertebrates called pterosaurs deftly combines fact and fantasy to engrossing effect, its impressive blend of 3D and CGI technology proving much more immersing than a musty night at the museum.  …

But those gorgeously rendered flying monsters deservedly steal the show, which, incorporating the same 3D CGI technology used in Avatar, magically brings them within pecking distance.
