...AMC 14 in a medium sized theater that didn't look to be a wrap around:
IMAX 3D was particularly well synchronized, very bright and crystal clear. Resolution was eye popping at ~50' from screen. Sound: good. Could detect some shuddering when movements were too fast for the system's capability (give them 5 years).
Seated at center, my field of view was truncated (framed) not only by the 3D glasses, but the relative narrowness of the smaller venue (~500 capacity?). The smaller venue may have been intentional for optimal brightness and optical trueness (just as a long/narrow focal length keeps a deeper field within focus.
(We have a HUGE original "wraparound" IMAX in the city, but as I recall its image was generally about the same - iirc.)
Ymmv.
