4DX is a state-of-the-art film technology developed by CJ 4DPLEX which delivers an immersive multi-sensory cinematic experience. 4DX incorporates on-screen visuals with synchronized motion seats and environmental effects such as water, wind, fog, scent, snow and more, to enhance the action on screen.
Different floral scents and coffee are available, but during the Need for Speed presentation, the scents were relegated to burning rubber and gunpowder. In general, pungent odors make viewers nauseous, but here, the burning scent enhanced scenes of cars in flames, adding an extra layer of immediacy.
Do not eat or drink during intense scenes when the motion chairs will be most active. Do not wear delicate clothing or any articles that may be adversely affected by the 4DX effects, and take measures to protect clothing against wind, rain-like conditions, bubbles, and strong scents.
The movie shown was Rampage and results of applying the 4DX to it were mixed but generally satisfactory. First off, here's what worked. Those concerned that the rain effects will have them wet and cold needn't fear. It's more mist-like than rain-like and doesn't leave that dreaded feeling of moistness (*shudders*).
Remain seated at all times unless you are getting up to leave the auditorium. Be mindful of the footrests when getting on or off the 4DX motion chairs. Exit the cinema as quickly and carefully as possible.
The motion sickness is more likely to cause physical discomfort when watching 4D movies, and the experiment proves that this discomfort can be alleviated by psychological comfort, so keep a good mood before watching a 4D movie, which can effectively reduce the audience's motion sickness.
This film is meant to be seen on the biggest screen possible. However, if one wants to increase the amazingness of the film, 4DX is the way to go. Every time the characters are in the planes, the seats are moving around as if one is really in the plane with them. It really adds to the suspense of the dog fights.
Do you have to wear 3D glasses for a 4DX film screening? The 4DX experience takes place in a special auditorium at the Kinepolis cinema: thanks to its hinged seats and adapted environment, it plunges the viewers into the universe of the film. However, if the film is not presented in 3D, you don't need to wear glasses.
Due to motion effects used in the 4D Chocolate Adventure pre-show and cinema, it is not suitable for pregnant women or guests with heart or spinal conditions. There are however static (non-moving) chairs available which you can use.
There's no bad seat in a 4DX auditorium as they all move along with the action. That being said, you'll be more engulfed by the fog and the bubbles closer to the front as that's where the machines are located, and you'll get a fuller experience of the rain right in the centre of the auditorium.
If you are pregnant, elderly, physically or mentally sensitive or have any of the following health conditions, you should not use a 4DX auditorium: high blood pressure, heart conditions, allergies, neck or back conditions or epilepsy.
4DX cinema has launched in Australia with extra special effects and moving seats that synchronise perfectly with the action on the screen to fully immerse you in the movie.

4DX Recliner is a motion base that can be added to existing recliners, offering a more comfortable and private movie watching experience to audiences. This enables exhibitors to repurpose auditoriums with existing recliner seats by adding a 4DX motion base.
Within the armrest lies a small button that allows viewers to toggle between two options: “Water On” and “Water Off.” The device serves as a harbinger – and, to 4DX novices, perhaps a warning — of the full-tilt sensory experience that is about to unfold as Brad Pitt fights for his life against an army of opposing ...
Hi David, we advise customers that the weight limit in our 4DX screens is due to the functionality of the seat movements and that if they are in excess of the limit, they may experience limited movement and potentially limit the movement of the seats around them.
IMAX uses two 2K projectors to show films either in 2D or 3D. The projectors are powerful enough to display high-quality images in the 15/70 mm film format. 4DX, on the other hand, uses multi-screen projection, plus the 21 effects, to deliver a 4D movie-watching experience. IMAX tickets are relatively cheaper than 4DX.
Difference Between 3D and 4Dx
In addition to the 3D image, there are also other elements like water, wind, smoke, smells and much more involved in the experience of watching a 4D movie. The most attractive difference for a 4DX movie is that you essentially get to live in the movie.
4DX is often mistaken for or compared to IMAX 3D. However, both are vastly different standards. IMAX screens have more to do with the picture quality and the sound, whereas 4DX is more about the seats and practical effects. 4DX cinemas can screen both 2D and 3D movies.
But for many people, the images in 3-D or IMAX movies look so real that they mess up the brain's ability to sort out the signals coming in from the senses, and trigger that queasy feeling.
They do however allow buckets of popcorn (open) and maga sized cups of fizzy drinks, so must admit I felt a bit annoyed not to be able to enjoy my Sunday morning treat.
