Saw it yesterday, it was pretty good.
Not LOTR good, but a fun movie nonetheless.

The 3D was serviceable, but I don't think it makes or breaks the experience.

My only real gripe I had was that the CG was a bit much at times - I kept wondering to myself why they didn't use an actual actor and practical effects for Azog like they did for Lurtz and the Uruk-hai in LOTR.
Seems to me they hit the Uncanny Valley with Azog, he looked good...but not good enough, and it took me out of the movie every time he was on screen.
