Does the 3D add a lot to the movie "Gravity"?

I was trying to decide if I should see it in 2D, or pay a few bucks extra to see it in 3D.

Thanks

and I would say it was worth it, yes.

The movie is visually stunning, if nothing else.

I was almost as impressed as I was with "Avatar" which I also saw on IMAX 3D

Edit to say I am going to see "Enders Game" on an IMAX screen today, but it doesn't appear that it is in 3D. Either way, the screens are so huge and the cameras that do the filming are specialized that it makes for an interesting experience.

It's the only 3-D movie I've seen where 3-D actually works and enhances the experience.
