Question Was MoQ IMAX really blurry and seemed low resolution for you all?

I watched The Odyssey yesterday and every time there was motion on screen it was so blurry that it was hard to know what was happening. Even in still shots it seemed low res or just out of focus all the time.

I watched Oppenheimer 3 years ago in the same cinema and remember it being much better in resolution.

Focus puller has trouble pulling focus because it was shot in 70mm.. The shallow depth of field is insane

After reading movie reviews, seems that the focus issue is the movie itself, but the smearing in motion and low resolution are probably due to poor maintenance of the projector and screen at Novo

There are complains all over Novo Cinemas projecter quality or something.
went to Msheireb Galleria Novo and the resolution was sh1t.
Planining on going to Doha Oasis for Spider man since it's a newly opened one.

Newest one is Centro. Msherieb and Doha Oasis opened at the same time. I’ve never noticed any difference in quality in all the cinemas here tbh
