to clarify my question: how is it that 3D movies look so distorted but when you use the glasses you can see it well. what do the glasses do exactly to make that happen?

They make it so that each eye sees a different image. When you look without the glasses, you see both images with both eyes, instead of one image for each eye. The light intended for each eye has different polarity, and the glasses are polarized in different directions to block the light intended for the other eye.
