No, Atmos is not night and day and you are not experiencing overhead effects all the time with it, but it does make some difference and isn't pointless. It will create a more atmosheric 3D soundstage if listening to a good soundtrack. There are however soundtracks that do not implement this new format very well and some that even use it as a marketing tool for the content without very much attention if any being payed to the mixing of said soundtrack.
Is it essential? No, and there's still plenty of fun to be had from 7.1 or even 5.1. Does it add anything? Yes, but don't expect things to be whizzing over head all the time in the manner some have tried to suggest Atmos will.
