•We propose a feature-based 2D+3D multimodal facial expression recognition method.•It is fully automatic benefit from a large set of automatically detected landmarks.•The complementarities between 2D and 3D features are comprehensively demonstrated.•Our method achieves the best accuracy on the BU–3D...
