How can I watch a side-by-side 3D video in 2D?

I have a 3D movie (.MKV), with side-by-side 3D, and it works just fine at home. Now I want to see it at my friend’s house, and they don’t have a 3D system.

Is there any way to crop one of the sides on VLC or convert it to 2D?

My friend uses a Mac, but I can use Mac OS X or Windows 7 to play the file.
