The queue is gorgeous, and the ride itself is really interesting if you're a movie geek like I am, hahah. It has enough action to not totally bore you out of your mind and is definitely worth a visit. - casandra d

A fun ride for families, but the quality of this ride all depends on how interactive your guide is and how others in the car play along. - Brandie S

My kids, 9 and 11, were bored. So was I. It just seems outdated. Disney sets the bar high, so I was expecting a lot more from this. - Roger Sadler

I was disappointed in this ride. I don't think it's the rides fault but I had a bad skipper. - Moon Max

great ride... just update one scene every year there is always something new gradually rotating out the non-disney scenes unless they can keep theme and just update them. They also need to update the queue movie. - David L.

Very very good the first time. The Cinema queue is gorgeous. - gaetan leclercq

An old school ride, it will either be a highlight or bore. Its good for one ride, and be best for those who have watched a lot of movies, - Timothy Nguyen

Enjoyable ride with silly but fun acting and stunts. Worth a ride if the wait isn't too long. - Emily G

Due for a good sprucing up though the dioramas are still pretty neat. - Christian Baggett

This ride has seen better days and is now dated. The guy driving our trolley even managed to crash into the munchkins at Oz, thus closing the ride! - Mark Moore
