Ellen's Energy Adventure reviews
Theme Park Insider readers offer their ratings and reviews for Ellen's Energy Adventure, a dark ride in Future World - Universe of Energy at Epcot.
Written by James Rao A good attraction for a hot afternoon when the family is looking to take a break and needs a rest (however, the dinosaur animatronics might be a bit scary for some toddlers).
Readers' rating:
This is my top attraction that I wanted to see removed from Epcot. Really dated, still like technology. Is it me or does the Ellen AA look like a guy? 4/10 - Christopher Sturniolo If you want to learn about Energy, surf the Internet. Information presented is years out of date. However, it's an amusing but very long ride, and gives some idea what consumers were told about energy in the future, back in the 80s! - Martin Rees I actually like this one it gets you out of the heat for a while and reminds me alot of the great movie ride which I always enjoy - Tom Cunningham An average ride i was not really impressed by the movie and some pathetically lame attempts at humour the anamotronics are probably the bit you would like the best. 5/10 - Jack Ainslie The dinosaurs are nice. But they need to cut out about 50% of the movie, it's just way too long. - Mostly Anonymous I thought it was a good ride. I don't think it should be scrapped like some other reviews. - Sebastian Kontic Only a 6? I thought this was strange, but very cool. It's a movie mixed with a dark ride, and the thing lasts about 40 minutes. Educational to a degree and entertaining! - Tommy Nelson This ride is a strange fish. Essentially a long movie about energy with some animatronic dinosaurs punctuating halfway through. The way the theatre becomes a ride and then a theatre again is still quite clever nearly 30 years on. The film is amusing and tackles a very dry subject as entertainingly as it can. This ride is one of the few left in Epcot that is still trying to teach guests something rather than dishing out thrills. At 45 minutes long with no chance of escape I can understand why some guests hate this attraction but I always make a visit when at Epcot. - David Wilcock If you like Ellen, you'll love this. If you like dinosaurs you'll love it even more. The animatronics are high quality. It's a must-ride for me. - Peter Pettigrew Th eride really needs to be redone or scrapped because it is so outdated. The only redeeming quality of this ride is Kramer from Seinfeld as the caveman... - Zach Nelson More attraction and restaurant ratings:
