About The Amazing Adventures of Spider-Man

A four-time winner for Best Attraction in the Theme Park Insider Awards, Spidey takes you on an adventure with the web-slinger as he tries to save the city. You ride in a bucking, spinning SCOOP Vehicle-- 3-D glasses night vision on your face -- through 11 scenes, escaping fireballs, 100-story drops and other mayhem. -- Last edited by Robert Niles

Ride it at least 2 to 3 times every visit -- simply incredible. - Joanna Hamilton

I have been on this one when there were synching problems with the A/V and I have been on when it stopped mid-cycle...but it is still my favorite non-coaster ride. There should be similar rides at every great major park! - Christian Baggett

Spider-Man is a surprisingly intense, head-whirling, fast paced explosion of a ride. The action flys around you a mile a minute and succeeds in making the rider feel they are part of the experience. It is in my opinion the BE-ALL END-ALL of Theme Park Attractions. 10/10 - Dan Huffman

The first time I rode this I was absolutley amazed with the amount of effort put into it. I love how although Spidey's 3D, when he jumps on real world objects they actually do something (for example, Spidey will jump on a real ladder at the beggining of the ride, and it will go down a bit because of Spidey's weight, same goes for the ride vehicle) The detail is stunning. - Roger Sage

Stunning. Go on it and then queue up and go on it again! - Mark Moore

This ride when I first rode it was absolutely amazing as the name says. For the first timers this ride will come as quite a shock at the level of greatness it acheives. It is a combination of a simulator ride/ 3D ride/ dark ride. For those who are new to the ride and just want to see it without too much thrill the three front row seats opposite the ride door provides you the chance to view only the ride and not the back of someones head as well as not producing too much force. For the thrillseekers, the best seat is the front row closest to the door or aisle seat. It produces the biggest amount of pull and force of any of the seats. - Chris Shafer
