This ride gets packed later on in the day so I advise you go pretty early. It is a fun, easy ride that is fun for the whole family. - Monica Millsaps

This ride is a nice way to cool off. It has cool scenery. - Joe YO

A really cute, relaxing ride. We love the themeing and the cool, misty, woodsy feel inside the building. The anamatroncis needs A LOT of updating. But, all-in-all, a nice little ride. - Gil Long

My kids are afraid of ET but we insist it was okay. It wasnt scary but it wasnt okay, either. TOTAL WASTE OF TIME!!!!! (but cool to see Steven Spielberg in the beginning!) - Dan Rosenberg

This was a decent ride, but it looks like it could use some help with some of the effects. - Patrick Gorham

Alot of attention to detail in the design of this ride. I would like to see some of the effects in the ride get some much needed attention, but a very good attraction. - Michael Newsom

if you are a ET fan or went to see the film in the 80s this is a ride not to miss ,if your at universal with young kids make sure they do not miss the magic of this ride.. - DARRAN HAYWARD

Essential to that portion of the park. It got a much needed update back in 2002 (at least with the pre-show). It is a ride I feel Universal should always keep considering Hollywood removed it for their version of the Mummy fiasco...lol. NOT worth more than a 30 minute wait however. If you see a 30 minute wait, go somewhere else and return at a later time. - Wilfredo Alvelo

a cute little ride. nice queue through a forest. the lines usually short. i like the little model city they built as well, must have taken a long time. - roxy m
