Amazingly awesome original ride better not go or someone will need actuall answers - Andrew Dougherty I want to like this ride. THe queue inside is awesome, but the ride is old and tacky. Update it or get rid of it. I know it's old, but I don't get why it's a classic. - Skipper Adam Fun! I'm so glad I didn't pass this one by. Nostalgic, better-than-average dark ride, with some unique elements to keep it interesting. I wonder, though- in 2011, do kids even know who ET is?? - KJ Simpson I always enjoy this ride I love that you see Et Planet 8/10. - Giovanny Cruz The only attraction in the park that has remained unchanged for years (Longer than Jaws), a good thing if you ask me since this is a definitive classic. The forest queue alone, with that wonderful smell, makes it worth the trip. The best part of the ride is the first part when you're evading those darned adults and finally take off into the sky, but it's all downhill from there. ET's planet is an acid induced headache of a set: chaotic, loud, and annoying...but luckily that queue and first half more than make up for the failings of the 2nd half. Overall a great ride that is a must for everyone visiting. 7/10 - Dan Huffman Cute. The ride can be surprisingly thrilling at the beginning, but the last half is very peaceful. It's basically "It's a Small World"...on acid. - Andy Milito Yup. ETs planet is dying, and somebody will have to get him to his home planet. Lucky you, and the other passengers, get to save ET and escape the forest rangers, fly over the city, and have a blast on this outstanding classic. However, when you get to ETs planet when its dying, it gets LOUD. After its back to normal, feel free to open your ears and celebrate. Do not miss. 9/10 PS: This ride does have a 34 inch height requirement. - Dominick D It has a great theme,there aren't many inverted dark ridrs. I like it thoigh. - Tyler Bell An excellent ride and, as with Jaws, a vital part of the Universal Studios Florida fabric. Could perhaps benefit in the long-term from technological upgrades when the budget allows. Can still boast the most immersive queue of any theme-park attraction! - Man-Eating Sharks Outdated but it's still better than Peter Pan's flight in WDW. 5/10 - D H Another classic ride at Universal Studios! The ride is very tame and good for all ages. If you are a thrill seeker, than this is not your ride. Sure it's getting outdated, but it is a cornerstone for USF. It brings you back to a simpler time and for that and it's historic factor, I give it a solid 8/10. - Bob Liebe Use a fake or weird name and it makes this ride 100x better. - Zach Nelson Love it its a old ride but fun maybe they could remodel or Change but keep the et theme - Manny Rodriguez There seem to be many LSD enthusiasts on ET's home planet. - Marc Ricketts I thought it would be more of a kid-oriented ride, but it's more of a nostalgic dark ride for fans of the movie. Very good special effects make this ride 100 times better than Peter Pan's Flight. 8/10 - Jorge Arnoldson More attraction and restaurant ratings:
