Readers' rating:

despite the big budget 3-d movie, I wasn't that imporessed with the film as I was with the combination of live action stunts and the movie 7/10 wouldnt wqit more than 1/2 hour - travis traymoore

Ground-breaking when it opened; a little tired now. That said, the answer is investment not closure. It is still a great show, and has become a distinctive part of the USF fabric. Universal has two options here: either move to deliberately anchor the attraction in the time-frame it opened in (and is now dated to) or, instead, attempt to bring the aesthetics and the preshow up to date. - Man-Eating Sharks

I must say I jumped a few times during this great show! 7/10 - D H

Love it! It was the first 3D attraction that I had ever been on a decade ago and I thought it was the coolest thing ever! Now though, it is getting outdated and with 4D attractions now, it's not as ground breaking for me. The pre-show queue can get a little long becuse you are on your feet the whole time. It's geared towards adults. The cool thing about this is that there is also live action incorporated into the show. All things considering, it is still fun and should be experienced at least once. 7.5/10 - Bob Liebe

Boring I say bring in a avatar ride or show - Manny Rodriguez

Do it once and done - Terri Pierce

Have never intentionally watched one of his movies in its entirety, certainly never voted for him, but this is a great attraction, and a 3D film aimed at adults. - Marc Ricketts

Best 3-D show out there. The integration of live action and 3-D is perfect. The preshow is a bit long to stand through though. - David Garey

I didn't really like this show, but my kids did more than I did so I brought up my score a bit. I can't explain why I didn't like it without giving away what happens. I can say I'm simply not a fan of shows that involve long pre-shows standing in the middle of a crowd of people jostling around for seating position. Short people can really feel isolated in crowds. - Charles Reichley
