Hall of Presidents reviews
Theme Park Insider readers offer their ratings and reviews for Hall of Presidents, a animatronic show in Liberty Square at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.
Following a similar vein to Walt's original World's Fair "Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln", this patriotic show features a look at the history of the American presidency, including a presentation of animatronic American Presidents--every American President to date.
Readers' rating:
There are two sides of a medal, that's totally true for this show. While the exterior, the informative and detailed waiting hall and the atmosphere in the theater are outstanding, the show itself lacks real highlights. The intro and the following film (narrated by Morgan Freeman) are pretty decent and give you a good and short overview of American history, while the speech of Abraham Lincoln is jaw dropping thanks to the astonishing animatronics. The final roll call of the Presidents on the other hand is so boring it makes this show almost unbearable for repeaters. - Chris W. Good but not great. We don't stop to see it every vacation. It's nice to see it once or twice, but not too often. - Rob Pastor A much improved show since 2008, this one is definitely near the top of my MK list. - Sean Huckel How to study for APUSH in 20 minutes. 7/10 - Christopher Sturniolo A Great Learning experience at the parks...i got a nap while my son learnt a bit of american history! - Brendan Harrison Nothing special. I just went in for a blast of the AC and a nap! 5/10 - D H Obama is an excellent new AA, nearly on a par with the great Lincoln animatronic at Disneyland. - Sylvain Comeau Nice place to have a nap/rest if it's not up your street. I really enjoyed it however, the political types in the room were quite annoying, cheering/booing various presidents. - Dan Jones Some presidents, particularly from the last 50 years, get reactions, both positive and negative. I decided to abstain and just think of the office, not the man. Maybe I clapped a little harder for TR. But, what was funny was that between the assorted cheers/boos for Reagan and Clinton, there was dead, and I mean near total, silence for GHW Bush. - Marc Ricketts More attraction and restaurant ratings: |
