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:
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 A nice show. Very educational and up to date. 7/10 - Dominick D 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 A decent attraction with the addition of our new President. Also a great place to take a quick nap in the cool air. - Brandie S It's great! But when BARACK OBAMA part came on I fell asleep. But it was great and real cool with the ac on. - richard comisky The best place in the park to take an afternoon break from the heat. Cool off and get a small dose of Disney-fied American history while you are at it. The recent updates are welcome (especially Morgan Freeman's voiceover) however, the Obama animatronic is one of the worst I've seen WDI produce in a while (did they just forget to finish his face, or what?). I do appreciate the fact that the new "Obama Speech" is generic enough that it can be easily adapted to the next President in the club, which should limit the attraction's downtime after the next Presidential election. ;) Thankfully, there was neither booing nor cheering (nor snoring) during the showing I visited. Maybe the American public is learning that manners are important? - James Rao More attraction and restaurant ratings:
