This ride is what you make it, so it can suit a wide range of ride preferences. At some points, it got a little too intense for me, so I took my glasses off. Very managable ride after that. Keep your glasses on for the full effect. Can get really loud. Probably scary for the little ones. I used express pass right after it opened, and I thought it was a good use of my time, but I would have probably been disappointed had I waited in a long line.
Pros:
Can make it as scary or as tame as you likeCons:
Might be too scary for younger kidsReviewed by Sparky999 Review Date: 11/22/2021

This is criminally underrated. The setup is excellent, with one of the most atmospheric queues in Orlando. While it would have benefitted from more physical sets, this exceeds where Fast and Furious next door fails by building up effectively to the 360 degree 'main scene' with effective set design, sound effects and entertaining, smaller scenes. The animatronic at the end is amazing, but the entire ride is worth your time. Sit in the middle of your row to get the full benefit of both sides of the Kong vs Dinos scene.
Pros:
Amazing effects, genuinely scary queue and show building, great animatronic, good attraction lengthCons:
Too reliant on screens and having a good seat (somewhere in the middle of your row ideally)Reviewed by itsagreatbigbeautifultomorrow Review Date: 10/14/2021

I think this is a neat ride, but it reminds me a lot of fast and furious. I think that the screens are really impressive, and the outside of the temple is neat. But it can be scary for young ones. Heck even I was a little frightened as a adult. The animatronic at the end is really impressive. Before covid, there used to be someone that would scare you in the queue and that was enough to make my blood pressure spike.
Pros:
Impressive screening and animatronicCons:
The queue is CREEPY, not for kids, can make you sickReviewed by anagram Review Date: 09/27/2021

This attraction was fine, but definitely does not top my list of favorites. I liked that it was interesting enough to keep our attention, but not too scary that my 7 year old couldn't ride. I would not wait more than 20-30 minutes for this ride at the most.
Pros:
Good theming. As someone who knows nothing about Kong, it was fun for me to try to figure out if Kong was a good guy or bad guy.Cons:
Not the most thrilling ride at the park.Reviewed by rahbekah Review Date: 08/03/2021

Here's the thing with this ride: it's fine. However, most of it is sitting in a bus watching screens. I like the 360 screen effect that is created, and the outside of the attraction is cool (especially when you're on the bus and drive into the mountain). The Kong animatronic at the end is probably my favorite part. I definitely wouldn't wait longer than 20-30 minutes for this, and it's not really something I'm dying to ride again.
Pros:
Animatronic at the endCons:
Too many screens and not worth a long waitReviewed by KSteele Review Date: 07/14/2021

Scary!
Pros:
You get scared, which is the point. I made my 10 year son hold my hand, so I wouldn't get too scared.Cons:
Can you see if you are in the middle of the bus?Reviewed by KayleyB17 Review Date: 07/12/2021

This ride is pretty cool but definitely not worth waiting over 20 minutes for.
