This attraction could have been so much better. I dont know why simulator ride designers feel that they have to take the hardware to the absolute extremes of what it can do. If they had shown some restraint and simply focused on the zany story, this attraction would have been much, much better. Martin Short does a great job, and the concept is sound. It would be worth reprogramming and reshooting this thing to get it right.

This is a fun simulater that doesnt get enough credit for what it is. Sure its not as good as Spidy or back to the future. Thats because its a different kind of ride. This is not the staple of the park, so give Martin Short a break, huh? Ride this AFTER Montu and Kumba.

this ride is an embarrassment to the park. Questor, the simlator which was there before akbars adventures was much better, Akbar has bad graphics, a small screen, and a bumpy ride that really doesnt give a very good sensation of movement with the screen.

I enjoy Martin Short, but the ride itself is so-so. The screen is very small, but it is kind of fun with a special effect here and there. Only ride if theres no line.

This ride is a joke compared to the simulators at Universal Studios and IOA. The theming, I think, is pathetic.

Were it not for the corny humor, this would not have been really worth it. It doesnt seem as though this has aged well. It was also a bit rough. Technology has made this rather obsolete. Recommendation: You will get thrown around alot

This is a great simulator not because of the actual ride experience, but because of the movie. It is a lot of fun and quite funny. Id be sure to catch this one.

Well, this ride is a very good simulator...alot better than the jerky Body Wars. It has some of the best themeing in Busch Gardens. It does give a slightly jerky ride, but what simulator doesnt? It has some great comedy. And as LaffnStock pointed out, the surprise will catch you by surprise. Great ride overall original and has a good storyline. The ratings are, Design - 8, Themeing - 8, Fun Factor - 9, Re-Ride - 6, Intensity - 5, Scare Factor - 4, Originality - 8. The final score is...6.8 which rounded is a 7. Thanks For Listening.

Better than both Star Wars and Body Wars at Disney, but doesnt even come close to Back to the Future or Spiderman. Martin Short is great!
