Nice ride. The sharks wasnt incredible but it was pretty realistic. The effects are great. You might even get a little wet. Take the time to visit this one too.

A good ride, though it will probably scare small children. Some nice fire effects, and the shark looks pretty realistic. The boat captains are usually quite good too. Overall, a good ride that is worth at least one ride.

This is great fun. The shark looks fake but thats beside the point. Hes so relentless with his attacks, and the surrounding effects (mostly fire) are piled on so high, that the ride generate a really good atmosphere. The best thing about this ride is that it never lets up. Theres always something to grab your attention, whether its the shark or a massive explosion. The tour guides are usually pretty good and even a bad one wont detract from your enjoyment too much. A must see and the best of the "original" Universal attractions (including Earthquake and Kongfrontation, may it rest in peace.)

This ride really rises and falls depending on the tour guide. If he or she is really into it, the ride will be ten times better.

Fun, but doesnt live up to the image that Universal is trying to create as the technological park. Its a classic though and is a must-ride with a short line. Waits can get long though. Its fun just to ride on the boat, but the action isnt as thrilling as expected. The animatronics arent that great either.

Just an average ride. The shark was corny looking, but I also have to remember its pretty old now. What I did like alot was how there was an actor on the boat. Definatly made it seem just a bit realistic.

Not a thrill ride. More like an outdoor dark ride. Its comparable to the Jungle cruise at the Magic Kingdom. The sharks are fake looking, but how real can they could be since their robots that need to be submerged in water 24 hours a day? The explosion scene is great too. Thats the biggest fire effect Ive ever seen in a theme park, although it is way too hot and is sometimes painful. Most of the time you stay mostly dry on this attaction, with the one exception where I was riding in the front row, on the left side of the boat, in the last scene, a big wave of water came over the boat and soaked me, and ruined my $600 camera (under warranty though!). You have been worned of that seat!

Dont these people know what "update" means? i hated this ride. It was boring as heckthe only thing that mad it decent was the guide, but the shark looks corny, and its already failing and rusty as heck.

Classic movie, so-so ride. The shark is neat even if it does look kinda fake. Ironically, this is the hottest ride at USF - they really go to town with the fire effects. Worth it if the line isnt too long.
