Revenge of the Mummy: The Ride

I'm from England and went to Universal studios with great expectations, but i was sadly disappointed. I thought that Island of Adventure was fantastic.

The Mummy ride was a huge disappointment, my friend i was with told me it was so scary and i would be petrified...and i had seen a video on how they made the ride and i was expecting it to be one of the best rides i had ever been on.

I have to admit i was more scared of the passage way into the ride that the ride itself. Even though the effects and fire were good there was something missing. For the amount it cost to build they should have made it longer and yet still faster.

I would advise going on it just to say "i've been on that ride" as it seems to be very popular for many people but don't get your hopes up...you're hair won't be on end.

First of all its not a movie it clearly says "Revenge of the Mummy: THE RIDE." Second it is a really cool ride. There are 2 versions: one in California and one in Orlando. The California version isn't as good buy the ride in Florida is AWESOME! It combines CGI effects, a dark ride, authentic looking Egyptain tombs, and an indoor coaster. It goes 45 mph and its biggest drop is 26 ft. but it feels faster and bigger. The queue for the ride explains that there's is a little story (nothing serious) as you walk on the pretend set of THE MUMMY 3 and continue into an Egyptain tomb. It truly is a ride like no other. Its the coolest thing to come to Universal Orlando Resort since The Islands of Adventure.

Oh my god what a superb ride ... i went to Florida in 2005 and went on it and then i came back for the following 2 summers and it never got old ... I've been on this ride approximately 27 times and i still love it ... all of the film is great and funny at the end it all amounts to make a flawless ride and the guy who gave it 1 star is clearly either blind or too poor to go to Florida.

Although this review isn't about the ride the movie made the ride so much better and assuming the workers got the timing of the carts right the film made everything seem much darker and in parts like when the ride speeds up and you are sucked into the mummy's mouth the movie interacts with the ride and makes it so much better its unreal.

I was looking forward to this ride, and was horribly disappointed.

And I am very easily amused at roller coaster and amusement park rides.

The roller coaster part was just okay - and that was all of about 30 seconds of a 90 second ride.

It was visually dull and poorly executed.

It was trying desperately to be like a mixture of the far superior Indiana Jones and Space Mountain rides and Disneyland, and failed in every aspect.

It was not thrilling or exciting in the least.

I had no idea it was supposed to be a roller coaster. I don't know if the ride is exactly the same on the West Coast as it is on the East coast, but the whole ride on the East Coast is all roller coaster. You watch the movie stuff as you wait in line. Of course most of the roller coaster ride is in the dark, but I think that adds to the suspense of the ride because you have no idea where you're going. It's kinda like the Space Mountain ride at Disney. I have nothing else to say, but supposedly I'm supposed to keep typing so I'll just type nonsense sense I've finished saying what it is that I want to say. Well that's about it. So go visit Universal Studios and go ride the Revenge of the Mummy.
