    An Amazing Ride!!

    This ride is the best ride at Universal Theme Park!! It's just like the movie and it is so much fun!! Biff Tannen, from the trilogy, steals the time machine but the "Doc" is locked up, so it's up to the audience to steal it back. Definitely one to ride over and over again!!!!!

    An ultimate experience a must ride at least once!

    "The Back to the Future" Ride everyone must experience at least once in their life, as I had the pleasure several years ago while on vacation with my parents in Florida at Universial Studios. You actually never move but it's like you ride as pictures and images and 3D images come at you you feel like it's actual time travel it's neat don't close your eyes you might miss something! It's fun and clever as the motion carries you thru space seeing sight after sight it's a whole new dimension! From a great movie comes a great ride you want be displeased it's fun and enjoyment at least ride it once! Universial Studios lives up to it's word you do ride the movies!

    Yes, The BTTF ride is closing (March 30th, 2007).

    Yes, The BTTF ride is closing this month, next Friday in fact (March 30th, 2007). Luckily, i was in orlando last week and got to ride it a couple more times. i also got some stuff from the store there, now i have a couple model deloreans!! yes, this was an awesome ride...its sad that they are taking it down. But i guess it is old, and they're gonna put something new and "updated" in. i asked around, and even the people that worked at the BTTF ride and store didn't know what was going to replace it. I guess its kind of like how they took the King Kong ride out and replaced it with the Mummy roller-coaster. its a bummer though, back to the future was classic. and the ride was sweet too!

    Awesome and Fast-Paced!!

    Step into the DeLorean, set the clock back to 1955, and hang on for you life!

    "Back to the Future...the Ride" at Universal Studios, is based n the movie series "Back to the Future." Biff Tannen has stolen the time machine, and the audience along with Doc Brown, must recover it. In this fast paced adventure, audiences sit in a DeLorean and hang on for their life as they fly. Can you stop Biff???

    I first rode "Back to the Future...The Ride" in March 1997 in Orlando, and was amazed by the action. I like "Back to the Future," so I was excited about riding this. The bad part: I was crammed between my mother and father, and 5 years ago, at age 14, I weighed 117 pounds at 5'4". This may not seem bad, but I was smashing into my dad the whole time, and my parents said because of my side and tendency to slide around they did not ride with me again. When I returned in April '99, I weighed about 8 pounds more and rode only with my brother I held on tight and only slid around a few times.

    This is an amazing ride that will keep the audience excite all the way to the end. When in Orlando, please ride "Back to the Future." You will really enjoy it.

      As you enter Hill Valley town square and approach the Courthouse, look down the alley to the right of the courthouse to see a giant styrofoam cup of coffee accidentally left on the miniature set.
    • Quotes

      Biff Tannen: Doc, Doc! My flux capacitor's out, Doc! Help me, help! Hey please, Doc, help me! Help! Doc I'm heading for a waterfall. It's a LAVA-fall! Please, Doc, help me! Please bump me!

    • Crazy credits
      Because this is presented as a ride "experience" and not a film, no credits are shown on screen. However, "directed by Douglas Trumball", "Music by Alan Silvestri", "Special Effects by ILM" and several other credits are posted on a plaque near the exit to the ride.
    • Alternate versions
      Briefly, the Pepsi sign in 2015 Hill Valley was replaced by a Toyota logo.
