    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.

    Really clever ride, well done.

    Stars: Christopher Lloyd.

    Biff has stolen Doc Brown's car and we have to ram him in another prototype version of the Delorean. We go through time and see a lot of interesting sites. The safety video for the ride shows Biff fooling the security guards and imprisoning Doc Brown. Doc gives the safety spiel and we go in to the room with the ride. You enter a copy of the Delorean with screens on it to see Biff along the ride. It's really fun and kind of a trademark of Universal Studios Hollywood now. The ride itself lasts around 4 minutes long.

    Great ride!

    Fun ride!

    Well, I just recently went on the ride and it was very thrilling. The line is not as long as it used to be since the ride is old and other rides like Jaws, Twister, and ET get attention, so I suggest going and waiting because you have to wait for everything at Universal Studious. Kongfrontation is the worst line. Anyway, the ride was thrilling and I suggest to sit up front.

    That one still rocks

    The Back To The Future Ride still truly rocks after all these years.Though it´s one of the older attractions of the Universal Studios and it isn´t as high tech as Terminator 2000,it still amazes you and it´s worthwhile to wait 20 minutes to get in.

    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!

      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.

      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.
