I just cant believe how lackluster this ride is. I went to Universal Orlando when they first opened and there was talk of the new JAWS ride they were building. With Kong (then fun), Back to the Future, and Earthquake in place ... I had decent hopes. This ride is DUD though. Too many people on each of the boats and the ride just isnt scary at all. My recommendation is to scrap the current scenerio and re-use the props and scenery in JAWS log flume or river-rapids style ride. Until then, this is a little more than Disneys Jungle Cruise with the shark replacing the hippos and WITHOUT the charm of Disney Family Magic.
