You pays your money and you takes you choice... but personally, I thought this was excellent. The storyline was well done, with a little-known movie being clearly presented, some cute humor, and possibly the smoothest animatronics at WDW. The ride itself is well done: good length, nice build-up to the climax, a few surprising drops before the big one. The final drop on Ripsaw Falls is definitely better, but Splash Mountains was pretty good. Id give this a 10 except for 1 thing: not wet enough! I rode it in the front seat, back seat, middle... only minor splashing. Ripsaw Falls front seat left me so wet my underwear started shrinking. Still n all, Splash Mt is quite good. And right next to Thunder Mt RR, so get fastpass for 1, then wait in line for the other.
