Rather poor show in my opinion. The audio quality was good, but the images were very blurry throughout and the plot wasnt all that great. It was pretty long though and good to escape from the outdoor elements.

Meh... timidly fun describes this best. Kinda off the beaten path, and in an odd weeded location, but the scenery is alright. Little ones really enjoy this, and greatly satisfies their dino cravings. More water features would be much appreciated, however. Air blowing in your face has very little resemblence to H2O.

I must have caught this ride on a very bad day because it was really poor. There was no 3D glasses, but the screen seemed blurry like it was a 3D movie. The motions of the vehicle just seem very random with very little matchup with what is really happening on the screen. The seats are not comfortable. I did like the preshow that sets up the lost dinosaur, but the simulator portion of it was not good. If you are there, go ahead and give it a shot, but I think you are going to have similar disappointment as I have.

This ride was alot more painful than the one at Six Flags Great America in the big theater. The show was also NOT in 3D.

This was really rather sub-par. I didnt find the show very entertaining, the simulator was overly rough, and it just felt like a plaid out concept. Oh well, it got me out of the rain and it could have been worse.

Maybe Im nuts but this is not a sequel. This is the same as the ride I watched at SFGAdv a couple of years ago. While the story is still entertaining I prefered it more in 3D in theater seating format.

One of the best simulators Ive ever been on. I was skeptical at first. Dispite bad reviews, I had always been a bit of a fan of Mission: Bermuda Triangle and I was sad to see it go. However, this ride is just magnificent. The themeing for the building is top-notch. They utilized the M:BT building and landscape wonderfully. The old submarine that say outside M:BT was repainted and given wheels so that it looks just like the ride vehicles you supposedly ride in during the movie. The 4-D effects are outstanding, from the mosquitos to the water. Pterodactyls flap their wings into your car and fill it with puffs of air! Everything is just so well done. Like M:BT, they usually only run one pod, which, even with a short line, means a 10 minute wait. However, youre entertained by a large screen showing "Historical Archives" which is actually the video used in the "Dino Island" simulator (The original... Notice that this is the sequel.) The queue also has dinosaurs contained in vaults that roar occasionally and the use of the old Bayou overlook tower is genius as a welcome sign. I highly recommend this. Its easy to miss and hard to find, but a must-ride.
