If they added a soundtrack of background music, it would heighten the feel of the ride. The growling and roaring gets to be a little annoying. It's too much of the same thing. And the loud sounds of the hydraulics need to be muffled somehow. Hearing that hissing sound makes it feel cheap even though it's obvious they put a lot of effort into creating this ride. It's actually kind of long, so they have plenty of opportunities to switch up the scenery slightly to make it more interesting. As it stands, 21 is not justifiable. For a small family, I think they would be disappointed. Kids would love it, but whoever paid would feel cheated. But if they tweaked it here and there, it would probably be worth it.

Having been on the JP ride at Universal Hollywood, it is clear that they drew inspiration from that with the brachiosaurus at the beginning, the baby stegosaurus on the rock, and the T-Rex at the end. There were likely even more allusions, but I was kind of checking in and out, not really paying attention closely enough to see the others. This absolutely feels like the ride version of a mock buster where they obviously take the concept or similar name of a popular film and then try to capitalize on that.

Aren't animatronics supposed to be 'animated'? I've seriously seen more character movement in local haunted houses than what is on this ride.
This looks like a 'proof of concept' walkthrough vs. a fully operational attraction that pays guests 21 to waste 6 minutes of their lives in order to give feedback so it can be worked on for another year before opening to the public.
Why are theme parks failing? Consider this video exhibit A.

As someone who loves dilapidated animatronics, this was an awesome ride for me. One of the t-rexes has a jaw that's completely broken and frayed. It looks so freaking scary! If you look closely, one of the brachiosaurs has exposed wiring wrapping down its legs. However, if you are actually looking for a fun family activity, this is way too expensive. Just go buy tickets to Dollywood if you're in the area and enjoy their rides instead.

This great videography makes it look MUCH better than it is. In real life, most everything is broken and awkwardly placed. Even worse, you can see back rooms with work lights and ladders. The boat is very uncomfortable and shifty. Such wasted potential. Go the the Islands and ride SkyFly.

I think it has potential. The animatronics are actually pretty good. The lighting, audio, story (or lack thereof, and immersion could use much love. I won't pick it apart too much because I can see plenty of effort went into it. That said, I would pass this up.

Is a meal for a family of 4 included? If so then you might get your money s worth for the time you spent on the ride. There is no story or logic of how they are presented. Most are biologically inaccurate, as well as from different epochs.

I like how the background scenery gets cheesier and cheesier as the ride progresses, as if they gradually ran out of money building it. And it's weird how the boat keeps stopping. I guess otherwise it would cost about 7 a minute to ride it.

Not at all worth 21. With all the advancements in technology and special effects, you'd think rides like this could be a little more realistic. Seeing an Exit sign behind one of the dinos kind of takes you out of it pretty quick.

no i wouldnt, not enough interaction with the boat; as if the dino's would just stand there when a boat would pass by; ) A head turn, leaning forward or something like that would have been nice

Park Owner: Is that a compressed air bottle in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Designer: WUUuuuu?
Park Owner: Just crank up the grunt noises, they'll never notice. right?

The atmosphere and immersion of the ride looks good. But I didn't see anything different or special, or one thing that stands out to make it better than similar dark rides of this nature.

I can only imagine sometime in the future in 2020's they will update this even more greater with the animatronics and special effects, who knows they will add in screens in the back ground.

Not good enough for the price. Don't see how this attraction will be profitable enough to last very long especially since it appears to be a stand alone and not in a theme park.

There's no way you could invest in this, see the finished product, and be anything close to happy. It's like a 9 yr old designed a very expensive ride.

If they improved the experience and the animatronics then yeah it could be a 21 ride. I wouldn't pay anything less than 5 for it right now.

Thats so gay. You can see the exit signs and the roof and everything really just seems out of place and cheaply set up. Its worth 2. 10
