If you want to know what it feels like to be shaken by a dog then ride this ride. Unnecessarily rough for no reason. Roughest ride ive been on. I wanted it to be over as soon as it started.

Pros:

Artifacts in line were cool.

Cons:

Storyline was weak. Gives you whiplash. Animatronis were meh.

This one is pretty intense for the little ones. We made the mistake of bringing our littles onto this as their very first WDW ride ever. Scary at times; but it was fun now that my wife and I did it by ourselves.

Pros:

Fun ride, great themes

Cons:

Very intense, ride is shakey

This is one of the rougher rides I experienced at any Disney park. The sound and the jostling is a bit much and the concept is lacking in my opinion. The ride system could be utilized far better than this. Not for most kids in my opinion, even if they meet the height requirement.

Pros:

It is a notable ride and the queue is themed well.

Cons:

very rough (don't go if you have back or neck issues), the theme and story are lacking.

Worst ride at Disney World!!!!

Pros:

No line

Cons:

Beyond jerky, it feels like you will get thrown out of the car at any given time. You will also likely injure your neck, back or both. The ride wasn’t even entertaining, we just wanted it to be over the whole time.

It is a very thrilling and dark ride with loud audio and larger than life Dino animatronics but in recent years has really been watered down

Way back when it was Countdown to Extinction the ride was even wilder…they toned it down after Dinosaur came out and the ride was renamed but it was equally as fun to ride…

However the last couple times I rode it it felt boring…they removed two of the giant Carnotarus figures…one by the photo stop and the head at the end…and now you just see a head by the photo stop that isn’t even hidden

I get kids might be scared but that is why you read ride descriptions before riding…Indy has more thrills than this

There were also strobe effects that were removed but those are understandable with people having medical conditions that can be triggered…that said they never replaced them with anything so the whole time travel effects they use to create are just gone

If the line is short and you like dark loud and jerky rides along with Dino’s give it a try…otherwise head under the giant green Dino and head over the bridge to Everest

Pros:

Thrilling adventure to the past for the most part Fun facts from Bill Nye while you wait in the queue Unlike Indy the vehicle is actually rolling along creating a wild ride

Cons:

Loud and dark which could scare some riders The scare factor has been reduced in terms of the main predator and surprise sightings The ride is bumpy and jerky…while fun not a fit for anyone with back or neck issues

If you consider darkness theming then this ride is for you. The animatronics barely move, you can't see anything. They took a great ride from another park and cheaped out on the theming. IF there isn\\'t a line and its hot out it might be worth a ride.

Pros:

Phylicia Rashad, air conditioning

Cons:

Rough, Lackluster animatronics and theming

When Dinosaur first opened, I LOVED it. As a big fan of dinosaurs (how cliché, I know), the theming and animatronic dinosaurs thrilled me. As time has gone on and I’ve been on more recently, I have to say that Dinosaur has gone down a notch a bit. Still a fan, but not quite as much as I had once been.

Great things: The animatronics are fun, especially for Dino lovers (though they can be scary for the youngins). That last minute Carnotaurus is fun!

Not so great: The bumpy style of this ride is where is gets a lot of its thrills, but is also a bit jarring, especially if you’re not a young whippersnapper. Also, it seems overly bumpy at times, as sometimes you just want to calmly drive by some cool dinos, ya know? Again, I get that this is the central system of the ride, but it can be a bit tough.

Pros:

Great theming and fun animatronics GREAT for dinosaur lovers, especially kiddos (if they’re not scared)

Cons:

Bumpiness can be a bit tough
