The theming here is great but the ride itself is a little underwhelming. I wouldn’t really consider this a thrill ride because as soon as it gets going it stops for another 3D scene.
Pros:
Not so scary for younger kids and really immersiveCons:

I think this is one of the best rides all around. The queue is so good, the preshow is great. The elevator really feels like you are moving, it shocks me every time. Compared to the Forbidden Journey, this one doesn't make me near as sick. It may make my head hurt just a tad from all of the tugging around, but not motion sick and usually goes away soon. I really love how this has some rollercoaster aspects trickled in with the screens.
Pros:
Queue, concept is coolCons:
May give you a slight headacheReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 09/30/2021

Escape from Gringotts is a thrilling entertaining ride. Although I made the mistake to wait 4 hours in line for it.
Pros:
Thrilling entertaining funCons:
Don’t wait extremely long for it I would say 2.5 hours would be a Max amount of time to wait otherwise it feels not worth itReviewed by anagram Review Date: 09/27/2021

Such a fun ride! One of my favorites at Universal. The queue is amazing, and the ride is so thrilling. I love that this is a mix of a coaster but has various other effects as well. Even non-Harry Potter fans can appreciate this ride.
Pros:
Fantastic theming.Cons:
Line can be very long. Express pass is definitely recommended for this one!Reviewed by Moosemanatee Review Date: 09/15/2021

The bank! Walking into the bank feels just like when Harry walks in in the Sorcerer's Stone! It is magical and feels real. This was my first ride in Wizarding World and I somewhat expected it to be disappointing because could anything live up to how I imagined the Wizarding world in my mind when reading the books? It is an excellent ride and the queue is so lifelike. Universal outdid themselves! Amazing.
