I'd say this is the upper echelon of the screen rides, which Universal has WAY too many of in my opinion. I enjoyed the outside portion of the ride and the guides are pretty entertaining. The Kong animatronic is impressive.

Pros:

Kong animatronic, the outdoor portion,

Cons:

Screens, and a lot of just shaking/pushing you back and forth

Worst ‘thrill ride’ in Universal. If you hate screen rides, skip this one.

Pros:

Shortish

Cons:

Screens, screens, screens, screens

Fun ride--though not as fun as you might expect it to be. It's hard to pinpoint what's "missing." The queue is really well done, so take your time there. Height requirement is relatively low, so if you have a child who doesn't get scared easily, it's nice that he/she can ride.

Pros:

great queue

Cons:

more screens

Decent dark/simulator ride. I like dinosaurs so I didn't hate parts of the story line, but overall the story felt out of place. The ride itself isn't terrible, and Kong at the end is what really makes the ride worth it.

Pros:

Kong

Cons:

Ride feels short Story doesn't make sense/isn't interesting Kong isn't mainstream anymore

They honestly did a pretty good job with this ride. The animatronic at the end is pretty amazing.

Pros:

the projection screens are pretty great, and they did an awesome jobe on the animatronic

Cons:

getting sprayed with water when you least expect it

I think is a must do. I enjoy the story it tells with the moving vehicle. I didn't get motion sickness on this ride

Pros:

King Kong feels like it's right in front of you

Cons:

A lot of moving around in large vehicle.

After how scary and dark the ride que is, I was expecting more from the ride. It’s more of a screen ride and can be hard to keep up with as screens are on both sides of the ride vehicle. However the animatronic Kong at the end is worth it

Pros:

Animatronic Kong at the end. The que is also worth a walk through in its own

Cons:

Hard to see all of storyline
