Amazing Theming with lots of thrill

Cons:

To some the seats are uncomfortable

A classic attraction from start to finish. You're in launched into the dark for a zipping, twisting, turning, up-down journey through space. Are you going left? Right? You just don't know until it happens. There are two tracks and both have different feels to them. If you're prone to back aches, this one may not be for you.

Pros:

A classic ride in the dark.

Cons:

It may leave you feeling aches and pains from the jostling around. The interior line queue is deceptively long.

I never expect much from this ride, I'm not sure why... but I ALWAYS have a great time laughing and screaming on this ride. It's longer than you expect and that's always nice on a coaster. Big Thunder has the nostalgic aspect and is my favorite mountain, but this is a very close second!

Pros:

Classic coaster

Cons:

Nothing

LOVE LOVE LOVE this ride!! I grew up loving the space mountain over at disneyland and it was always my favorite ride as a kid so when my family went a month ago I was stoked to ride this. I really enjoyed this version and I think I might like it even more than the one over at disneyland. It’s more thrilling and so much fun. We went at night during the fireworks show with absolutely no line and got to ride twice in a row!! It was such a cool experience and I definitely recommend this ride for all 🙂

Pros:

thrilling, it takes your picture, indoors and a great place to cool off, you shouldn’t ever have to wait too long for this ride

Cons:

could be too thrilling for some and can cause motion sickness

This ride is iconic as they come! As a kid, Space Mountain was the pinnacle of roller coasters for me. As an adult, I still look forward to riding this on every trip to MK! It does throw you around a lot with sudden bumps and drops (think turbulence on steroids), but man, is it worth it shooting through "space" in the dark. This ride even has special overlays for holidays and after-hours events, which makes it even more fun!!

Pros:

Iconic, thrilling, overlays for holidays/special events

Cons:

Line can get long especially when outdoor attractions close for weather, littles under 44 inches can't ride!

I'm going to preface this review by admitting that I really do not like rollercoasters in general. That said, this is actually not that bad of a coaster. I would ride it at least once a trip. Its a pretty good mouse trap coaster but because it is so dark, it does feel a lot faster and wilder than a traditional mouse trap. The ride is a little rough, but I think the main reason for me that it feels so rough is the ride vehicle. The ride car is single line seating and fairly small/low to the ground. I'm SHORT (5'4) and I felt like I didn't have enough leg room.

Pros:

Good mouse trap coaster, great theming

Cons:

Ride vehicle small, can make ride feel rough.

Who says you need loops to be a great coaster? As usual, the theming is simple but excellent, and the fact that you are going at a certain speed in the dark is exhilarating and never gets old. This is an older ride so it might be a little jerky, but otherwise nothing else to really complain about. Go on it and have a blast!

Pros:

Thrilling roller coaster in the dark, twists and turns, simple but great theming

Cons:

A bit jerky but it’s an older ride and kinda adds to the charm.

I love this ride the theme is amazing however on my recent trip September 7th 2021 I found it to be really rough. Usually this ride is fairly smooth but it was rather rough. Still highly recommend the ride nevertheless.

Pros:

Atmosphere amazing

Cons:

Rough ride

From the music as you enter the queue, to the excitement of boarding your rocket, to the feeling of zipping through the stars, this is the quintessential Disney attraction and certainly the best version of Space Mountain in the world. Sitting on the front row is arguably the best experience you can have on Disney property.

Pros:

The atmosphere, the thrill of not knowing what comes next, the comfortable ride vehicle (that is nowhere near as rickety as you have been led to believe), feeling like you're the only person on it if you're front row.

Cons:

Technically it's nowhere near as thrilling as Everest, Rock n' Roller or the Universal coasters.
