No complaints from me, more totally feeling sorry for her. Poor girl! I don't really blame the mom either because this is a new genre. I don't think she had any idea what she was walking into!
Spectacular. Really really amazing. First time in my life that I was just amazed by technology and show. The ride is pretty much perfection. The scale of the thing is massive, yet is remarkably detailed. It adds a more clear plot to the classic Pirates experience. Hats off for the team behind it. The best films have moments that leave you saying "I did not see that coming!" This ride prompted just those sorts of thoughts.
If there's anything I would say to help a video watcher get an idea of what it's like, watch a video of Soarin' and compare it to what you remember from Soarin'. The video may have the details, but lacks the scale. That's what any Pirates video would lack. Just think massive.
The ride has made me rethink all other Disney rides, but I'd be remiss not to mention my experience on PotC Classic since. It held up remarkably well for an attraction that was designed in 1967. Battle for the Sunken Treasure takes an existing formula and moves it forward. The Classic invented it. It amazes me to think about how much they got right. So while I celebrate the new, hats off also for the original will which remains an excellent attraction in its own right. The more lighthearted last scenes remain legendary.
I think domestic fans have a lot to look forward for in the Prison Escape attraction. It should be great!
Nice Review. Sounds awesome! By prison escape your referring to the Star Wars battle escape attraction right?
