    Note: This ride is a storytelling with animatronic puppets of how Shrek & Fiona met. Hence why the animatronics throughout the ride looks like puppets.

Scenes either spin around or they show scenes from the movie. Cheap, lazy. Hope people don't pay a lot for this junk.

    @micycles1200 6 ปีที่แล้ว +427

    That's really weird. They seems like they really tried to tell most of the story and then had to cut out a lot of important parts because they were running out of room. Why did the castle rescue scene take so long but there was no tournament? Why did we all of a sudden just end up almost right in the wedding? Why did the swamp scene seem to take so long? Why was there no All Star? This sounds like a great concept. Who doesn't want a Shrek dark ride? However, really poor execution... and why was it a puppet show instead of just a story?

      @@Emiltonin Actually, as odd as this is, and how much I just sort of bashed it, I will say that I would take this over Shrek 4D. I would love to see a dark ride at Universal about Shrek (or... really anything else). The first time I went on Shrek 4D, I think I was more dumbfounded about that than this. All I remember from it is Donkey sneezing on you, which is really freaking disgusting, the seats moved slightly, and the pre-show was actually a little funny - it almost reminded me a little of Medieval Times in the castle. I like dark rides a lot because physical set pieces, even bad ones, are more interesting to look at than screens, especially in a theme park. So, yeah, I think this is much better than Shrek 4D... but then again, anything is better than Shrek 4D. I think the technology is put to much better use on something like Minion Mayhem or The Simpsons Ride.

    Okay, I've watched a lot of dark ride ride-throughs of these Dubai parks and I have to say -- this is one of the BETTER ones. Yes, a lot of wasted real estate, but I like that there was a narrative idea that made the ride unique (Shrek and Fiona putting on a puppet show, and then the majority of the ride is us going through a large version of that puppet show). For a Dubai ride, there was a lot of character movement. It's like they took someone who was an assistant to a Disney Imagineer and made that person their rides director. On the surface, it looks like something that would be at a Disney Park.... just not quite as good.

    • @brt7721

      I apologize in advance for possible errors in the text, I am from Kazakhstan and write mainly in Russian, but after translating your text I was a little indignant, A lot of the Disneyland rides are really fast, but they make up for it with good animatronics or something. But I think that all trips are beautiful in their own way, and the fact that trips to motion gate are also beautiful good in their own way, but Disneyland is underestimated , All these good trips have only one thing, the emotion of happiness and immersion, although many comments write that they are dissatisfied with the trip, but I didn’t notice all this when I was driving along this road, so I really I think that you can’t compare trips and talk about their weaknesses, because they are unique in their own way :)

    These rides feel so weird lots of space the Animatronics look different scene to scene some just static just standing. This one seems little bit better than a few over in Dubai lol

    Regardless of the comments, I thought this was quite well done. Granted it was a bit empty and it could do with more BUT it told a story had an interesting split track system at certain points and you wasn't rushed through (while some of disney rides may look better, they are also much shorter and you are rushed through the story).

    I wonder what changes and updates would be made if it was built at Universal. It’s a long dark ride, which was neat, but I feel like they could have done more with each scene and the animatronics.

    This only proves that without question Disney is the Ruling Monarch of dark rides. Especially trackless. In all Disney trackless rides you never see the tracks in the floor which adds to the magic of a mysteriously moving ride. You don't know where your ride is taking you. That's part of the fun.This is just pathetic. Put together by people who had a vague concept of what these dark rides are all about. Also put together by people who simply don't have a lot of money. As someone else pointed out there is just way too much wasted space. Loooooong rooms filled with the bare minimum. And just cheap looking. I'd be embarrassed! Also, too much dialogue going on. People don't have the attention span to listen to that story. I didn't even catch the whole thing because you don't care about what they're saying as much as seeing what's going on around you.
    If you go there, I suggest skipping this mess.

      Benji Smith I think the 'track' is there because of the constant wear and tear from the heavy ride vehicles wheels. If they're always going in the same area every day for the entirety of park hours, there's probs gonna be some damage to the floor. Most trackless rides actually spend money to get floors that won't do that, but uh. **cough** -clearly this ride has some serious issues involving spending money for quality things- **cough**
