Looks much more intimidating than it actually is. Enjoy the view!

User ID: Foxy15   Thrill: 3  Theme: 2  Overall: 2 (2/8/2008)
A lesser Tower of Terror without the darkness, story, and special effect. Better to spend your time somewhere else. Lines can get VERY long.

Alot of fun! I love just being launched up so quickly and seeing the whole park! It's a Blast!

User ID: plus4db   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/15/2006)
"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!" The tension during the wait is unbelievable! Like Christmas eve! "wheeeee!"

User ID: darcy-becker   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (8/26/2005)
Not bad but like most of the rides at Paradise Pier it just lacks the Disney magic.

User ID: HappiestGirlonEarth   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (7/23/2005)
Hate the sheilds and it should be longer. Fun ride overall, though!

User ID: wade490   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (5/4/2005)
Rode it back to back twice. Great fun. Claustophobic daughter could not go on ride due to the shields. Must be a liability issue....

User ID: gabrielle2106   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/17/2005)
Now that's fun!!

User ID: skaterfreakboi   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: Unrated (12/7/2003)
\/ God get over it. Its just a ride. If Its something you dont want to see then dont come to the park or dont ride it

User ID: Alex Disney   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (10/22/2003)
I dont want wanna these thing at any Disney theme park!

User ID: ChristopherRobin   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (10/22/2003)
Great view. Great Fun!!!

User ID: luverofdisney   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (5/19/2003)
Finally dared to try on last trip (March 2003). Enjoyed it once the initial shock went away. Needs to be longer - would definitely go again and again!

User ID: Brer Bunny   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/26/2003)
I love it! It has Made it into the top ten in my book!

User ID: benj47   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/15/2003)
I love the sensation at the top! I rode 24 times throughout the day. The line was only 5 min when I went. It's fun to watch the scared people right before the launch. It's not tall enough and the scream shields are stupid.

User ID: videoogamer10   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/13/2003)
A good ride, but not as good as its neighboring park Knott's Berry Farms' Supreme Scream. But I love the bell idea. It really makes you seem like you are on a California Coast Boardwalk.

User ID: skaterfreakboi   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (11/24/2002)
yeah the bell rocks


User ID: Skully   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: Unrated (11/22/2002)
I love the bell idea.The person who thought of that was a genious.

User ID: skaterfreakboi   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (11/22/2002)
the scream shilds are stupid part of the fun of walking by a thrill ride on a midway is hearing the screams as you pass by and the shields just kill the efect but still a good ride


User ID: Skully   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: Unrated (11/2/2002)
This ride looks fun, but the scream shields are just stupid.I like the theme, but the ride itself is a common ride at many other parks, and small compared to some of them.It only has the launch and no drops, but still great.GO S&S POWER.

User ID: skaterfreakboi   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (10/10/2002)
WOW! i just went on it and i want to go agean!!! what a rush im going on next week (im a pass holder)


User ID: skaterfreakboi   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: Unrated (9/11/2002)
havent done it but lookin forword to it

User ID: cgess   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (8/29/2002)
If you're looking for a good rush, this ride will give it to you. It's too bad it's over so fast though. It leaves you wanting more. This ride also has a single rider line which allows you to bypass long lines.

User ID: the Disney Kid   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (7/9/2002)
the ride is good. could be bigger.

User ID: aurora777   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (7/3/2002)
A lot of fun, but SCARY!! My 8 yr. old who rode with me was VERY pale a long while afterwards.

User ID: goldenstate5   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (7/2/2002)
Hmmm...I rated this a two because I hate these kinds of attractions, but it does look nice...

User ID: DisneylandFreak   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (5/30/2002)
I wish it was longer.

User ID: Disneyland_child   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (5/8/2002)
Riding with no shoes is an ultimate ride!!

User ID: DCAGuy2   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (3/31/2002)
Rocked my socks.

User ID: 092458   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: Unrated (2/11/2002)
A good ride but is it really Disney?

User ID: monodug   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/11/2002)
AWSOME!!!!!!!!

User ID: Gallagher   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/10/2002)
The sensation at the top is a lot of fun.

User ID: DisneyClint   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (2/4/2002)
It's short, but so is Knott's Supreme Scream. I'm scared to death of that one, but Maliboomer I can handle, since it shoot you up instead of bring you up slowly and blasting you down. I wish the spit guards weren't there but I guess they have to be. It's a real screamer!

User ID: senorsmith   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/22/2001)
Sit on the lake side to see a great view of Disneyland.

User ID: Farbauti   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (4/19/2001)
The lift-up is great. But it's no free-falling as the seats are pushed/pulled down. So there's no real feeling of weightlessness.

User ID: gamecubefreek   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/18/2001)
THIS RIDE IS SWEET! Awesome, especially if you let go and stick your feet out ride as it gets to the top.

User ID: superstarloony   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (4/13/2001)
A fun ride, though the scream shields make you feel imprisoned. Single riders line makes this an even greater value!

User ID: Coheteboy   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (4/12/2001)
It's fun, but not quite awesome having been released in 2001 and having a thrill factor of the 1920's. Thank goodness for the single rider line... for I won't wait more than 20 minutes for this one. 2/4

User ID: Disneytom   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (4/12/2001)
They can theme it a littlebit more (cover all sides!), but it is a fun ride!

User ID: Mrbobsledrider   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (4/12/2001)
Not tall enough! Fun, but not that exciting.

User ID: Irishman4000   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (4/1/2001)
Cool ride I only wish that it was taller


User ID: disneynut111   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (3/23/2001)
Great ride, better if it were taller though. I loved the anticipation before you get lauched!

User ID: MuppetVision   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (3/16/2001)
This ride was definitely a blast! A fun and enjoyable ride. The best part about it is that you never know when the ride is gonna launch!

User ID: AlyciaMabutas   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (3/12/2001)
I braved the Maliboomer! The send-off is fun, but once you are on, the up-and-down isn't scary. Gives a nice view of DCA or Disneyland, depending which tower you are on.

User ID: DoodleDuck   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (3/10/2001)
OK ride..not tall enough..short line only.


User ID: tsullivent   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (3/6/2001)
This was a good attraction. Not really a person who likes these types of rides, but it is not as high as most.

User ID: Imagineerguy   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (3/5/2001)
The best adrenaline rush in the park. However, it would be better if you went up slowly like Supreme Scream.

User ID: lindsy   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 3 (2/25/2001)
This is a supreme example of how Disney can take an "off the shelf" ride and turn it Disney! The sound effects (with Goofy's ya-ha-ha-hooey! at the top) alone make it superb. However, the draw back is the plastic shield over your face. When you scream, only you can hear yourself, so you tend to feel stupid (or at least I did) when you let loose.

User ID: dlport   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: Unrated (2/23/2001)
Too chicken to ride myself, I have heard good things from friends. Most people apparently love the anticipation, including the slow bounce (the system is actually weighing and balancing the car) before you launch.

User ID: tsantacruz   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/12/2001)
Very Fun. The anticipation before the launch was great. Also the airtime at the top of the tower was fun.

User ID: trent24   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 2 (2/12/2001)
The only thrill of the ride came from waiting to launch otherwise it is a short uneventful ride. (Knott's Supreme Scream is better)

User ID: Neologos   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/11/2001)
I wish it was bigger but it was fun.

User ID: Imagineerguy   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/7/2001)
Good, but would be better if it were as high as Knott's


User ID: retlawfan   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/7/2001)
A very fun ride. A definate must! The single rider line is very cool. It probably cut my wait time in half. The(Sorry) "Barf Shield" is kind of annoying, but is probably needed to protect everyone waiting in line below and along the walkways.

User ID: Disneyexpert   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/5/2001)
The shot up is too much fun. I liked it when the ride operator started a countdown from 10 and shot the thing off at about 7. The anticipation is the worst part as they toy with you by slowing bouncing you at the bottom before lift-off. Note that there is a single-rider line if you are interested. Keep left.

User ID: boscal   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 1 (2/4/2001)
The "Scream shield" in front of your face is weird. Knotts is better.

User ID: gsvdave   Thrill: Unrated  Theme: Unrated  Overall: 4 (2/3/2001)
First up and down are fun but goes too quickly. Weird air barrier.
