This is easily my least favorite of the three Potter attractions. The screens look terrible, the story is nonsense and ultimately it's just a bit boring. We waited about an hour (with Express) and I'd have been furious to have waited in a standby line for this. It's been nearly a month since I rode this and I'm still processing how this got green-lit. Ah, well!
I basically felt WTF the first time we viewed this. And I had seen the POV's before. And it was late evening, only a 20 minute wait,
so no line fatigue factoring in my opinion. The Ministry beginning queue is amazing though. If I just had that one look, I would
have given it a 5 rating (1 to 10).
Fortunately, our second day at Epic, the lines were even shorter late night, so we were able to get an additional two rides in. The
ride experience improved with those two additional viewings. I actually liked it then, though I'd still rank it below FJ, Hagrids, Gringotts,
and Hogwarts Express. I'm looking it as a 7 rating now. UC just does such a great job on the Potter rides, the standard is so very high.
I think it would be a good repeatable attraction, though I'd never wait in a 45 minute, or longer, standby line for it. In my eyes, I'm
guessing that she's a weak villain, even though she's quite nasty, and that affects my ride experience. But I'm OK with the ride, just
not ecstatic about it like the other Potter rides.
