00:00Before going to Universal Studios Hollywood, you need to know the best rides and the ones you should avoid.
00:04So here they are, ranked from best to worst, 1 through 10.
00:06Number 1, of course, we have Jurassic World.
00:08When you think of Universal Studios Hollywood, this is probably the first ride that comes to mind.
00:11Not only are all the dinosaur animatronics super cool, but the giant drop at the end is the best.
00:15Number 2, we have Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey.
00:17This ride has plenty of twists and turns, and it's super interactive.
00:20You even go through the Forbidden Forest and see the Whomping Willow.
00:22It's just super well done overall, except it does break down a lot.
00:25Up next for number 3, we have the Studio Tour.
00:26Not only will you see actual movie sets, but you'll also be going through mini ride experiences like King Kong 360 3D.
00:31Number 4, I have to give it to Revenge of the Mummy.
00:33If you've been to Disneyland, this is very similar to the Indiana Jones ride.
00:36It does shake you around a lot, and it does kind of turn into Space Mountain halfway through.
00:39Plus, you even go backwards at the end.
00:41Number 5, we have the Simpsons ride.
00:42I will say that I don't like this ride as much anymore.
00:44You're in this little roller coaster cart that will move back and forth, but you're just looking at a giant screen.
00:48Plus, the line can get up to 3 hours long, so I don't think it's as worth it.
00:50Number 6, we have Secret Life of Pets.
00:52By itself, this ride is just super hard to get into, and you have to have a timed entry reservation.
00:56But I will say that the ride itself is cute.
00:57Number 7, we have Flight of the Hippogriff.
00:59If you haven't seen my full review on this ride, it's up now.
01:01But it's super slow, and it only lasts 48 seconds.
01:03And it's just a tiny roller coaster, so I would pass on it.
01:05At number 8, we have the Transformers ride 3D.
01:07It's a 3D ride. I will say it is kind of cool, but again, you're just looking at a giant screen.
01:11It's not the worst, but it's definitely not the best.
01:13At number 9, we have Mario Kart Bowser's Challenge.
01:15Again, I also made a full review on that because I have no idea what they did to that ride.
01:18It's a VR ride, so you are wearing a little headset.
01:20And it's super slow, it's not fun, and it's definitely not worth waiting 2 or 3 hours in line for.
01:24At number 10, what's the ride you should be avoiding at all costs?
01:27At number 10, we have Despicable Me Minion Mayhem.
01:29In this ride, you're just loaded into a giant theater.
01:31And again, you're just looking at a giant screen while the seats are moving.
01:34Because there's so much space in the theater, it kind of takes you out of the experience.
01:36And when you think of a Minion or Despicable Me themed ride, you would think it's so much better.
01:40But unfortunately, there was just a lot of missed potential.
01:42Do you agree with these ratings? Let me know.
01:43And of course, stick around for more travel tips and recommendations, especially in SoCal.
