Note: This ride is a storytelling with animatronic puppets of how Shrek & Fiona met. Hence why the animatronics throughout the ride looks like puppets.
Jace Diehl Is that what this is? Motiongate? Are they the same people behind the Hotel Transylvania ride? These are bottom of the barrel rides. Absolutely terrible rides. Nothing moves! Scenes either spin around or they show scenes from the movie. Cheap, lazy. Hope people don't pay a lot for this junk.
This whole ride reminds me of the classic writing “happy birthday” on a poster, you start each word off huge and can barley fit the ending of the word in.
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.
I don't mind that they were made to look like puppets. I actually think that was pretty cute. But I did miss All Star here and I noticed a LOT of unused space, PLUS exposed track. Not very good... Shrek deserves way better treatment.
@@micycles1200 this one looks so slow though. But yet again your right if you worked on a ride please make it a crazy one than Shrek 4D and this Shrek ride.
Big agree, went on Shrek 4D for the first time in my life a few weeks ago and was disappointed with it, the movie is so iconic/such a big meme and they gave it such crap...
What I didn't like, as well as everything already mentioned, was the second car almost always missed out on the movement of the 'puppets'. By the time their car arrived the animation had finished and they were just looking at static figures.
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.
@@mikeaandewiel i have been in symbolica. I think its on the best trackless darkrides. But i have not been on any other darkride Besides those from the efteling
That ride was way too creepy. Not a fan of the creepy wood carved puppets. The animatronics barely moved. Also an 8min ride? That dark ride theater seems way large. They would never waste that much space at a US them park just for one ride.
I honestly wouldn't mind it if they did... I enjoy long rides when they tell stories. This one, however, DOES seem bare. I'm not even a fan of Shrek anymore and I'll sit here and argue Shrek deserves better than this.
I know many Dark Rides around the world that are around 7/8 mins long, + the indoor sections were large like for Example: The Pirates of Batavia" at Europa Park in Germany-Very large Area but every part of it was themed, Very good animatronics, Special effects, Set Design, etc -One of my fav Dark Rides of all time
@@mikekaraoke I know it's like Haunted Mansion in DisneyWorld Orlando. They need more crazy rides than this one. Who ever created this ride did horrible. It could've been more like a water ride or like a better 3D ride like Transformers and Spiderman
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.
You have to keep in mind that Dubai’s distance from the Disney and Universal parks makes this the quality standard (along with IMG, Ferrari Land, Warner Brothers World etc)
I think this ride was actually really nicely done. I mean it’s no Disneyland but it all has a plot and is easily followed. The animatronics were also well done.
This is an old ride kiddie ride. Universal rides are overall better than the rides at Disneyland. This Shrek ride is similar to the dated rides at Magic Kingdom (Pirates, Haunted Mansion, It's A Small World, Little Mermaid)...all a snoozefest 😂.
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 :)
Pandora Animal kingdom is horrible, same as the Star Wars Park. Attendance of Disney California is down due to Star Wars (just google and you’ll find it in the news). Toy story ride in Hollywood studios. No, only Disney fanatics still think it’s fantastic. But realistically, the quality has gone down and prices went up.
dontbecrazy15 there is no stars wars park, just a themed land. animal kingdom is great and pandora is literally revolutionary. disney california wasn’t a complete success from day 1 so of course a huge ip would draw away from it gtfo
Dear Motiongate, If you're going to make a ride of a beloved franchise, go all in or not at all. Not half way, like this ride apparently is. I know you may not have a lot of money to invest right now, but it's worth it. Sincerely, A theme park attendee
Surprising they got Dean Edwards to reprise Donkey from Scared Shrekless. Michael Gough reprising his role as Shrek from other media was an obvious surprise.
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).
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
@@graymoreghost 2 of these already have rides and 2 of them don't exactly have the audience to make a dark ride for. Game of Thrones should get it's own theme park to be honest
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.
While I don't know who voiced Lord Farquaad in this, the notable voices are: Michael Gough as Shrek Dead Edwards as Donkey Holly Fields as Princess Fiona Chris Miller as the Magic Mirror and the Captain of the Guards Cody Cameron as Pinocchio and the Three Little Pigs
I feel like they plan the show but don’t plan the amount of space it will actually take. They build these huge buildings with huge spaces but the scenes are so simple with barely anything going on so it looks so empty. Same with all of the other rides they have done.
I think they want to make rides that are entertaining and fun, they just don’t have the experience of ride making and entertainment as we do, but their hearts are in the right place atleast
This one and the "How to train your Dragon" ride looks the best. The worst one's looks like the "Cloudy with a chance of meatballs," and "Hotel Transylvania" one.
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**
Pinocchio, Alice, 7 Dwarfs (Doc, Dopey, Happy, Bashful, Grumpy, Sleepy and Sneezy), Red Riding Hood, 3 Little Pig (Fiddler, Fifer, Practical), Big Bad Wolf, 3 Good Fairie (Flora, Fauna and Merryweather), 3 Blind Mice with Blind Mouseketeers, 3 Bear with Yogi Cindy and Boo Boo, Goldie Lock Saloon the Ballerina, Pied Piper, White Rabbit, Peter Pan, Robin Hood, Wizard with Yen Sid and Nostros, Wicked Wicth with Witch Hazel, Ugly Ducking with Vandy the Little Yellow Duck, Shoemaker Elf with Starlight Elf (Starlight Glimmer), Sugar Plum Fairy with Lilli the Cat, Fairy Godmother, Viking with Stoick the Vast and Astrid Hofferson, Gnome Madame and Santa, Humpty Dumpty, Tooth Fairy with Toothiana, Rarity the Great Bird - La Nouba with Golden Goose, Ice Queen with Elsa, Jack the Beanstalk with Gloriosa Daisy as Gaia Everfree, Toy Soldier with Marshal Mallow, Clopin, La Muerte and Xibalba & Pear Butter Creatures the Pony
All these people in the comments complaining, I've never even seen this ride before and I thought it was pretty in depth for an 8 minute ride having to cliff notes a what 1hr 30- 2 hour movie they did pretty good in my opinion.
Imagine that Disneyland will made a wonderful ride about Star Wars where Ahsoka Tano, Ezra Bridger, Luke Skywalker, Sabine Wren, Leia Organa and Qi'ra told at Little Ben Solo about Anakin Skywalker, from Phantom Menace(including star wars the clone Wars, Bad Batch, Solo a star wars Story, the sequel of Solo a star wars Story, Obi-Wan miniseries, Darth Vader miniseries and Star Wars Rebels) to Return of Jedi as Universal Studios did It with Shrek ride where Shrek and Fiona told at their children How they Met in Shrek 1. What a wonderful and important idea

Yes, I get they did terribly.
Just an excuse to make cheap barely animatronics. The opening & closing scenes don't look any better.
SoCal Attractions 360 d
Oh I just thought it was really cheap
The room where everything was on fire was cool, but that’s it.
So weird how empty most of these Motiongate rides are
I was thinking the same! ITS SO EMPTY!
Most people can't afford a vacation in Dubai, its meant to be a playground for the rich.
Same why do they leave it so empty
It's not normally empty
Jace Diehl Is that what this is? Motiongate? Are they the same people behind the Hotel Transylvania ride? These are bottom of the barrel rides. Absolutely terrible rides. Nothing moves! Scenes either spin around or they show scenes from the movie. Cheap, lazy. Hope people don't pay a lot for this junk.
Why it is called a "trackless ride? A true trackless ride doesn´t have any lines on the floor, like ratatouille in Paris or Winnie the Pooh in Japan.
Adonis Fernández Exactly!!!
Luckily Warner Bros World has better trackless rides not Disney trackless ride, but you know what I mean.
I so agree!
Its from the wheel going in exactly the same path over and over. I guarantee those rides have 'lines' too.
but disney's trackless rides have ride vehicles that have batteries in them so they have to recharge/replace them often
This is like the cliff notes version of Shrek
massive611 Hey now, you’re a rockstar
You’d rather the ride take an hour?
Just like many of Disney's iconic dark rides are cliffsnotes versions of their respective movies.
Hahaha
This is pretty long considering other dark rides for animated movies
This whole ride reminds me of the classic writing “happy birthday” on a poster, you start each word off huge and can barley fit the ending of the word in.
That's the perfect way to describe it, honestly.
😂Sooooo true!😂
I know how big letters should be
This was actually kind of creative and better than I expected. The wooden puppet effect was pretty cool honestly.
There's so much wasted real estate in this ride! It looks like they only put in the bare minimum to get across the story.
Just like the Frozen ride at Disney World.
Michael Smith at least frozen has great animatronics
@The Genius Literally all it has. Especially compared to the storytelling in The Maelstrom.
WheeledJustice at least they did onions have layers metaphor
Michael Smith yeah but think about what this ride could have done and some ideas would improve it
How do you think Dubai has so much money? It isnt the oil and gas, it is the lack of spending on animatronics.
I would say it is scammers that bring in the money. That not 100% true. It more like america's 1% building things with their money.
lmao. Yup that's how Dubai got so rich.... not spending enough money on animatronics.
Ra-V-en better than all the cardboard cutouts in the other parks
Actually, most oil comes from Abu Dhabi. Dubai doesn't have anything compared to Abu Dhabi.
It was supposed to be the puppet show
This ride has layers
LMAO
And it smells
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.

Easier to make cheaply made animatronics rather than maintaining complex ones that need to be maintenenced always.

@@Lameashellcosplay to be fair, that ride was made in 2003, it's 15 years old.

Shrek: hey kids wanna hear how your mom and I became a couple

Wonder Bunny Yeah it honestly looks like there's work lights on 24/7 lmao
A dark ride is a car or boat or whatever taking you through different scenes. It does not per se have to be very dark
They use a camera that is low light so it picks up more than the human eye
This is the best creative ride I have seen from this park.
Should be called Shrek's Boring Journey.
MrStGeorgeIllawarra and why is that
MrStGeorgeIllawarra but in this case, it works due to the fact that this has basically puppet/marionette elements
No
its for kids and elderly...dont be a selfish brat, you can ride something else
the best thing about this ride is definitely how perfect the information booth is

Surprising they got Dean Edwards to reprise Donkey from Scared Shrekless. Michael Gough reprising his role as Shrek from other media was an obvious surprise.
Say what you want but i'll much rather take a dark ride rather than some 4-D ride
This is something you order on wish without reading the reviews first.
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).
Thry could've surely upped the speed on some parts though. Escaping a burning castle at a slow pase isn't exactly an exciting thing.
The only bit my eyes widened was the church scene due to the scale of the set, not the detail.
Idk why it looks like your in a vR for a min but then I read the title and it was a ride!!!!
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
Why is it called a trackless dark ride when there an obvious track. Lol

That’s a long dark ride!
mscarbon with not much happening
1:35 The Duloc machine has great audio-animatronic design! Universal has great audio-animatronic design as well as Disney.
I feel like they plan the show but don’t plan the amount of space it will actually take. They build these huge buildings with huge spaces but the scenes are so simple with barely anything going on so it looks so empty. Same with all of the other rides they have done.
Wow! I never rode this before! Back when I was 5 years old, my mom can’t let me go to Dubai
Man, so much unused potential, imagine a dragon animatronic great enough to compete with Bruce or Rexy.
The mechanical clacking with the song is really good 1:38
Very intelligent of you placing those "right-on-time" mute spots ;) That's it: let's avoid strikes ;)
So cool
why did I not know this existed!?
I've always wanted to see the Duloc song and puppets on a ride lol.
best 8 minutes of my life
do you have eyes?
no i lost them in a car crash
I think this is the best one. This one is really cute.
I didn't know that existed. I think that was pretty good.
The perfect dark ride doesn’t exi-
Wow that's amazeing. Wish they had something like this closer to me.
This is so far the best one I’ve seen and they actually utilize the space unlike the other rides where there is too much open space
Yes I want this at universal
I love your channel
Places like Dubai try so hard to be america, with out any of the heart.
I think they want to make rides that are entertaining and fun, they just don’t have the experience of ride making and entertainment as we do, but their hearts are in the right place atleast
"lets do that again!!!"
The ride looks like they rushed it
Maybe Shrek was like okay that's how the story goes bye bye! Getting tired of reading good night.

Thanks SoCal Attractions 360 aka John it was so great to collaborate with you!!!
Maybe I'm weird but I kinda like the puppet style. To me, made sense because its suppose to be a puppet show for the Shrek children.
I mean...the idea with the wooden puppets is cute if you ask me, but the rest just feels boring. Overall, it could've been pulled off better.
It was pretty cool but it's empty most of the time and then the 2nd car doesn't see much
this is so amazing, Disney world FL. needs one
Evan Patterson why would they put this in Disney? Are you okay?
They definitely went for length over quality

I will say i was happy the dragon was in it more than i thought
this ride is cool as hell
Now this, this is epic
All these people in the comments complaining, I've never even seen this ride before and I thought it was pretty in depth for an 8 minute ride having to cliff notes a what 1hr 30- 2 hour movie they did pretty good in my opinion.
Very cute. I like the puppet concept.
Really neat ride, love the duloc puppets
Imagine that Disneyland will made a wonderful ride about Star Wars where Ahsoka Tano, Ezra Bridger, Luke Skywalker, Sabine Wren, Leia Organa and Qi'ra told at Little Ben Solo about Anakin Skywalker, from Phantom Menace(including star wars the clone Wars, Bad Batch, Solo a star wars Story, the sequel of Solo a star wars Story, Obi-Wan miniseries, Darth Vader miniseries and Star Wars Rebels) to Return of Jedi as Universal Studios did It with Shrek ride where Shrek and Fiona told at their children How they Met in Shrek 1. What a wonderful and important idea
why did i watch this whole video
Anyone else notice that this ride DOES have clear tracks?! 😬 But, as rides go, it’s pretty nice
It looks broken, why does everything hardly move?
Wow, glad I didn't have to wait in line for this
that's a really clever ride idea!
This is my shreksual awakening.
Cute ride! I’m just sad there was no Gingy or Puss in Boots at the end. Why weren’t they listening to the story, too??
I wish universal did more rides like this and relied less on screens.
The ride looks pretty well done. Really want to see this come to universal
