Depends on what kind of rides you can handle. I think it is a blast, DW gets:sick:.

It is a motion simulator ride, and causes alot of people to get motion sickness.

It's o.k, not nothing scary, just real jerky.

It is a little dated but still cute and fun. We have to ride at least once per trip.

it's a modern classic. sort of like Star Wars itself. It's much more family friendly than M:s, but still a thrill to ride. Definatly do if you're a Star Wars fan

Ditto!!! If you are a fan of Star Wars (like me), then it is a must. It is a little dated (think Original Star Wars Episode IV), but still well worth doing.

Yes, i agree its fun, slightly dated, but actually the complex is vry well done, better than the ride actually- an At-At right outside- plus the sounds etc-
if you are lucky a stormtrooper will be walking around too-
Totaly worth going to-

it is slightly jerky in motion, but my kids have been going since they were 5 and tall enough. they love it.

It's a very fun ride, unless you are prone to motion sickness. Over the last few years, I have gotten to the point I can no longer ride it. :( My DKs still enjoy it very much and always ride it once or twice each trip.

I think it's fun. It's a ride simulator so you get jostled around quite a bit but I think it's pretty cool!

I think its fun buts its more a nostalgia thing for me. It's a little out dated but it brings back memories. I remember going to see the original Star Wars at the drive in and it was also one of the rides I rode at DLR before I rode it at WDW.

Its a simulator so my dh doesn't ride it. They make him come off a little green. It has to do with his eyes not adjusting right. Taking off his glasses made it worse.

Well worth riding once. If you don't like it you'll know and never have to waste another minute thinking about it. If you like it its another ride to add to your favs.

I am a big Star Wars fan and I was let down big time! Wish they would have integrated some more Star wars characters into the ride! The dude driving us reminded me of the short circuit robot! But a good ride overall, just a Star Wars let down!

I'm kind of short, so in the back row my feet don't touch the ground so it makes it more fun. :)

It made me queasy. :sick: My 9 yr old dd loved it, but I couldn't wait for it to be over. I don't mind real rides, but the simulators are too much for me.

If those things don't bother you, it's worth a try, but be forewarned! :sick::sick::sick:

i would suggest riding in the center of the Starspeeder the first time. it's a smoother ride than sitting in the front or the back (back being more bouncy)

Star Tours is one great attraction. I loved it as a kid, and I still enjoy yelling at R2D2 and C3PO as we zip straight to the front of the ride, as there is never a line whenever I go.
Now one thing you must know before entering is that this ride is old and based off of the original 3 films. All of the videos they use for this attraction are outdated, however just becoming a part of the Star Wars Universe is enough to make this ride exciting, enjoyable, and re-ridable.
I'm a huge fan of everything Star Wars and this ride really brings out the little kid in me, everytime I visit.
I would love to see another version of this ride based off of the new trilogy. I think that would be interesting. In my eyes, Disney should expand their Star Wars attraction at MGM, and maybe create more land for it, sort of like how the other parks are creating a Harry Potter park addition. Star Wars is bankable.
