Is Guardians of the Galaxy too intense?

Darkness May Make Guardians Cosmic Rewind Too Scary For Some Kids. The attraction is essentially a coaster that takes place inside a planetarium. If your child has been on Rock N Roller Coaster or Space Mountain and found the dark element of the attraction too scary, this may not be the ride for them.
