Is Guardians ride worth it?

Disney got this ride right. The first coaster in EPCOT is something else - a well themed coaster that has a story and music - that is very fast and has cars that spin independently towards the action - truly a must do experience. The coaster was quite fun but be warned it may be intense for younger kids.

In my opinion, absolutely. Soarin' has been our favorite ride in Epcot for a while. They have a few new really exciting rides. But Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind was by far the best one.

The ride has no straight drops, but there are some areas where the track is curved so you're turning down (while the seat rotates keeping you facing the same way). It does not go upside down.

And like Rock 'n' Roller Coaster, you'll get a rock-and-roll soundtrack during your ride. Songs include A Flock of Seagulls' I Ran, Blondie's One Way or Another, and Earth, Wind, and Fire's September. The ride ends with the Guardians' mission succeeding. The whole on-board ride experience takes just under 3 minutes.

It is a bouncing that does bring you out of your seat as you drop (lap belts should be tightened to help minimize this movement). Guardians of the Galaxy: Mission Breakout is absolutely a scary ride and just may be too scary for some kids.

Which seats are the best? If you're concerned about Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind being too intense, request one of the first two rows. That's the least thrilling and jarring. If you want the best seat from a storytelling perspective, anywhere in the middle is going to be ideal.

It is intense. It's not very scary, however, it is fast, sweeping, and non-stop. It is billed as a “family coaster” and it absolutely is family-friendly, more so than the Guardians of the Galaxy movies themselves. Every kid is different, and you know your child's tolerance level best.

Guardians of the Galaxy Cosmic Rewind The photo on this ride occurs toward the beginning of the ride. It happens after the reverse launch, as you begin to spin back around to face forward.
