Review

Jungle Cruise, Pirates, Haunted Mansion, Country Bear Jamboree, Peter Pan, Dumbo's. All rides that have been around for various years, and while some of the above have the need for a change, update or refurb, none of these compare to the drab, boring and creepiness of It's a Small World (IASW).

This is a slow, painful journey through the nations with the same ridiculously annoying song played throughout but sometimes in different languages. Now for educational (vaguely) and nostalgic reasons, I don't understand how anyone can enjoy this. It has become a pretty famous ride for Disney for some reason, meaning that more people actually queue for this than you'd expect. Most I would say will leave Magic Kingdom with the song firmly etched into their heads and they will hum the tune all the way back to their hotel. That is not a good thing at all! The tune reminds me of a sinister tune from a horror movie. Pretty creepy especially with the dolls in the ride.

It's just boring, irritating, and it's my Nan's favourite ride. Says it all really

1/10
