The ride's cute and a lot of fun, but I don't think the shoot'em-up video game conceit quite begs all forgiveness for another two-dimensional, cardboard-cut-out ride in the Pooh vein. I think they expect the gunfire aspect to distract guests from noticing that the sets are so cheap. And that they do; while I was in shooting mode, I didn't see much of the ride aside from the targets. When I rode again without the raygun, there was, imo, a lot more fun revealed ... and a lot more cheapness. And for a spinning ride, it sure didn't have very much in-the-round design. Nowhere near the all-aroundness of Roger Rabbit.

An enjoyable ride, however, and very appearling. Cool Buzz animatronic in the queue. A great bird bit on Planet Z that's straight out of Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, and -best of all- a wonderful light tunnel effect that's a brilliant homage to Adventure thru Inner Space.

A nice C-Ticket ride. And I hate the rapid cartoonization of Tomorrowland, but at least this is one step away from Ghosttown.
