Line queue is extremely unbalanced. The lightning lane loads non stop while the stand by just stands still for 8-10 minutes and then only moved toward 10-15 feet. This causes the ride time to increase 30-45 minutes beyond the posted stand by time while you’re in the middle of the line. It’s frustrating !!! People around us were upset, 20 people gave up and left the line !!! In 20 years of fast pass, max pass and now lightning lane, I’ve never seen this. I give this a rating of 1 because Disney knows about this and does nothing. The ride is short, the story and Disney magic is not as polished as expected.
Pros:
Cute rides for kids Amazing if you have a fast pass… which isn’t necessary for Epcot.Cons:
Line queue is beyond bad and stand by times posted are unreliable. The line isn’t long, you just don’t move fast due to non stop lightning lane loading. Short ride, lacking story telling and Disney magic. Disney knows about the line issues and won’t fix the issue.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 05/20/2022

Shouldn’t have made all riders’ pants so wet. I was walking around with a soggy bottom all afternoon after the ride, which hadn’t dried 2 hours after. Make it less wet, or provide a poncho for riders if it’s going to be that wet.
Pros:
NoneCons:
1) super wet, even the seats are soaked when you first sit on it - effectively, this soaks your pants even before the ride even begins. 2) long queues not worth itReviewed by HeidiZ Review Date: 04/30/2020

I am so mad this replaced the original Norway ride! Elsa and Anna are not for everyone - and this ride just panders to people who will keep buying Frozen merch! Sickening! We rode it once and never again - a very disjointed "story" with no real purpose (other than what I just said)
Pros:
NoneCons:
Ill devised "story line" - if you haven't seen the movie, you would not have a clue - plus people in Norway I don't think could identify with this.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 06/21/2022

Waited in a 55 minute line which was way too much. The best part was seeing Olaf at the beginning. It was not a smooth ride and was bumpy.
Pros:
Frozen animatronics and music.Cons:
Got wet. Screened faces on animatronics didn’t work very well.Reviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 10/08/2023

The stand-by wait time was posted as being 75 minutes. We thought that seemed a little long but had never been on this ride so figured we would just wait. 75 minutes later and maybe in the middle of the line, a worker came on the loudspeaker saying wait times were longer than expected. No kidding. Meanwhile, the lightning lane had people moving on non-stop while we could be standing in the same spot for 15-20 minutes then only move maybe 10 feet if that then repeat. It got to the point where we actually had to get out of line after all that time wasted because otherwise we would have missed our dinner reservations. After that, it became a mission/vendetta to conquer this ride so we waited a long time again with lightning pass traffic seeming to make the wait times longer. We finally got on the ride and guess what...the ride completely shut down RIGHT at the climax. Lights were turned on and a worker even came out and yelled at a toddler sitting in front of us. We sat there like that for about 15 minutes before the ride slowly resumed. Therefore, our experience was very frustrating and disappointing and honestly even without the ride breaking down, it was underwhelming.

I liked the frozen movies, but the ride was just meh. I rode the new version of this ride for the first time in 2021, and it will likely be a 1 & done for me. I actually loved Maelstrom, but will admit it was dated . I would still pick Maelstrom over frozen given the choice. Even though Maelstrom was a Disney-fied version of Vikings/ folk stories, I feel it was better than slapping a bunch of popular frozen characters in a ride. Hot take I know…fight me…shakes fist…JK please don’t actually fight me.
Pros:
Popular IP Good for families with children Updated tech used wellCons:
A bunch of popular IP slapped into the frame of another ride IP characters VS. original to pavilion characters LONG LINEReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 05/27/2021

I honestly don’t know why people like this ride so much... I went on it for the first time today and I have to say I’m glad that my dad qualifies for DAS, because there’s no way I’d be happy if I’d waited 45+ minutes for that ride. I’d say 20 minutes at the ABSOLUTE most for me... the ride itself is... cute.
Pros:
Family friendly, mild thrills.Cons:
Long line, short ride (maybe 3 minutes... maybe?)Reviewed by 15jlh Review Date: 02/25/2021

Great animatronics and a relaxing cool ride did enjoy. But without fast pass not worth the wait.
Pros:
Beautiful scenery and amazing animatronics. Excellent though for small children.Cons:
None others than wait. Not worth unless you have fast passReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 05/29/2020

I am a little upset that this replaced the Maelstrom. Sure it’s a great ride and all but it’s definitely not worth the 3 hr wait. This is definitely a ride you wanna use a fastpass for.
