Despicable Me: Minion Mayhem

Begin the adventure in Gru's super-villain home where you'll undergo "minion training." In typical Gru fashion things take a wacky twist, with you and your family landing in a laugh-out-loud adventure that ends with an interactive dance party where you can show off your best moves.

Ross Burnett

A really fun ride , especially if you're a bit fan of the minions. Tends to get quite busy quite quickly, as its very near to the park entrance.

Alex Schrameyer

The line may look unwieldy, but the experience is great. Similar to Simpsons, the ride can only take so many people per "show". See life through a minions wye, and of course get into shenanigans

Luis Fernando Franco

This is a mega-meh show. Simpsons' is much better. Since the minions are the new thing you have to wait hours literally for a very simplistic (for a 2013) ride. It's somewhat fun, if the line <30m

Noel Clarke

Really great rides for big and lil ones. Even really lil ones can fo as they have non moving seats so they can just watch the movie . Worth going early as gets popular.

Anders Bärlund

A good one right at the entrance. Perfect way to start the day in the park as most people skip this to go straight to diagon alley

Alexandra Goldstein

Really beautifully done! An engaging pre-show is followed by a gleeful simulator romp through minion training . Mini-dance party and meet and greets with minions afterwards. Ages 4-40 loved it!

Paige

Universal has found a unique way to blend the magic of the Despicable Me franchise and a family friendly ride simulator. While your waiting take in the main hall of Gru's house.

Murat

Great ride, great fun; one of the rides you can never go wrong. Line is always long, but worth to wait.

al viciedo

The ride is a similar setup to 'The Right Stuff' at Six Flags. 3d movie that rocks back in forth as minions cause mayham. Fun ride . Try to go early to avoid a long wait .

Dave St Dennis

Jasmine and Alisa are the best and they both work this ride. They're very helpful.

Orlando Informer

Twinkies are heading back to store shelves, and that's awesome because they're a key ingredient for making minion cupcakes ! See how to celebrate Despicable Me Minion Mayhem at home... Read more

Staci Stevens

They have stationary seating for someone that may not be able to handle the ride vehicles. So much fun!! Love the cute gift shop .

Gavin Harper

Really fun! For the kids the slapstick of the minions. For the adults, the fun word play. 65 minute listed wait took less than 45.

shawn zhu

The Minion Mayhem is the one of the best 4D movie I've ever watched. so be prepare waiting in a long queue or buy express pass.

Robbyn Gordon

If you like minions, don't miss this attraction ! It's cute & a great way to kick off a day at Universal !

Eric Hess

Very fun and family friendly ride that all ages will enjoy.

Amy Snyder

A must do! Do try to get there early to avoid a long wait in line , but even the wait is worth it.

Adam Silva

Love the minions! These seats do move a lot though so if you get motion sick go for the stationary seats .

Mohammed Alyousef

Long line but deserve it. For whom love the minions you should check it out

Jeremy Wilcox

If this is a must-do for your kids, you will have to sacrifice Gringotts and do this first thing, as wait times will hover well over an hour all day.

Dwayne Kilbourne

New in 2011, this one replaces the old but cool Jimmy Neutron attraction near the front of the park !

Brian Kenyon

Fun movie . I'm pretty sure it used to be 3d but may have been making people too queasy from all the movement.

Matt Miller

Public outlets are hard to find! If you have a charger cord, go to guest services to the left of the park exit, turn 180 and past tree on blue wall.

Kelly McCormick

Margo, the oldest of the three little girls, has a picture of the Lorax on her shirt in the movies used within this ride!

Liz Currier

OMG! You get turned into a minion! It's awesome and make sure you dance with them after!

Elysia Benn

Don't forget to look on the walls in the first room (Can spot drawings from the girls!)

John Munera

Same ride configuration from Hanna Barbara and Jimmy Neutron but I liked this ride much better. I had a big smile on my face the entire time.

Gabriela Gomez

Love it although we have to wait for 1hr 30min one of the favorites

Lorence R

Went first thing in the morning and caught the first viewing/ride. 5 minute wait. Passed it later that day...60 minute wait. Good thing I'm an early bird. Music by Pharrell. Tied into the movie .

Randi

Even if a child is under 40" they offer stationary seating so you can sit and enjoy it together!

Joey Stassi

The minions rule! Try to get into the front middle for a nice little surprise during the initial line up

Yo D

Best ride! Wait was 60 minutes, longest all day yesterday. You can smell everything...enjoy!!

Leo C

such a fun ride ... kids and adults will enjoy it equally.

Ebru Kebapcı

One of the best ride in universal .Everyone loves it.

Doug McCullough

Great ride for the kids. Lines are way too long. Get a fast pass

Tiffany Rupp

Really fun ride . Please keep phones off as it ruins the experience for others.

Vicki Owens

The story Is more meaningful if you've seen the movie but they've done a good job of filling in the blanks for those who haven't.

Miguel Torres

Nice 4d graphics, joyful visual ride, nice sound and music quality, minions everywhere!

Mariah Maggioli

Huge line , the attraction is not that good. But, you know, they are THE Minions

George Taylor

They removed the 3D effect, but it still can make you a little seasick.

Tatyana Syunkova

Try not to sit on the front row if possible - the screen is big. Ride is impossibly cute :)

Clay B

If you have back problems you can ask to sit in a stationary bench to watch the movie .

Ramesh V

Extremely well produced ride. A must visit at Universal

Allaboutorlando

Get here early, as ride is new it tends to be very packed. 60-90 min wait

Tiffany Tse

Great stimulation ride. Kind of like the Minion Rush App Game - but with you experiencing the journey.

Ishka Bibble

Try your best not to sit on the ends, especially row one, total fail on 3 d effect

E

I loved this ride! It smells like bananas and make sure you dance with the minions at the end!

Ciro Ota

This ride have a excellent quality of images and so funny!

Santi Caamaño

Waiting for this ride without a fast pass is like hell on Earth. You will completely drive you nuts .

Marques Robinson

Get line for this attraction at either first thing in the morning or right before park close. Don't wait 60+ minutes for this.

Definitely invest in Expess Pass. We were able to ride almost every ride in both parks in 2 full days. Family favorite rides were Gringotts & Mummy. Food was excellent in all areas. - Steph Peacock
