Really fun show, plenty of seating, and a good chance to get out of the heat and in front of some fans. The show was a good mix of kinda behind the scenes of action films, and it really got the younger kids attention, also great for any of the old Indiana Jones fanatics. If we come back I'll definitely make this a stop again next time.

Action, Explosions, and Classic Indy Charm – A Hollywood Must-See! The Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! is like stepping into a live action movie set—explosions, death-defying stunts, and all! It’s one of the longest-running shows at Walt Disney World, and for good reason. Whether you’re a fan of the classic Indiana Jones films or just love adrenaline-pumping action, this show delivers. The stunt performers are incredible. From dodging giant rolling boulders to leaping from rooftops and scaling walls, it feels like you’re watching a live version of Raiders of the Lost Ark. And the way they break the fourth wall and show you how movie stunts are done adds an educational twist that’s super entertaining. There’s humor sprinkled throughout, audience interaction, and plenty of fireballs to make you feel the heat (literally). The set design is impressive, and the whole production runs like clockwork—yet still feels fresh and exciting. It’s a great break from the rides, lasts about 30 minutes, and is totally worth your time. If you’re into classic adventure films, movie magic, or just want to see someone outrun a boulder in real life, don’t miss this one! Handicap seating is in the front row or the back before they are all gone.

The stuntmen worked incredibly hard on set, and the opening Indiana Jones action sequence was fantastic, but the rest of the show felt a bit outdated. In fact, Universal Studios "Waterworld" is a far superior show in terms of both set design and action. This film is one of the greatest action-adventure films in Hollywood history, and Disney should treat it with even higher standards.

Its been a few years so last time I was here, this was the big attraction at the park, the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular. A live show recreating iconic moments of the original film. Featuring the boulder run, the desert market fight scene and the fight on the flying wing, this full of pyrotechnics and live action stunts. And of course, on the way out, a gift shop for obtaining a replica famous Indiana Jones hat!

A true staple of Hollywood Studios and ticks all the boxes. An amazing stunt show (a nice break from the rides), a break from the heat sitting inside the covered arena and air-conditioning! Watch Indy and the team perform a number of set pieces from Indiana Jones films, gasp at the amazing stunts and enjoy the spectacular explosions

It’s a good experience to go see a show of how they make movies. There are explosions involved during the show but they’re under control by trained professionals who work from the film industry. There’s plenty of shows daily just look up the time you want to go see the show. It’s been a childhood classic favorite of mine and I had a great experience with my family to experience it several months ago. It’s based off Indiana Jones. It’s outside there fans to help keep you cool during the hot part of the day. It’s great for every one of all ages and for families with kids. It’s a live show. There’s tons of space to go find a good seat.

This has always been one of my favorite classic shows since the days of MGM Studios. It seems this has been one of the staples over the past 3 decades or Lucas/Spielburg have some type of time contract with Disney. The stunt show is a good twenty minutes and can provide a slight cool off with fans blowing. The spectacular parts are a lot falls, jumps, tumbles, and fire. Though may not sway teenagers but little kids it will do just fine as loud sound effects and stunts will draw their attention for the better of 20 minutes long.

We really enjoyed watching the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular. This is an exciting behind the scenes demonstration of stunts from the movie. The sets are similar to the first movie and professional stunt people demonstrate how the action is safely performed. It’s nonstop action watching how these guys bring the realistic stunts to life.

Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular is one of the shows at Disney's Hollywood Studios that is from the original attractions and one of my absolute favorites at the park. It truly has not changed over the years, but I still enjoy it to this day even after watching it hundreds of times. This show is what is sounds like, you are taken along the movie set of Indiana Jones and you are witnessing how they perform the stunt scenes in movies. These are all stunt actors or stunt performers. They work so hard and always perform a great show. They take you right into the action scenes, usually about 3-4 scenes depending on weather. It's very active, engaging, can be loud but always fun. The theatre is very large, but it will fill up with almost every show. We like to get there early so we can sit lower in the theatre, but we have walked in last minute and still gotten a seat in the back. There truly is not a bad seat in the house. This is also one of the best shows in the summer. The theatre has giant fans that keep it very cool in the hot summer days. You are also able to bring food and drinks inside the theatre. They do have a small drink cart and popcorn you can purchase inside, but this line gets long. I would recommend getting food/drinks outside and then bringing it in. We always grab a cocktail before and head inside. Prior to the shutdown, they would ask for audience participation to assist in one of their stunt scenes. It was always so funny with the people they chose. However, they no longer have this part of the show. I would say if you were a fan of the movies, you will love this show. If you have never seen the movies, you will still enjoy the show because it is action packed and brings you into the movies and uses some great stuntmen and women. Overall, I really enjoy this show, it is one of my favorite shows at Studios! I would recommend checking it out on your next visit. Aces!

Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular is one of the shows at Disney's Hollywood Studios. This has been here for quite some time, and it one of my favorites. It really hasn't changed much over the years, it is the same scenes but still always a great show. This takes you into how the make movies particularly with the stunts. It is a huge set, with numerous seats. However, it does actually fill up for each show. We like to get there early so we can sit lower, but there really is not a bad seat in the house. They used to ask for participation from the audience that would assist in one of their stunt scenes. It was always so fun. Since the reopened after the shutdown, they no longer use the audience volunteers. You are taken into a movie scene, where you are watching them film different stunt scenes from the Indiana Jones movies. It is very active, engaging, can be loud and really fun. I find it very engaging even though I have seen this show hundreds of times. This is also one of the best shows in the summer. The theatre has giant fans that keep it very cool in the hot summer days. There is also a small drink cart and popcorn you can purchase inside. This line gets long so I recommend bringing in a snack or drink from the outside. We prefer to grab a cocktail before and head inside. You are able to eat and drink in the stadium. If you are a fan of the movies, you will love this show. If you have never seen the movies, you will still enjoy the show. It's action packed, brings you into the movies and has some really great stunts. It can get loud in certain scenes so kids who frighten easily, might want to be prepared. Overall, I really enjoy this show. There are not a ton of rides at Studios, but I love this park. I love that there are so many shows, it makes for an easy day and not so high impact. I would recommend checking it out on your next visit.

Pretty cool 30m show to cut up the day. While the majority of shows I've attended are indoor, this one is located outdoor, but there are a ton of ceiling fans going full blast to keep everyone cool and collected. Demonstrations across (3) scenes: stunts, special effects, movie making.

Really good and kinda long ! I'm pretty sure this is a 30-45 minute show! Fantastic stunts, enthusiastic performers and cast! Stadium seating in five sections and HUGE fans to keep you cool!! The audience is supposed to be watching the taping of a movie with all the lights, cameras and ACTION! Also the scale of this show kept getting bigger. When we first arrived I thought we were looking at the only set but it's one of three! I won't spoil anything but it's a very cool show! We grabbed a lightning lane pass and walked right in but this one is worth the wait! There's lot of surprises, explosions and loud noises just to warn you! Similar to WaterWorld at universal studios (without the water )!!

I am conflicted with my rating only because the show itself is multi-layered. I saw this in 2010 and when revisitingin 2025 it seemed a lot longer! I can't believe people wait for this lol it s a long show I think it's got to be 20-25 minutes. Most of the folks in my party were about to fall asleep by the end of the show. There are a lot of pyrotechnics, you can actually feel the flames from one explosion. It's neat, but it's also very staged, it wasn't my favorite, and didn't keep everyones attention, I would definitely not opt for this as it takes so long.

We went to Disney for our honeymoon. And believe me when I say after 30 years it's the same show. They've updated the stunts and explosions, but not the script. I was hoping they would have put in stunts from all the movies 4 stars because it's the Indiana Jones™ Epic Stunt Spectacular!!! And it's great.

This is an amazing show as you can see how they do all of the super cool stunts in the movies which is an eye-opening experience. Also all of the stunts they have selected to show are super cool and it is a must see at Disney world.

It's been over 15 years since I've watched Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! During my family's latest visit to Disney World Hollywood studios during Memorial day week, we had a chance to watch the show! The show originally debuted in 1989 and is one of the best shows at Hollywood Studios. The spectacle brings the iconic Indiana Jones to life and shows how stunts are done in movies! It's pretty cool. The Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular is in a large outdoor amphitheater right before the Star Tours ride. You can get a Genie+ for this show and arrive 15 minutes prior to general opening. This will allow you to get better seats for the show. I think this show is approximately 30 minutes long. Throughout the show, you'll see a wide variety of acrobatics, high-energy stunts, and choreography. The show will frequently create stunts and leverage special effects. There are some loud noises towards the end of the show and thrilling sequences! Check the Disney World mobile application for showtimes! It typically starts around 10:45 AM and will show every hour or hour and 15 minutes.

I can't remember how many times we've seen this show since Hollywood Studios opened as MGM Studio. We've seen it at least ten times. We really enjoyed it when audience members were part of the show. In the beginning, we always tried to join the chosen few. But CoVid stopped that kind of interaction, and I don't think it's changed in May 2023. The best part of this attraction is the availability of seats. We came thirty minutes early today & had lots to choose from. We also came early to enjoy the fans which provided relief from the heat. It's 86° and feels like 96°. The fans are the second best part of the show. We enjoyed all the Indiana Jones movies, and are looking forward to the newest one this year. The show brings back memories, and is an exciting piece of theater. All of the stunt performers are great, and they do their jobs well - from taking punches and tumbling to avoiding the flames in the pro tech iv demonstration. It's the best!

This show was good for the first ten minutes and then something broke. We were then asked to leave the theater because they couldn't fix it. Seriously disappointing.

This show needs a little bit of an update. I saw this one more then 20 years ago and I don't think it has changed too much since. I'm a huge Raiders if the Lost Ark fan and was excited to share it with my boys, but for them, although exciting at times, at others, it fell a little flat. There is so much more that could be done to improve this show. A little better acting, some new stunts, pump up the volume! I know they do show after show day after day I'm sure it is hard to keep the energy level going, but find a way to recharge! I think this is a must have... it still packs in a crowd... it just needs a little more... umph. I'd hate to see this one go away

MUST SEE FOR INDIANA JONES FANS The Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular is the same show from years ago when I first visited Hollywood Studios. And it's just as fun now as it was then. Take a break from the long lines for rides and relax on bench seating in a large covered open-air arena. Get to the show before it starts as you might not be seated once the show begins. The 1/2 hour show is staged as a visit to the Indiana Jones movie set. Cast members explain the stunts and then the stunts are performed. The three staged scenes are from the original Raiders of the Lost Ark movie: the boulder scene, the bazaar scene and the plane explosion scene. Bring binoculars for close-up viewing of the stunts.

(Late review from October - November 2022) I think the opening action stunt scene was the highlight, a nice recreation of the famous Indiana Jones rolling boulder scene. The rest of the action scenes and self-referential scenes was alright, you know Disney-fied level predictable. An acceptable show to pass the time while waiting for ride wait times to decrease.

Jorge F.

Yelp
First all, 70% of the show was the cast was explaining how hard they work and how dangerous their jobs is. The show itself was lackluster and left a lot to be desired. The so called demolitions experts was trash and ruined the entire show. The ending was horrendous with random explosions that didn't even tie into the story. Avoid this garbage.

I came by to watch this since my friends were going to ride something scary. I came as a single person so it was easy to find an end seat at the front. I think the show is twofold, to show you how stunts are directed in the movie making business and then obviously to blow you away with crazy stunts. I had some trouble understanding if they were acting it out or it was supposed to be informational. It might be a little bit dated for newer audiences if you haven't seen the original Indiana Jones movies. The finale is pretty cool but I wouldn't go out of my way to see this if there were still rides that I wanted to go on.

I've seen this show twice and I think it's definitely worth seeing. There are a lot of seats and all the seats have a good view. If you have seen the episode of Full House where they go to Disney World, this is the same show they watch in that episode.

To be fair, the show had mechanical problems so I did not see the whole thing. Great set. Great show stunts including running from fires, giant boulders, and piercing stakes. 3 scenes available but only one due to major mechanical issue. Even with this, unless you are a huge Indiana Jones fans, I probably would skip this unless you just need a break from walking do much.

Don't worry about getting a fastpass for this. There's plenty of seating for everyone. If you like being the center of attention, raise your hand to be an extra. Its a fun show, worth stopping. If you don't have time for it, it won't ruin your day if you missed it.

Hollywood Studios (Orlando) ECHO LAKE This is a live movie-stunt demonstration and action entertainment show. We had an 11:30a FastPass+ (second performance) but we could've just waited as a standby. The Stunt Theater holds 2,000 people. There were audience participation where you could be chosen as an "extra" in the stunt show. The trick here is to sit towards the front as most of the ones chosen were mostly from the front... but the best way to get picked was to stand up, wave your arms (you know, throw your hands in the air and wave 'em like you just don't care), and shout when the "casting director" called for volunteers! LoL! The director will explain the stunts to the extras and they were made to feel like they are on the set but with the stunt co-ordinator explaining everything to them. The show starts off from that epic opening scene from Raiders of the Lost Ark when Indy ventures through the perilous temple... then that "boulder scene" aaaaand CUT! The set could be loud with all the pyrotechnic effects but a fun action packed story. Fun show as we cheered for Indy and Marion as they dodged deadly traps, battle the bad guys, leaped from tall buildings and made thrilling escapes straight out of Raiders of the Lost Ark scenes but if all the shows are just these three scenes then seeing it once was good enough for me. The show is about 30 Minutes long. Review #1482

A great stunt show at Hollywood Studios. This is one of the many features at Disney's Hollywood Studios Theme Park. It is located inside to the east side of the park between the entrance and the Backlot Express restaurant. It closed for a period during covid but reopened in late 2001. It is in a large amphitheater that opens onto an open area. The bench seating can fit a lot of people. It is, as the name says, a stunt spectacular that follows the theme of the initial Indiana Jones movie by recreating 3 epic scenes from the film. The first scene is inside the cave with all of the peril that the hero finds there. Then they break, explain how stunts are accomplished, introduce the players, move the backdrop, and set up for the Bazaar portion. Once that is accomplished they move onto the plane escape cut. The last 2 parts have progressive fire scenes with sound effects simulating explosions. Overall, it is a very entertaining show with an excellent job of sound effects, explosions, fireworks, and acting to keep the audience engaged from start to finish. I am pleased that they re-opened it with minimal changes from the original show and look forward to seeing it in the future.

This may have been my favorite show in DisneyWorld. I'm a big action movie fan and to be able to see them breakdown all of the stunts, special effects, and the massive team it takes to pull everything off, it just gives more appreciation for the work that goes into it. They will breakdown the scenes, how it's done, and then perform the scene.

We had a fast pass for this, which you probably don't really need. The arena that this is in was only about half full. Yes, the sets for this are quite elaborate, but I found the whole production to be way too drawn out. If you have antsy young kids with you, they probably won't want to sit through this. The performers do show you a variety of special effects, but to me there was a little too much down time. There are opportunities for audience participation, so that might appeal to some. This is definitely a one and done. I'm sad to see the Great Movie Ride is gone, but this is still here. :( I'd like to see this replaced in the near future.

Nice behind the scenes look at filming. Lots of action and pyrotechnics. They cover the meaningful scene of the original Indiana jones.

Would I use a lightning pass on this? - The need to do so should be rare except during peak season The kid factor: GRADE B. The show may be too loud or long for some young ones. Other kids (that aren't bother by that) will probably be pretty amused. The line, ease of boarding, staff, and atmosphere: GRADE A. Being more like theatre seating no issues. Good space for those with disabilities. Good place to rest your feet for a spell The attraction overall / final thoughts: GRADE B. This one was a little tougher to grade. These was some neat stuff, and a fair degree of cheesiness. They put a lot of work into this show however, so I can't help but respect it.

This place was the perfect venue for festival Disney. Great atmosphere, nice seats, and an all-around fun time for all. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for a nice time at Disney's Hollywood studios.

Totally disappointed in the changes! They removed one of the most iconic scenes in the show where a German bomber is taken down by Indy and the crew. I assume it was removed as some sort of attempt to appease sensitive fans but all it did was make the show shorter and dull.

When it comes to enduring Orlando's hot August summers, Joe K and I initially chose to see this show just to sit and relax for some shelter from the sun. This huge covered stadium had fans blowing well enough to lower the temperature somewhat and offered bench seating. Since I'm a fan of the Indiana Jones movies, seeing this show turned out to be a "must see" for sure! The stunt show is based around the original first movie, "Indiana Jones and the Lost Ark", which is now considered a classic in sci-fi history. We start off with one of the most famous scenes from the movie, when Indy is trying to scale down into a dangerous archaeological pit of an ancient city filled with boobie traps at every turn. Ultimately, it leads to the arrival of the giant spherical boulder that rolls down after the actor as he narrowly misses getting crushed. After the introduction of this first act, we get a more in depth look at how action movies such as this are made. Multiple stunt doubles appear to guide us further behind the scenes of movie making magic! They also include volunteering audience members into several of the scenes. Basically, the entire stunt show gives you a closer and demonstrative look at how action is achieved, with fight scenes, pyrotechnics, huge back grounds and prop changes right before our eyes! Parts of the show are a bit slow involving the audience volunteers, but despite some cheesy and over acting moments, most of this 30 minute show was pretty entertaining and humorous! This is definitely something that should be experienced at least once when visiting Disney's Hollywood Studios! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IR5_Vu3vgbI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPikIbqdhsE

I was tired of walking around the studio.I used one of the fast pass.I stopped by here.However, i lost my park ticket.The show was going to start soon.I had to go to a customer service agent.She gave me a new ticket.Thanks. The show was packed.I got a seat at the first row.It was an interesting show.I read other reviews on Yelp.Some of the people said" It is boring". However, if you are a first time visitor and like Indiana Jones, it is worth while watching.

Out of all of the changes that Hollywood Studios has been making, I think this show is one they could definitely replace. It's not bad, but I've seen it so many times and I just don't care to have it there anymore. It's great for those who love the movies and have never seen it, but once you come again it's all the exact same stuff, and it's not as interesting. I mean, did they HAVE to get rid of the Great Movie Ride but keep this?? I'm sorry, I'm just bitter. The show is about different stunt tricks that they do in the Indiana Jones movies, which is pretty neat. You get to see the big boulder come down, fire and different kinds of things happening. They also bring a guest on stage each time to help them out! I'd recommend seeing it at least once, but that's about all you need with this one. Also, don't bother getting a Fastpass here unless you really want a close seat.

Very entertaining show with Hollywood stunts, etc. I recommend at least watching it once, especially if it's your first visit to Hollywood Studios. Great entertainment if you want to get out of the hot Florida sun and sit in the shade for a while.

This show was interesting to watch the first time; although, I thought it dragged on for far too long. I was definitely ready for it to end before it actually did. The beginning is pretty cool where the beginning scene from Raiders of The Lost Arc is re-inacted, completely with the huge boulder chasing after Indie. You're then showed other stunts and how sets are moved around. Then they start talking way too much. Members of the audience are chosen to participate. It can be funny, but mostly it's just corny. Again, once is ok. But after the initial scene, it just all starts to go downhill. I've been to this show one too many times because, inevitably, whenever I'm playing tour guide to someone who has never been to the Parks, they want to see this show. The stadium is covered, so you have shade, but it's not indoors, so you're still very much in the heat. If your feet are tired, it's a nice break. If you're only at Hollywood Studios for one day, I would say skip this one unless you're some huge Indiana Jones fan (even then you may be disappointed). Disney seriously needs to retire this and put in something new. Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular is old and tired... it should have been replaced a long time ago.

Pros Excitement Crowd Participation Size Acting Cons Weather Dependent Sound Volume This show is AMAZING, there was non-stop excitement from beginning to end, in Indiana Jones fashion. For kids it is interesting because it teaches them some interesting parts on how movies are made and some of the actions that they go through. It was impressive the way the actors kept the crowd involved. The narrators and main actors also involved the crowd and allowed them to participate with the group and actually come down on stage. I was actually selected and able to do my own scene in front of hundreds of people in the crowd during one of the performances. It was exhilarating and also my son got the chance to see his dad use some of those acting skills. The auditorium was huge even though it reached capacity, it seated nearly a couple of thousands of people, so there was no room for anyone to miss out on the show. The auditorium is out in the open and not in a building, so whenever the weather is bad it does not bode well for the guest or the actors. Our night, it was freezing cold, but the body heat and the lights helped make sure all of the actors were able to stay warm including myself. There are also some moments with loud noises so if you're not big on explosions and bangs, then this might not be your show. In all it was a great experience, and I enjoyed every bit of it.

Indiana Jones was okay to me. Don't put this on your fast pass wish list. You won't need one. You won't wait long for this show, and there are tons of seats. I liked the beginning when the huge boulder almost ran Indiana Jones down. It did look so real and so heavy. All the stuff with the acrobats, extras, shooting in another country were just okay to me. When was Indiana Jones? Like super back in the day. Yes I feel like I was like 5 or 10 years old watching this. Like I said no biggie!

WARNING: I am totally bias to anything that has to do with Indiana Jones, so this review is COMPLETELY one-sided!!!! THE SCENE We all wanted to be someone when were running around pretending to be one person or another barely out of our diapers. I have always had a fascination for archaeology ever since I discovered the history of the city of Pompeii as a youth. To discover they were unearthing complete bodies that were not completely destroyed by lava was fascinating. Egyptian and Mayan pyramids were also of heavy value to my interests, so when I saw Raiders of the Lost Ark for the very first time, I was DEEPLY hooked! I must have annoyed every adult on the planet back then as I used sound effects to crack my imaginary whip everywhere I went. Grocery store, beach, church, you name it and I whipped it! I have such a love for the Raiders of the Lost Arc franchise that it transferred to my youngest son. Between the ages of 3 and 10 he insisted on playing outside in his boots, leather vest and fedora. Oddly this made me more proud than embarrassed as often we swung over dangerous lava-filled sidewalks with my imaginary whip! So without question the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular was top priority during our Hollywood Studios visit. THE EXPERIENCE I won't try to describe the show, but in my opinion it was very entertaining, especially if you can get lucky enough to become part of the cast in their audience participation selection. They were only looking for younger people (so I was overlooked), but I raised my hand and jumped up and down like Horeshack from Welcome Back Kotter trying to get noticed. Had I been chosen, I'm pretty certain I would have ran down to the stage or airlifted in epic Price Is Right fashion: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEYhAaOTBFs What I truly like about the show is they don't hide the fact that it's not real, and yet they try to make it realistic for the audience. The purpose of the show it to give kind of a behind the scenes view of the making of such Hollywood films. However, the best part of this visit for me was getting to take pics with the cast after the show. You can believe those photo's are going in our family yearbook and just might make the front cover (which in our house takes top honors, like a Sports Illustrated cover)!!! FINAL THOUGHTS I wanted to be Indiana Jones as a kid and still do as an adult. He speaks to my adventurous nature as well as my love of history, travel, off the beaten path excursions and archaeology. So yes, I am bias when I say this is the best show in all of Disney! Truth be told, most of the shows and attractions at Disney aren't very exciting for thrill-seeker personalities like mine. Disney is rather subdued, so I personally found this more thrilling than most anything else we experienced on our 4 day/4 park tour. Of course they could use to freshen it up with better scenery and more content, but if they do or they don't I'm happy! 2017/66

Well, I'll say this: at least this show is consistent! I decided to check out this show on my recent trip to Disney World. I probably haven't seen this thing since the early 1990s and it is the exact same show that I remember from when this park first OPENED in the 1980s! It's seriously the same exact show, complete with the lame gags, the fake "director" and "cameraman," and audience "volunteer" joke (longtime Disney fans will know what I'm talking about here). I appreciate nostalgia, but come on. There's simply a point when a show turns stale, old and lame, and this one passed that point about 20 years earlier. The stadium is outdoors but thankfully they've constructed a metal roof with giant fans, but don't let the fans and the shade fool you -- it is hot as blazes to watch this show. You have to cram in with hundreds of sweaty people on uncomfortable metal seats too. I love Indiana Jones but it's time to retire this show. It's just too dated to be enjoyable.

I don't think I saw the whole show? I think they stopped early for some reason. Because there's scenes in people's picture that I never saw. Like we didn't have a helicopter in our show. So that could be why I didn't really like it, because I didn't see the whole thing xD I didn't get to see the big stunt at the end. Was kinda boring in some parts. Wouldn't see it again.

This is a fun show that's been going on in Hollywood studios for a long time! I remember watching it when I was a kid. It's a show about stunt double Indiana Jones. Very entertaining as you can sit after a long day at the park. It's funny, exciting, and always fun even if you went to it before. They ask for volunteers to make the show even funner! The stadium sits a lot of people and there's big fans that keeps it cool. If you do get a fast pass, you get better middle seats, but usually they can fit everyone. Definitely a must if you go to Hollywood Studios!

I always enjoy this show, if nothing else because it grants you some time out of the hot Florida sun. I wish they would update the show a bit because once you've seen it once, you know the gags and how it all plays out, so it is a bit less entertaining. Nevertheless, the show still brings out cool stunts and gives you a glimpse into how the world of action movie filming works. Heads up - if it is raining/wet, you will get an abbreviated version of the show where you don't get to see in my opinion the best part of the show - the outdoor scene with the plane and explosions. Not much you can do to control that. There are only a few performances of this a day, so check the daily guide for times and plan accordingly!

This show will be going away soon which is a shame. Screaming out, "cover your heart, Indy" likely won't stop Disney from ripping the heart out of this show. The stunts are still top quality, and you will want to throw the whip to help. If you don't fit this 30 mins into your Disney vacation, you will have chosen poorly.

This is a show showing you how they do some of the stunts for things like Indiana Jones. Fast passing guarantees you a seat and if you show up at the beginning of your time you get center seating. They pull people from audience to help them with the show. We actually have video of the time my dad was picked to go up there and be a village person. We always go see it and this year it felt longer. I enjoy it every time but cannot verify whether they have changed anything or not as I cannot remember.

Such a great show! Teaches the audience how behind the scenes work in action packed movies! With a great cast. Oh! And if you're lucky enough you may get picked to become a volunteer to do some acting and stunts! 30 min long and felt like it blew by. A great addition at Hollywood Studios, make time to attend this show!

Great show every time we're able to catch it. One show you have to see at least once, and that's not even enough. Very interactive show with help from the audience. Random guest are selected to participate within the show. This is an action packed fun time for anyone at any age. Make sure to get online early to grab a great spot inside the stadium seating so you can enjoy a reenactment from the great film series INDIANA JONES!!!!

Still as much fun as I remember from my childhood, plus the added benefit of having my friend picked to be on the set! The stage show has plenty of special effects, neat tricks and gags, although now as an adult you can see them coming a mile away, but you'll still end up being impressed by the skills of the stunt actors. It's a cool insight into some of the work that goes into making an action movie, and I'm sure you'll have fun. Be sure to get there a little ahead of time, since the place gets packed really quickly, and you really don't want to be on the edges of the amphitheater. Don't bother with Fastpass+, I don't think it's very worth it for this particular attraction.

Great special effects and props. I found the show fairly entertaining this is a good use of your fast pass since the line can get long and this will almost guarantee you a great seat center stage. Like any production there needs to be an excessive amount of idle chatter before the show starts and in between scenes to fill out the time slot. Once the show is over the rush to the exit can be a little aggravating so showing a little patiences or waiting for the mad rush to end is advised. For me viewing any of these shows once is enough but worth the effort since attending these spectacles are the reason you paid the admission price into the park so do it.

Still one of the best. Always full capacity and seems to be more popular each time we come. It's one of my boys must-dos. Show runs about 30-35 mins. Good place to get under the top and out if the sun. Expect a good time!

I've seen this show three times! It is always crowded so get there early. The acting is great and everytime I think the big ball is gonna crush him, even though I know it won't! They have so many stunts and the actors are great! They even ask for people to volunteer to be in the show! The show is in an outdoor theater as well!

I love stunt shows and I love the Indiana Jones movies (well, the first three at least) so this attraction was just great for me. It probably isn't as cool or action packed as the Lights, Motor, Action! Extreme Stunt Show, but I think it's a great show...especially for kids who love the movies. On a hot day, when you need to sit for a little while, these stunt shows are really great. You might still be hot, but at least you're in the shade and off your feet. As with the other stunt shows, they do multiple shows per day so work them into your plans accordingly. Just make sure you get there a little early or you'll be sitting too s=far away to get a good view of what's happening. Not a Must-See if you are in a rush, but it's fun if you have time.

If you had to choose one of the two stunt shows at HS this is probably not the smart one to pick. But, if you're at HS during a very slow week then you might have the luxury of doing both in the same day like we did. As others have mentioned this one is certainly on the older and more tired side but obviously with Disney buying all things Lucas not only is this one not going anywhere they more or less just made a multi-Billion dollar double-down bet on the whole concept/franchise. The beginning boulder scene is cool and the ending scene with the "plane" is alright but in between is just so much talking/BS-ing/wasting time that it really drags this out a good ten minutes longer than it needs to be. Chalk this one up in the column of "if you've seen it once you really don't need to see it again" and if my kids for some reason didn't want to see it there is no way in hell I would have smoked a half-hour of our day on this one, again.

Snakes! Why does it always have to be snakes? Get there early to view a fun show. I love all the Indiana Jones movies and never get tired of seeing them. Sometimes on weekends one of the stations will run a marathon of each movie and if it's a rainy day with nothing to do I will couch surf all afternoon and enjoy. Same goes for this attraction as whenever I am in Hollywood Studios I make sure to catch one of the showings of this fun stunt spectacular. Even though the viewing area for this holds a lot of people the stands fill up quickly so get there early for the showing you want to attend. There are only a handful of performances each day so plan accordingly. The show itself is fast moving and demonstrates how they actually coordinate some of the well known action scenes from the Indiana Jones features. From fight scenes with fire and explosions by an airplane, to Indy getting chased by the giant boulder ball, to moments of comedy and stunt-action this is a terrific show to see, especially if you are a fan of the Indy movies. Even with a director and crew explaining the stunts and scene set ups it doesn't have many spots that drag. It's actually interesting to see how they coordinate all of this. They even pick a few volunteers out of the audience to participate in one of the stunt scenes. Worth seeing a viewing each time at the park. Movie magic.
