    Um.... not sure what to say about this but yeah.. it was pretty mediocre overall. We went to the show because it was included in the WonderPass bundle. The show starts off with a pretty average animation (looks dated) that somehow explains the creation of Niagara Falls. Not a lot of seatings available and it was kinda boring. The animation is clearly targeted at children as everyone else was bored during the show. We were led to a different room where the "real deal" takes place, after the animation is finally over. It was alright I guess, there's some special effects going on. It was marketed as a 4D show - I mean it kinda is - but don't expect ground-breaking flashy effects. The stage was surrounded by water and mildly shaken 2-3 times during the show to illustrate the melting of glaciers / collapsing of the earth. Since the show was called "Niagara's Fury", we expected a more thrilling experience but it was nothing like that. Everyone had the same "MEH" reaction when the show was over - which pretty much tells you how underwhelming the whole thing is. I guess it will be appealing to families with toddlers under 5. But unless you got the WonderPass package, I'd suggest not wasting time here at all. (well it was pretty short actually so you can totally spend 20 minutes here if you are bored I suppose....)

    Absolute WASTE of time. Please don't bother. You get a poncho, walk into this area and watch a 15-20 minute cartoon about a beaver learning more about Niagara Falls. Then you go past doors for their "interactive" experience = couple of spritz of water here and there and it's done. Don't know what all these positive reviews are about. This "experience" was hardly an experience at all.

    If I have to be honest, I personally would have rated 3 stars. The movie is nice, and then the 4D experience is nice as well. Both are short. However, my kids loved it. And I mean LOVED it. So I'll give it a 4 stars average for the family. It is a nice different experience at the falls.

    It sounds cool but it’s actually extremely disappointing for what you pay for. A short animated video followed by drone footage of Niagara Falls with some water splashed around. Avoid this and use the extra money for something else.

    We were really disappointed after assisting at this "show". The first animated movie with the beaver was cute but not really educational. It is funny for kids though. The other part where you get wet was boring after experiencing the boat tour.. It was not a cinema because you stay standing for the whole 20 minutes. At this price, I would have liked to have at least a better knowledge about how the Niagara Falls were created except "there was ice, the ice melted, water created rock erosion and the falls were created".

    *Burp* Breakdown: 10-15 minute animation featuring a beaver, an owl, and a polar bear. 3/5 Afterwards: Standing on a nearly stationary platform, surrounded by an underwhelming video experience, with a cup of water splashed near the front of the "ride" two or 3 times. Don't be fooled by the photos, rain ponchos are not necessary unless you spill your coffee on yourself. 1/5 *burp*

    This is more of a review for the Table Rock Welcome Center where the Niagara's Fury exhibition is, In other words, the Canadian side of Niagara Falls. The media attraction itself, Niagara's Fury, is nothing very special. It's cute, you watch a 360 degree film and it rains and snows and the floor moves. It explains the history and formation of the falls. The Falls themselves on the other hand, and the whole park, both during the day and at night, are top notch. The falls are awe inspiring. The staff are excellent. The boat ride to the falls was fantastic. The tunnels behind the falls were very cool and give you good insight into the sheer power of the falls. The fireworks and lights at night were magical. A great time was had and I highly recommend.

    Honestly don’t waste your time or money. I didn’t get the hype. There was a 10 minute cartoon in the beginning that told the history of how the Falls came to be…and that was great. Then they brought us into a 360 movie viewing room where they just showed drone footage of the falls (no narration) and splashed us with a few drops of water.

    They spent a lot of money making this "experience", but it was underwhelming. The movie is well-made, but the story is lame. It is implied that the characters that the main character meets along the way are killed after his meeting them. While watching the movie you must stand or sit on the floor like a few of us did. During the second half of the presentation, you are ushered into a second room where you are "snowed" and "rained" on and you experience an "earthquake". It's extremely scary for very young children but short-lived. Definitely not worth the money. Another visitor and I looked at each other and said, "That's it?" He was and older man from a country other than mine, and he said that he was looking for something more educational. I had to agree. I was hoping to see a lot more history of the area.

    This was a great learning experience but soooooooo much fun! We walked through the tunnel to where we could see and touch Nigara Falls. It was water everywhere but the view from under the falls is just simply fascinating. The waters power and vanity are symbolic.

    Amazing 4D experience including water, breeze, sounds with little wait time. Very underrated tourist attraction amongst everything at Niagara Falls. It’s located at Table Rock Centre. Pictures and videos are not allowed inside the theatre. The pictures in this review are from the waiting area outside theatre.

    recently had the opportunity to visit Niagara Falls and it was absolutely breathtaking! The power and beauty of the falls is truly awe-inspiring. Watching the water cascade over the edge and hearing the roar of the falls was an unforgettable experience. The surrounding scenery was equally stunning - the lush greenery, the mist rising from the falls, and the rainbows that appeared in the mist all combined to create a truly magical atmosphere. In addition to the falls themselves, there were plenty of other things to see and do in the area, including boat tours, hiking trails, and scenic overlooks. Overall, I would highly recommend a visit to Niagara Falls to anyone who loves natural beauty and wants to experience one of the most amazing wonders of the world.

    Informative movie on the creation of the falls. Best part is the walk behind the falls and observation deck. Phenomenal photo opportunities.

  • 2/5 Anna W. 10 months ago on Google
    Disappointing if you’ve ever been on other 4D rides. Definitely not worth paying if it’s not included in your falls pass. It’s a 10 minute cartoon film with basic info about the creation of the falls then you stand in a room and watch 2D drone footage of the falls while the floor vibrates and a tiny bit of mist rains down on you. Not even enough to need the poncho provided and a large portion of the screen was damaged showing pink blobs.

    I recommend skipping this one. Lame production for 17.00 each. Stand up the whole time... Packed in a room where you stand holding onto a small bar. In poncho.. which makes you warm and throws a little water at you a couple of times. One of the projectors was malfunctioning. Little children crying because of the faked thunder and lightening. Whole thing is pretty lame and NOT helpful to those who are looking for a place to sit down... Cool off.. And enjoy a movie and some action. It is not going to cool you off... You do not have a seat. They start when they fill up the place so don't think it is going to start on time... Leaving you standing there even longer. Plus going in they have you stop and pose for a corny photo.... After the thing is over we didn't see a single person go to the photo place to purchase it. Anyway... Don't your waste your money on this. But the Tunnel was really pretty good.

    Decent two film attraction. Although, both are very short in length. First film is an educational pixar style animated film teaching about the niagara falls formation since the ice age through the eyes of a young beaver. Second part in another room, Is a 4D film (no glasses) with a 360 degree screen around the room. Complete with moving floor, raining ceiling, waterfall pouring out of the wall and a blowing soap machine simulating a blizzard, and ultra bright strobe lights flashing along with lightning strikes on the screen. Rain panchos provided. A little pricey if purchasing individually e.g. $17 per adult. But worth seeing if having it included with a pass.

    No photographs permitted inside but to me not worth $16 Canadian. It was part of the wonder pass so it was a better deal. It was cool but not that cool. Basically a wrap around cinema that you stand on a moving platform that tries to make you feel like you're flying over the falls a little with a lot of water effects to simulate the falls nothing special to me though. It was neat but that's it.

    Please, oh please, oh please do not waste your money on this disaster of an attraction. Motion floor that isn't sync'd to the video, video projectors that are worn out and some sections are faded, audio that is weak and uninspiring. It blows me away that they must have spent millions building this attraction and it's such a dumpy worn-out uninspired mess. Skip, skip, skip this mess.

    This is really a huge waste of time. The first part was a short cartoon of a beaver learning about the history of the Niagara Falls. Giving it some credit as the cartoon was pretty well designed, informative and cute - hence suitable for children. The second part was an “immersive experience” of the falls, which is really a disappointment as you are just standing on a platform, looking at videos of the falls from different angles, and having water occasionally splash on you. If you do not have time, I highly suggest skipping this attraction. We only went because we had the 2 day wonder pass and entrance to this attraction was included.

  • 3/5 That C. 11 months ago on Google
    The animation work was really impressive, but it didn’t really provide any significant educational value. My main gripe was with the insane $35 they wanted for a picture that they took of us, subtracted the background in some editing software (automated btw) and printed out the image, regardless of if we would but it or not 🙃 Aside from that issue, the audio in the animated portion of the video was out of sync with the video, and two of the screens in the second portion of the attraction were visibly distorted/damaged, but they continued to operate the attraction anyway.

    Not too bad - cute experience and I actually did learn something from this!! I learned how the falls were made. Honestly, the cute video with the beaver at first was almost better, because it's educational. The fury 4D experience afterwards was fine - it was neat to see, and it bumped around a bit while you stand and hold onto the bars. They gave you ponchos for when you get wet, but we didn't get wet at all. It was decent overall, and I'd recommend doing it only if you get the bundle / package with the other things.

    It seems to be aimed at children, rather than adults, though that's not made clear. The "4D motion theatre" could have been good but the immersive video was severely reduced in scale to allow for the equipment to squirt the audience with water. Save your money and do something else.

  • 1/5 Shane Van K. 1 year ago on Google
    Was an underwhelming experience, the advertising of the film gave the impression of this fantastic 4D film, unfortunately it did not live up to it. The duration was 20 minutes with the first half a children’s film about the formation of the falls. Then the second half with the “4D” film that took us I don’t know where, it was ice, then a storm and then water and then boom the falls. Very confusing film. Would have worked better as 4D documentary rather than what was displayed. Personally wouldn’t recommend seeing this film unless you have time to kill.

    Basically a short film, then the ride itself. Didn't plan to go but we had time and it was included in our Niagara Pass. Nothing too impressive for me, but the kids looked like they had fun. Expected to get more wet really. Some seating while viewing the short film would have been nice.

    This was very underwhelming. It plays up to be so much more than it actually is. The animation is whatever, it gives insight on the falls but the experience the fury attraction itself was super depressing. It is a fine attraction all in all but just try not to expect too much.

    We agree with the “meh” review. If it wasn’t included in our WonderPass, we would not have done it. Kids ages 8, 6, and 3 also not impressed. The preshow with the beaver and random ariel views and shaking with rain during the actual show were disconnected and did not actually tell any full story. Recommend hiring someone to revamp this attraction.

    The best way to describe it is "meh". The theater has all the technology to make it awesome, yet it is not. Avoid it unless you've seen ALL the other highlights in the Niagara area

  • 5/5 Tyler M. 5 years ago on Google
    One of the best attractions, this is sort of a special effects show with a short film preshow. Whole experience is about 10 Mon film, 10 min effects theatre. The preshow is a little more child friendly with 3d animated characters, but the effects show is a cool multi sensory experience. Loud rumbling, floor shaking, tons of wind and water effects plus a 360* screen. Families would enjoy it, kids with hearing issues can use earmuffs they supply. Very accessible!

    This was part of our wonder package. It’s a neat little adventure, I would say more geared for youth to enjoy. It’s a short video to start and then you enter a room where you experience the 4D effects with elements. You will get misted with water but not much. Again neat short story which we did find entertaining and fun with our package.

  • 1/5 K E. 3 months ago on Google New
    We waited in a room with NO seating for a while. Then a cartoon came on for the first half of the experience. It was cute and explained the development of the Falls. Sorta. The 4D experience is pitiful! You STAND at a bar with a poncho and watch a long narrow screen go through a quick overview of The falls. It was a waste of money and time. No seating, so if you have any physical limitations you may want to reconsider this 5 minute experience. They ask to take a photo of you at a green screen which comes out like being in the barrel. They tell you it's a "souvenir" and at the end of the experience you are shown the great photo and told it is $45 per picture. Totally disappointed and would not recommend.

  • 5/5 Valerie D. 3 months ago on Google New
    Really cute movie that really explains the balls for children and adults. Along with an immersion video.

  • 3/5 Sheila d. 4 months ago on Google
    This was included in our Wonder package of $49. We went into this large ared to see a film. There's some chairs in there. It's a cute cartoon about the Falls. They give us ponchos which you don't really need. The screen opens and you're in a simulator where you're standing holding on to a railing. The simulator moves and there's splashes of water that hit you. It feels like you're sailing along. It was too short. I wanted more. There was no narration. It's not really worth the price. Kids may like this.

  • 2/5 Michael W. 8 months ago on Google
    The experience was very mild and not that fun of you plan on going to attend if you do not have the pass package. Luckily we had a package that allowed us to watch the 15 minute video. The video before entering the immersive “experience “, was cute and educational about the fall in a basic understanding that can be found on google. The experience was not that great since we never got wet other than the moment when they had the snow effect at the start. Overall not recommended if not with a package.

  • 1/5 Georgia T. 4 months ago on Google
    Not worth visiting unfortunately. We only went because it was included in the pass. You watch a cartoon anbout the history of the falls and then go into a room with a platform and short clip of the falls. Not very immersive, projector screen wasn’t working in some places and overall quality wasn’t great. Don’t waste your time or money, the other falls activities are incredible.

  • 3/5 Dallas S. 5 months ago on Google
    We only did this because it was part of the Niagara WEGO pass. If you're looking at paying separately for this, skip it! You stand the entire time, first watching a cartoon that was very well made and the kids enjoyed it. Then you stand on a platform that has some very minor vibrations and splashing. Some of the screens didn't work. The ponchos weren't really necessary.

  • 1/5 Chintan P. 9 months ago on Google
    Unfortunately lowest you can give is one star. Absolutely waste of people’s money and time. There is nothing like 4D, no story at all, hilarious motions, Please Dont Go and don’t fall for their bundle of 4 items.

  • 1/5 William V. 10 months ago on Google
    Not that great of an experience.... They start out with an animated film then you go into a room with the different effects which is rather boring. It was more interesting watching the other people's reactions than the show. If it wouldn't have been included in the parks pass that we had I wouldn't recommend even going.

  • 3/5 Allyson G. 1 year ago on Google
    If you have young kids, this is a great choice. If you purchased the adventure pass, go for fun. If you’re an adult just looking for something to do: SKIP IT! The video is cute, but short. The “ride” is nothing.

  • 5/5 Nishu k. 1 year ago on Google
    This is such good place to get knowledge about how Niagara Falls was created. The best ever cartoon movie and then finally comes to real adventure. Don’t wanna spoil fun by saying everything. A must visit place.

  • 1/5 Mika L. 1 year ago on Google
    Biggest waste of money of all the attractions we did. I was looking forward to an educational show like they advertised, but it was more like kids cartoon. In my opinion that's not what they advertised. The 4D part was not interesting. I feel like they put a lot of work and money into this and it just didn't turn out. I wouldn't waste my money doing it again.

  • 4/5 Daryl A. 2 years ago on Google
    Fun little attraction that gives you a brief insight on how the falls were formed. Cute, informative video to start followed by a virtual/simulated ride through the Niagara region as the falls were formed, complete with effects.
