Rode this on yesterday after a 2 hour wait.
I will say that overall it is a very good ride.
The queue definitely is lacking. That part was pretty disappointing when you compare to FJ or Gringotts.
The launches were a lot of fun, probably the best part of the ride for me. I was in the very back row so the spike wasn’t very fun as I didn’t get to go up much. Both the Hagrid and Skrewt animatronics were not functioning so that wasn’t cool. For some reason I was expecting the drop to have some more oomph. It wasn’t as dramatic as I had thought it would be.
All that being said I’d probably give the ride an 8 out of 10. It’s very good, probably the best HP ride at Universal. However, it’s not even in the same ballpark as Flight of Passage in terms of best ride in Orlando for me.
