This approximately 25-minute nighttime show at the Animal Kingdom’s Discovery River lagoon covers 5 Acts that combines laser lights, mist screens, water fountains, glowing floats, coordinating music, and video projection.
Excitement was in the air when Disney announced a new nighttime show at Animal Kingdom. That excitement lasted until opening night and quiet murmurs of “seriously, is this it?” began to float around cyberspace nearly immediately. So, I had to see what all the talk was about. And. . . all the rumblings were. . . unfortunately, true. The only remotely enjoyable aspect of this show was the costumed characters walking through the crowd, but that aspect has been deleted for cost savings. In my opinion, Walt would not have approved. I believe he would have chosen a quality experience over saving a few bucks. This show is not worth the time when you could be experiencing one of the other excellent attractions around this park.
