Poseidon's Fury

Fodor's Review:

Following a long walk through cool ruins guarded by the Colossus of Rhodes, a young archaeologist arrives to take you on a trek to find Poseidon's trident. Although each chamber you enter on your walk looks interesting, the fact that very little happens in most of them can wear down the entertainment quotient. To reach the final chamber, you walk through a tunnel of water that suggests being sucked into a whirlpool -- hard to describe, hard to forget. Then when the wall disappears, you're watching a 180-degree movie screen on which actors playing Poseidon and his archenemy appear. Soon, they're shouting and pointing at each other and triggering a memorable fire- and waterworks extravaganza where roughly 350,000 gallons of water, 200 flame effects, massive crashing waves, thick columns of water, and scorching fireballs begin erupting all around you. Although the first 15 minutes don't offer much, the finale is loud, powerful, and hyperactive. Is it worth the time investment? That's up to you.
