Movie Reviews of America's Greatest Roller Coaster Thrills: The Ultimate Scream Machines

Movie Review: Don't waste your money
Summary: 1 Stars

If you want first person ride along, don't order this DVD. It only gives you a couple of seconds of riding from the rider's point of view. The rest of the time you are looking back at the riders in the coaster as they scream and have fun and as you ride backwards in the camera view.

Summary of America's Greatest Roller Coaster Thrills: The Ultimate Scream Machines

Taking full advantage of the DVD format, this installment of the Roller Coaster Thrills series offers viewers a choice of two camera angles for each of the 20?rides captured on this disc. Anticipate the fear of that initial heart-stopping plunge with a first-person perspective, or face backward and watch the reactions of the riders--either way, it's a great ride. The virtual tour across U.S. theme parks includes old-fashioned woodies, dual-track looping coasters, and colossal steel mega-coasters with 300-foot drops. Many of the featured coasters were built in 1999 and show off the latest advances in roller coaster engineering; in fact, one launched coaster has apparently garnered interest from NASA engineers for the speed of its propulsion (0?to?60 mph in under 3?seconds). The disc is also packed with special features: amusement park histories, interviews with roller coaster designers, behind-the-scenes insights from director Ned Rodgers and director of photography Dave Cutler, plus Dolby Digital and DTS surround sound, and bonus footage of the first combination roller coaster and water ride. --Larisa Lomacky Moore
