Universal Studios Hollywood Omdömen 40

Universal Studios Hollywood is great, for most things, and has great people. But they 1. Claim they are a no-tipping park, yet they 2. Allow the Three Broomsticks restaurant (in Hogsmeade) to guilt-tip, guilting people into “tip” at the register—AFTER you pay, before service. When I’ve questioned them, saying I don’t like to have to declare that I will or won’t tip, they say it’s all over the park, a lie, because it’s not. This is an unkind, dishonest way to pressure people into paying more. I’ve discussed it with management; the practice is allowed to continue, guilting customers into increasing revenue.

This park is worth your money. MUCH cheaper than Disneyland, the people are nicer, best show around in Waterworld—ave the back lot tour is THE BEST. It’s real, takes you through movie making history, James Stewart, Steven Spielberg, Jaws, the Metro section…where they film movies. No less than 3 Tyranosaurus rexes Try to kill us on Slull Island, but King Kong defeats them and saves us. But seriously, the back lot tour is real, movie history and in the making… And there are other atmosphere things, with excellent entertainment.

Long lines, no sun shade, but clean facilities.

Universal Studio is involved in a huge money laundering scam. This is the film division.
They run ads on Facebook looking for part time workers to review movie shorts. Once signed up they send you 3 set of films to review and actually pay you $30 US or so.
Next day you pay $50 and do your 3 sets of film review. The catch is there are these films they call Superior films and they supposedly pay up to 33 times the regular pay. When you receive these superior films you cannot move any further without paying for that superior film. For the first 3 days I would pay a few hundred and make a profit of $150 or so. On the forth day these superior films started to get extremely expensive and customer service kept saying don’t worry you will triple your pay today. I ended up investing $2500 that day and was asked to send another $4499 to complete the films and they would send me $12:000 US.
Thats when I figured I was being scammed. I asked for my money back but they refuse to pay it unless I pay $4499. This is a terrible scam. I read a post yesterday where a lady was scammed for $10.000. I reported this directly to Universal Studios and they say they do not have a dept that does this. There is quite a few people involved in this scam. Be very aware if you see these ads on Facebook

The "cast" throughout the park were exceptionally helpful and friendly.
The Back to the Future: Destination Hill Valley was delightful, but the initial directions on what to expect and when to leave were lacking in specifics.
I wore an authentic Starfleet Admiral's uniform from TOS movies, and was acknowledged by the cast as "Admiral", and that was nice; however...The experience of "Red Alert", the 'interactive' experience was extremely disappointing. There was no 'immersive' experience. It had been presented as one which would include you in an episodic experience, but when be transported in a shuttle, you didn't even know you were on a shuttle unless you looked behind you as you exited the area, where a shuttle facade outlined the hall you had walked through. There was no one piloting the shuttle, and all you saw was a streaming starfield, which, evidently, indicated you were traveling through space. After being funneled through sickbay...why? no real reason, you were taken to the engine room where an anticlimactic antimatter surge seemed to correct itself. As 'interactive' guests. you were told, "Don't touch anything", even though the tour videos put out by bloggers allowed to film to lure you in showed guests inputting things into the Enterprise D control panels. You were rushed from one set to another, and barely given any time to take in what was happening. You were just "visitors in danger". Of what?
After being ushered onto the bridge (yes, this set was impressive) we had a thrown-in-your-face 'first contact' experience. The lower area of the bridge was barred and roped off, and only three cast members allowed. There was very little time to take any photos or take in the experience. Universal Studios should have the resources to put together a much more authentic "immersion". I went to the Las Vegas "Star Trek" Hilton several years ago, where it felt like we were truly "transported" from the hotel directly to the Enterprise D transporter room. After what was truly an immersive experience, we were put onto shuttles and 'flown' back to the hotel where we disembarked onto a truly separate area and led down to an exit within the hotel. Universal needs to upgrade their "immersive experience" or I would NOT recommend going out of your way to go there.
My most impressive part of the experience was fellow Trekkers asking to take photos with me in the authentic uniform I was wearing.

was attacked by 3 women in the staff, knocked me out, I woke up without my family in a private room, and the 3 women were striping, I WAS SCREAMING TO HELP, where a big security guard called mark, busted in and punched them so hard, they have face conditions now. Then after that there was a shooting. goodbye.

Dumped Julia Roberts.

Great actor.

Terrible politician.

Stick to the day job.

DEI. Not a good look

The food and the shopping and the rides and the characters magnificent

Great experience and holiday vacation for any family. While the costs do add up, I think the memories made are well worth it. Splurge and enjoy yourself!

I love coming here each and every time. My favorite place and would rather come here than Disneyland.

However, I do prefer the old king kong over the CGI one, but oh well.

VIP experience was amazing in every way, zero wait time for rides all day, amazing food all day, brilliant private film lot tour. By far though, Tyler, our guide was a brilliant guide and friend all day and worked so hard to give our family a brilliant day he is an asset to Universal. We loved everything about it. Perfect

Hollywood sucks👎
Bunch of hypocrites!
And f#$k your racist agendas!

Leider hat sich das Ganze zu einem reinen Abzockerpark entwickelt. 2 Erwachsene und 1 Kind . Eintrittspreis rund 500 Dollar (!!!) Zwei Punkte waren wirklich erstklassig gemacht: 1. HARRY POTTER und die Show "Waterworld" . Alles andere war teils völlig "aus den Jahren" und den Eintrittspreis nicht wert. Mit zahlreiche Souvenirshops und Fastfood versuchte man das Ganze aufzupeppen. Einige "Attraktionen" waren sogar wegen "Umbau" geschlossen. Parkkosten: 35 Dollarchen. Wow. Natürlich werden es die Reisebüros aus naheliegenden Gründen trotzdem weiter empfehlen. Da hat die USA wesentlich Besseres zu bieten als diese Kunstwelt für die vermeintlich "steinreichen Touris".

Great day as haven’t been in a while my kids have been going on their own I just dropped & pick them up have to say a great day but also have to say it’s now a rip off $32 .00 to park the car a day $204.00 plus tax for a two park one day ticket & that is for anyone over three so for a family of four nearly $1000 RIP OFF ps also you have to pay for some lockers between $3 & $ 7 before you go on some rides for a one time use while on the ride also if you go on a wet ride & get soaked & want to use the blow dryers you now have to pay rip off

Größte Müll, Mann zahlt ordentlich Geld dafür und bekommt nichts dafür, Man sieht Schlange 2-3 Stunden. Bei jedem Attraktion. Insgesamt 20 Minuten Attraktion 9 Stunden Schlange stehen. Lohnt sich nicht!

Utrolig fin park - ingen køer - venligt personale og effektiv håndtering

A total rip off,the rides are outdated and boring and who gives a toss about Super Mario a total waste of resources.
Whoever is in charge should be fired

Complete waste of money miserable I couldn’t even beg the kids to go back today. We only spent a half a day yesterday so many people you couldn’t do anything could I had to go to the bathroom without waiting 20 minutes?

Don’t take the V.I.P package. IT’s stealing during the day without white glove. NEVER go there. The staff is stupid and your presence is a losing time for them !!!!!

Go to Disney World without thinking !!! Staff is smiling and the Disney+ is the best to wait maximum 15-20 minutes / roller-coster in the lightning lane.
