I know this is not a popular opinion, but I just don't like this ride. If it is hot out and it is under 15 minute wait, okay, but even then I am riding more to just get into some A/C.
If you like slow moving boat rides, there are many better than this. Splash Mountain, Small World, or hop on the Monorail over to Epcot and ride Living with the Land. If I'm going to wait in line for 45+ minutes I would rather be waiting for Splash than this.
Everyone should ride this at least once just because it is classic Disney, but unless you or someone in your party such as a kiddo loves Pirates I just can't recommend this.
Pros:
Classic Disney, A/CCons:

I know this is a classic attraction, but I wasn't a big fan of this attraction. I found it to be kind of boring. I'm not a thrill-seeker, so I was kind of shocked by this. I usually like a good boat ride, but I just didn't really get this ride. I have never watched any of the Pirate movies, so if there were any references to that, I didn't truly get them. If you or anyone in your group is a pirate fan or really liked the movies, I would say you definitely should ride it, but if not, I think you could skip this ride and not truly miss out on anything important.
Pros:
It's a Disney Classic. You should ride it at least once before you choose to like or dislike it.Cons:
I found the ride to be a bit boring. If you haven't watched the movies, you might not get some of the references on this ride. You may get wet; You have been warned.Reviewed by DisneyGirlMelissa Review Date: 02/19/2024

People who have been on this ride in both DL and WDW, I don't get how you love the WDW one sooo much! It was sooo disappointing compared to DL! Its way shorter, missing multiple scenes and only one drop! I wouldn't waist my time in WDW on this one again knowing DL is so much better. I guess if WDW is closer for you though that it will do.
Pros:
fun for what it isCons:

I know it's a popular meme but, having ridden the Disneyland version of this ride ~7 times in the last 5 years after a lifetime of only riding Orlando's (as a FL resident), the Magic Kingdom iteration is kind of a joke. At the end of it, my mom said \"that's it?\", and that summed up my feelings this time around as well. Anaheim's may only be twice as long but it's about ten times more enjoyable.
Pros:
better than nothingCons:

It’s A Classic And A Must Do, I do like this ride, But The Disneyland Version Is WAY BETTER, I feel like wdw version is missing a lot of what Disneyland has, which is why I didn’t give it a ten, I would mind if it gets a refurbishment, but still a pretty good ride
Pros:
The Ride Is Fun And The Theming Is AmazingCons:
not as good as the Disneyland versionReviewed by SarahB4 Review Date: 04/19/2019

Not my favorite. The animatronics are pretty old, and there's not much relation to the movies. It is a nice cool indoor ride with some neat effects. My pirate son loves it!
Pros:
indoors, classicCons:

The whole family (1 yr old to 65 yrs old) all loved this ride… with one exception. One member of our party can’t handle drops or pitch black rides. We had no idea this ride started with both. It kind of ruined the rest of the ride for her, since we thought this was a simple boat ride. Otherwise, the sights and smells were impressive! And it’s a classic!
Pros:
Immersive sights and smells Classic rideCons:

Not as good of a ride if you’ve been on the one in Disneyland.
