This cinema has the added bonus of having 2 films on offer, showing at various times of the day, almost making it two different rides in one. If you look at the two different scores you'll realise one film is superior to the other.

It calls itself a 4D cinema, which refers to interactive special effects like a smoke and snow machine. However I don't think these effects work very well, all they seem to do is distract you from the film experience.

One problem the films here have is that there's no speech in them. I think this is so the films can be shown in Legolands around the world, with anyone visiting easily able to enjoy the film. This is apposed to the more common method which is to do the film in English (or more accurately American) and put up subtitles in foreign countries, I guess they haven't heard of dubbing. The lack of speech is a major problem in the X-treme Racers film, as it means there's hardly any involvement with the characters in the film as a consequence. This accompanied by a plot which is basic by Saturday mourning cartoon standards makes it feel like your watching a long pop video, and not a particularly good one either.

 

The Spellbreaker 4D film is a noticeable improvement. It's still a children's cartoon, but a good one which adults can still enjoy. The plot, although still basic has more substance to it, and there's more expression by the characters to make you feel more involved in the telling of the story.

If you can only catch one film it should definitely be Spellbreaker 4D, it's a good overall experience that's definitely worth catching. The X-treme Racers doesn't offer anything the other one doesn't do better. It's worth a look once if you have a chance, but the Spellbreaker 4D is the one you'll be coming back to.
