Six Flags Magic Mountain  4 Star Rating - Very good

Six Flags Magic Mountain is a fun place to satisfy your craving for fear, audrenaline rush, and excitement. With the fantastic rides {both big and small}, there truly is something there for everyone of all ages to enjoy. Whether its coasters like Goliath, Deja Vu, Riddler's Revenge, or X, or little rides found in Bugs Bunny World, there is never a dull moment at Six Flags Magic Mountain!

Nothing comapred to Disneyland...  2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

I really don't like Magic Mountain. I live within 3 miles of it and i've only been twice in my whole life. Its pretty dirty, and I don't feel comforted or at home like I do when I go to Disneyland. I just feel like MM is there to make a profit.

Large Coaster Park  4 Star Rating - Very good

If you're looking to ride roller coasters, this is the theme park to visit. It's a very large place, so be sure you're ready to do a lot of walking. The assortment of coasters is unmatched at any other amusement park I've ever visited. The crowds are very large so be prepared to wait in line for quite a while. Also, the park feels pretty run down in places. I don't know why they don't reinvest in the upkeep. It almost feels like they're going to close this place down while they spend a ton of money on the new ride Tatsu... but what a ride it is!... probably the smoothest coaster I've ever been on. I give them an F -- for Upkeep... but an A -- for Rides.
Also, keep in mind if you want to purchase Flash Passes to get through lines a little quicker, you can spend a fortune!!!!!! Disney offers their version of this for FREE!!!!!

fun but crowded  4 Star Rating - Very good

this is such a fun place to go with friends or family. it can get really hot so be sure to wear light clothes. there are a lot of rides and the lines can get pretty long. i definately recommend buying flash passes. they cost a little extra, but that way you get to go right to the front of the line. it saves a lot of time so you can go on all the rides in the park. the new ride, tatsu or something like that... is really fun. also eat before you go since they charge so much for food

Roller Coasters oh my.  4 Star Rating - Very good

Magic Mountain Six Flags is known for its great roller coasters. There are just so many different kind of roller coasters that you can try. The park can get pretty crowded during summer weekends and such with very long lines for the ride.

Food is usually pricey too. Admission price can vary, you can usually find a coupon for it though.

Horrible  1 Star Rating - Unsatisfactory

I drove seven hours to go to this park, and it was a complete waste. More than half the rides were closed, and the most popular ride in the country, Superman, was permanently closed. I was so disappointed with the park that complained to the management and all they told me was "Oh well, tough luck". This place is NOT all it's cracked up to be. Don't vacation to here. It'll be a waste of time and money.

great coasters  4 Star Rating - Very good

Six Flags Magic Mountain is the place to go in Southern California for roller coasters. They've got a nice variety of different thrill rides, all of which are entertaining to some degree. It's not as family friendly as Disney or Knott's, but there are a few rides that would be good for the family. This place is all about the roller coasters, and it definitely delivers. Depending on when you go, it can either be really crowded, or surprisingly vacant. I've seen both. What's really frustrating is waiting in line for an hour for one of the rides, then they shut it down for various reasons...that's happened to me a couple of times at this place. Otherwise, it's always been a fun day. Definitely recommended.

PROS: lots of great thrill rides
CONS: long lines, bit of a drive

OK  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

I went here and I loved the rides but hated the atmosphere. It wasn't the cleanest place, people were using marijuana, and the lines were about three hours long. I got to ride a total of three rides and I was there all day. I got there early in the morning so parking was not that bad, however it does cost a few dollars. It cost to eat or drink anything too. The bathrooms were not that clean. On a scale of 1-10, I would rate it a 10 for the rides (the rides are awesome), but a 3 onc ustomer service and cleanliness. I also wrote management after visiting and I got a call, but they didn't really care that cusotmers were using illegal drugs on the primises or that it was dirty.

Magic Mountain  5 Star Rating - World class

This is probably my favorite amusement park that I've been to. Goliath is fast and has a GREAT drop at first. X is unlike any other roller coaster I have ever seen. Great park.

Best Theme Park  5 Star Rating - World class

Six Flags is the best theme park out there. they have the best rides including Goliath and Riddlers Revenge. They also have rides for the children. I have been to Six Flags many times and i believe it beats all the others. i highly recommend everyone to visit Six Flags and you will see why it is the best.

Thrill rides  4 Star Rating - Very good

Six Flags Magic Mountain is the park to be for extreme rides in southern California. They are infamous for their crazy roller coasters. Six Flags can be pretty hot in the summer so it is advised that one dress lightly and keep hydrated. The lines can be long but most of the rides are worth the wait, unless it's a 4 hour wait, which happens from time to time. The attractions are fun for everybody from young to old. Funnel cake is a must at Six Flags. Rides for recommendation : Batman, X, Riddler's Revenge, and Goliath. Look out for deals and coupons from markets and restaurants.

Long Long Lines  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

Everyone needs to go to Magic Mountain once. They have amazing thrill rides. But be prepared to wait, and wait and then wait some more. We spent all day there, and only actually went on 6 rides. So pick and choose the rides, because most of them are Very scarey... Price is around $30.00 per person.

Top Knotch Coasters!!  5 Star Rating - World class

These coasters are like no other. The rides here have even made it on the Discovery Channel. The weather is always very hot. This amusement park is for teenagers. If you are afraid of heights, this is not the place for you! Unlike 6 flags marine world, there are no animal shows to watch. However, there are performances in their theatre. The most popular show is the dance/drill competition that takes place each spring.

A crowded theme park.  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

Magic Mountain is your traditional high thrills roller coaster park. It is not very well maintained. Their food is expensive, and there isn't a very big variety. They do offer more roller coasters than anyone else though. If you're just looking for thrills, it's a great park. But most of the rides have height restrictions, so leave the kids at home.

Mind blowing rides  5 Star Rating - World class

This park has so many rides! The rollercoasters are definitely one of a kind and you won't find a place with more fun rides. The lines can be a hassle sometimes though, so be careful on what day you go. The food and drinks are expensive though. The rides are by far the best asset in this park, so worth going to!

Great rides.  4 Star Rating - Very good

Six Flags offers oodles of thrilling rides and roller coasters - it seems like there's always a new one opening up. Gift stores are decent, though pricey. Food and drink cost an arm and a leg; but then again, what amusement park doesn't rob you blind? Otherwise, recommended.

Over Rated!  2 Star Rating - Wouldn't recommend

This has got to be the most over rated amusement park I have been to. The prices are high. The lines are consistently long. They do have the best roller coaster, but waiting line for over an hour for each one is impossible. They have well over 10 rides, there is no way to go on everything. I took my kids, spent all day, and successfully went on 6 rides. Not worth your money!

great theme park  5 Star Rating - World class

This theme park is known world wide as the thrill ride haven! Six Flags Magic Mountain features 16 world-class roller coasters and over 100 rides, games and attractions for the entire family. The Park is home to 11 different world records.
You can't miss it. The only thing is that this park is extremely busy so they recommend to buy the tickets at least one hour in advance to your planned ride.

great rides, not great atmosphere  3 Star Rating - Satisfactory

Magic Mt. has awesome rides and it's a fun place to visit, but the atmosphere there sucks. It's not the parks fault, but there are alot of gang members and teens who come here and start trouble. The park has been on the news many times for fights that break out at the park between gangs. I would love to say it's a great place to take a family because the rides are fun and they have a lot of fun things to do there, but it's not exactly a family park. They do have a kids area where there are kids rides and games. The price isn't bad to get in. The park is always offering discounts when you bring soda cans etc.

Roller Coaster Enthusiast's Dream  5 Star Rating - World class

This place was awesome. I highly recommend it for families or anyone. There are some historic coasters here like Collosus and Goliath, but there are new ones like Scream and "X" that have there places in history. Of course, Saturdays are very busy, but if you really want to enjoy it, go on Sundays or weekdays. The wait times on the rides are cut at least in half

PROS: Awesome roller coasters
CONS: Extremely expensive concessions, Looooong wait times

Great Fun!  5 Star Rating - World class

Go for the roller coasters and stay for the funnel cakes. This park has some of the best roller coasters. If your not too scared get on 'X' roller coaster. But save it for last because it will ruin you for all other coasters. At the end of the night, get one of their famous funnel cakes.

Fun For The Family  5 Star Rating - World class

This is a fun way to spend the day, but be sure to wear the proper shoes, as you will do a lot of walking. The rides are fun and there are many choices for the young and old. There are coupon deals to save money, so its a great place to vacation.

Wild Roller Coaster  5 Star Rating - World class

Better than Knott or Disney land. Six Flags Magic Mountain simply have the best and the most roller coaster all around. The best part of Six Flags Magic Mountain is, if you bring a coke, you can get a friend in for free. Also you can get ticket online for 1/2 at their site or at Ralph. Even better if you are a college student, you can get the pass for cheap from your school.

Great place to have fun for the whole family.  5 Star Rating - World class

It's a kool place. I love it. There're so many kool rides.
The only thing i hate is long lines. But the rest is great.
It's a kool hangout for the whole family, but not for little kids though. There're height limits there, so keep that in mind.

AWESOME PLACE!  5 Star Rating - World class

Magic Mountain has some of the scariest funnest rides on the planet! With the new multi-dimensional thrill ride "X" - the Extreme roller coaster, and some of the fastest, tallest, and baddest rides that exists, you'll beg for more! Great prices and 1/2 off deals constantly running, you'll want to go back over and over!

Fun time  4 Star Rating - Very good

I finally checked out Six Flags last week and it was definitely a fun day. Fortunately, my friend and I went on a Monday afternoon, so there were absolutely NO LINES and parking was awesome (though they do charge $9). The park was really clean and well kept. And of course the rides were awesome. The only bummer was randomly you'd be in line for a few minutes waiting for the next go around and they'd shut down the ride... but I suppose that'll happen at any amusement park, but it got annoying when they did it on two different rides that day.

The best adventure park on the planet  5 Star Rating - World class

Six Flags is a place of thrills for the whole family from rides like The X or the little kids area. Six Flags is not a place for little kids in my opinon. My favorite ride at Six Falgs is The X because its so thrilling and crazy. It has loops and turns and it does flips while doing flips. I know that doesn't make sense so you should come and experince it your self. Another great ride is the Goliath. Goliath is a high paced big drop crazy ride. If you like heights then you should try rhis ride out. So come down to Six Flags and experince it out yourself.

For anyone above 11 and below 45  4 Star Rating - Very good

Well, from my title you probably guessed that this is a young folks spot. If you love fast, thrill rides that spin upside down then this is the place to come. If you like slow motion cruises don't bother. Though this theme park is set in Valencia and surrounded by beautiful and scenic mountains the only view you'll get will be upside down. Take your teenage kids here for the day and they'll be worn out on the ride home. Not recommended for anyone older or with a backache.

Very fun place to come if you love roller coasters and all sorts of thrill rides. Beware of the loads of teenagers who rule this facility becasue waiting in line could be torture. The place is very spacious so be prepared to do alot of walking and there are some hilly spots too. Plenty of places to choose for eating and great snack bars all over the place. Don't worry about the heat because they have misters, even in line. Try not to go in the summer if unless your'e a camel.

This is the best amusement park in California. The park is massive, and has the fastest, highest and scariest roller coasters. Some of the best are: Superman, Batman, Viper, The Revolution, and Collosis. There are a ton of new ones I haven't been onthat seem pretty cool too. There are always specials going on for admission like buy one get one free if you bring in a coke can for example so come check it out you wont be disappointed.

Very nice theme park. This place is really more for teenagers and adults since the majority of thier rides are roller coasters or really fast and wild rides. They do have an area for children but it doesn't compare to Disneyland. Very hot in the summer, they do have misters but overall not worth the heat. Come here in the spring and get on some of the rides that usually take an hour or two to get on. Fun place to come with a small group or on a birthday.

This is my second favorite amusement park only because Disneyland is my childhood favorite, but they have the scariest and biggest roller coaster's around and the park is enormous! Prepare to exhaust your self with hours and hours of fun, and don't forget to bring comfortable shoes and clothes,and drink plenty of water because it gets crowded and hot and the lines can get really long. One plus is the mister's they have in the lines on really hot days which helps alot. Highly recommended, you'll havea blast!

This is another one of California's greatest attraction's. Six Flags is definitely the biggest and best of the parks with the scariest, fastest, and highest roller coasters. You can see 'Collosis', a giant white tracked roller coaster way before you get any where near the park just to give you an idea, and the rest of the park is enormous and packed with rides like 'The Revolution', 'Batman', and 'Viper'. You can't miss this park, come check it out!

Six Flags Magic Mountain is awesome! I love every ride I've been on there. It's definitely for a slightly older crowd than Disneyland. My only suggestion is to go at a less crowded time so that you can go on as many rides as possible and spend less time waiting in long lines.

Six Flags is a great amusement park. They have lots of fun rides, and it's an all-around good time. Of course, the tickets can be expensive, but you can usually find a way to get a discounted ticket. Also, the lines can be really long on the weekends. Parking is a bit of a hassle, too, but these are all things that you expect from an amusement park anyway. Good times.

This is a great theme park. I love it because there are so many fast rides and roller coasters. This is actually like an adult fun park. It does have a section for children but the majority of the rides are for adults. The lot is huge and it can be very hot in the summer. They do have misters so you will be sprayed with water while you wait in line. Enjoy the park, you'll get in lots of exercise so enjoy the fried food and ice creams and desserts. Look out for the specials and promotions for park admission deals.

Six Flags is the place to go for the biggest and best of roller coasters! My first upside down ride was 'The Revolution', and it's still one of my all time favorites. I also love 'The Collosus' and 'The Boomerang'. There's a ton of new rides I haven't been on that seem just as exciting. However, there is one I reccomend you steer clear of if you don't want to feel like you have a broken neck for a week: 'The Cyclone'. It's also over a 2 hour drive to get there from Orange County, butI would definitely reccommend this place for a fun time!

An exiciting place for older kids. Primarily roller coaster rides...with very few exceptions. They do offer Buy 1 get 1 ticket free deals from time to time.Food is pricey inside...even though its the same Mc Donalds or panda express.Its not for the faint hearted people
