Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show

Frommer's Review

MGM's newest addition debuted in mid-2005 -- and it's a biggie. Taking its cue from the original show at Disneyland Resort Paris, this stunt show features high-flying high-speed movie stunts full of pyrotechnic effects and more. Like the Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular, the storyline has the audience following the filming of an action-packed movie (in this case, a spy thriller set in a Mediterranean village). More than 40 vehicles are used in the show including cars, motorcycles, and watercraft -- each modified to perform the rather spectacular stunts. It's entertaining and certainly offers its share of thrills, but it's not as engaging as the Indiana Jones production unless you're a car buff. Although the outdoor stadium seating is set back from the action, the noise level is extremely high -- and completely unavoidable, no matter where you sit. Very young children may find it overwhelming. The show is part of the redevelopment of the MGM backlot area that's also seen the addition of cityscapes of San Francisco and Chicago, among others. Check the entertainment schedule for show times.
