Batman the Ride • Six Flags Magic Mountain

Inversions Intensity Layout Too short

Typical batman clone, need i say more?

Inversions Pace Intensity Too short

It’s very whippy, which I love, but not as whippy as some other inverts. The only other batman clone I’ve done is the Great Adventure one and I like that one more.

Headbanging Discomfort Intensity

We rode this when most coasters in the park were closed, so the wait time was reasonable. On paper, the layout is pretty good and creative, and theming is excellent, but that’s really all it gives. First drop is slow, loops are underwhelming, and when it gets intense in the second half you can’t even enjoy it because there is so much head banging. I only went because literally 2 rides were open, but apart from the Batman diehards who will love the theming, please skip this.

Inversions Nice surprise! Intensity

I first went on this when I was 9 years old in 1996. I remember going on it and humming "Disco Train" from Donkey Kong Country 2. Nice compact ride with killer inversions and G-forces. I miss the entire Gotham City Backlot area.

Inversions Nice surprise! Pace Capacity

Only one train running, but fairly efficient ride ops.

Fun Intensity Layout Rattle

It’s an intense invert with some amazing moments. It’s fast paced, it’s fun, and it’s got a great layout. The rattle isn’t too big of a problem for me.

Nice surprise! Fun

This ride was nice but didn't leave much of an impact. Honestly, I was just on it yesterday and I'm struggling to remember much about it. Granted, it was 103 degrees so maybe my brain was just fried by the point that I was on it. I'll likely write more about it when I ride it next, but I'm glad to see this ride reopen now that Wonder Woman is complete!

The off-the-shelf Batman coaster that you see at most Six Flags parks. It’s a fun ride, it really has some great moments. It’s fast paced and intense, and I grey out on it depending on where I’m sitting. Either way, it’s an enjoyable experience. I really don’t think the head banging is all that bad, the worst part is probably just the generic layout.

Inversions Intensity Too short

I don’t know why, but this invert just didn’t do much. I rode it 2 years ago and I really enjoyed it. I rode it yesterday and it was just ok. It was a short ride with decent intensity, but I just felt like it didn’t do anything special.

Pace Intensity Layout

Intense invert with rapid fire pacing. The final two corkscrews are so intense that I always get off the ride feeling dizzy, but in a good way! I’ve heard friends complain of a rattle, but especially with the new paint job I find it to be very smooth, even after nearly 30 years of run.

Inversions Fun Intensity Too short

This ride represents just an above average invert. While it shows great instensity in the helix’s and inversions, it is an extremely short ride with the layout showing nothing special.

Inversions Intensity Smoothness Too short

Talk about an intense B&M, it may not have an original layout but this layout is efficient, intense elements, and great pace throughout the whole layout

Theming Inversions Intensity

Ride ops where getting slower and slower as the park got busier and I sadly sat on an inside seat row 3. Still very intense with its fast paced inversions that left me with all the blood in my legs! I was much younger when I rode Batman over Georgia so it’s hard for me to compare the two now but this was a solid mini B&M invert 4/5 One of the better themed lines and ride here

Inversions Comfort Intensity Too short Layout

While it is a very short ride, and it is a clone, it is still a very fun ride that is very intense.

Intensity

Very forceful with some added theming. One of the better and more intense Batman’s out there for sure.

I love inverts and this is the only batman clone I've ridden, so maybe when I ride more I'll appreciate it less. Anyway, it's extremely intense and every inversion and turn is pretty amazing, along with it being butter smooth.

Theming Discomfort Intensity

Honestly, on certain days I consider this to be the most intense ride at Magic Mountain. The first half isn't so bad, but once you get to the corkscrews, the intensity turns up to 11. Personally, I don't like the intensity on this ride because it can be so much that it is very painful for my legs. It still has its fans and is a fine supporting coaster.

Pace Intensity

The ride is very fast paced and throws you into the inversions with some force but its also pretty smooth like most B&M inverts.

Capacity Pace Intensity Airtimes

Potentially the most forceful of any B&M, one of the best versions of this clone, runs insanely well for its age and has a relentless fast paced ride experience.

Inversions Intensity

Batman is an extraordinarily intense ride. It is relentless from start to finish. This can cause some discomfort through the corkscrews, but it wasn't enough to cause headbanging. It's a little short, but not excessively so. Very good ride.

ふつう

Inversions Intensity Rattle Too short

This ride has been cloned SO MANY TIMES. Even though this is the first Batman clone I've been on, I'm still giving it four stars, knowing that I will have to ride it a million more of them in my near future.

Theming Inversions Intensity Rattle

Probably the most cloned coaster in Six Flags history, Batman: The Ride still has a lot to offer to its riders despite its age. This B&M Invert's heartline and corkscrews are still as fun as it was when it opened back in 1994. There's a reason these coasters were put in basically wherever Six Flags could manage to put one. One little word of caution, the anti-rollback mechanism on the lift-hill is INSANELY loud; you might want to cover your ears a little if you like your ability to hear.
