This weekend my brother& I( along with our families) went to Innovative Film City( IFC). Thanks to Mouthshut, we focused only on those attractions others found good.
Here are my views: The park is just after Wonder-La and you need to take a detour to the left( while going to Mysore from Bangalore). Its approx 45km from Bangalore on the Bangalore - Mysore highway. Most visitors have come in their own cars. I dont think there is any public transportation available for this place.
Perhaps IFC should arrange for City pickups. The parking is ample given there is a wide road in front of the park. There are two options for tickets. Rs 50/- per person as entry+ A la carte attraction fees OR a Package of Rs 699. The package might have attractions you dont like or may not have time to cover during your trip. Hence I suggest you take the 50/- entry fee+ pay for the attractions you want to cover. You can always buy tickets later for more attractions. 1. Mirror Maze: This is a novel idea and certainly will be interesting for the entire family irrespective of age.
My brother asked the attendent for help as he gave up too quickly. VERY GOOD 2. Ripleys Believe it or not: Some items in this are good and kids will certainly find this interesting . The revolving cylinder, Ghost, Tap with running water out of nowhere. GOOD 3. Tussads Wax Museum: AVERAGE. They should have more Indian personalities here as most visitors could not identify with Humphrey Boghart, Frankenstein etc. 4. 4D Movie: VERY GOOD. The 4th Dimension is SENSE. I had seen this in Universal Studios, Orlando, FL and this is equally good. Highly recommended. 5. Gokarting: On a hot day, one will find this borning even though there are crowds. I guess this is something one finds in every amusement park worth its salt. AVERAGE . The family ticket is for 2 PEOPLE!( This is India, RIGHT?) AVERAGE 6. Aqua Kingdom: This is a big disappointment as the Pond/Lake/Pool is so small with so many people trying to find their space in water- reminds me of Bangalore Traffic. The water is dirty, even though the staff try to clean it. The waves are OK . Our kids liked it though. We did not cover Cartoon City( no time), Miniature city( Bad word of mouth) and Touring talkies( may be this was meant for foreigners) Overall, we found IFC above our expectations and I CERTAINLY RECOMMEND THIS OVER WONDER-LA where you may get tired of rides.
