John Wick is one of the biggest new franchises in action movie history. After four films released between 2014 and 2023and several spin-offs along the way, the saga created by Derek Kolstad y Chad Stahelski has become quite an icon (thanks to a Keanu Reeves more popular than ever).
John Wick has also spread to other media: comics, video games… and Thematic parks. Yes, John Wick has, since 2022, its own roller coasterand like his own movies, it’s very wild.
It’s called John Wick: Open Contract, and just looking at it makes you dizzy. But there is bad news… he catches us a bit far: the john wick roller coaster is in the park Motiongatein dubai.

John Wick: Open Contract opened in 2022, and is a roller coaster of sorts 4D Free Spin. That is, the seats are next to the track, and they rotate freely on themselves while descending a very simple S-shaped circuit.
The beauty of this type of attraction, developed by S&S Worldwide, is that the seats can swing like a swing and turn upside down at any timeaccording to the sway of the train when falling through the circuit, 36 meters high.

The attraction makes you dizzy and disorienting, but it doesn’t reach great speeds and it really isn’t that original: it’s a cloned model in many parks around the world, such as the Six Flags in the United States (in Terra Mítica, in Spain, there’s a very similar one).
The grace of John Wick’s attraction are the tails, as you can see in the first video: they emulate the hotel Continentaland inside we can see the reception, the files of the assassins, the exhibition room of the crystal skulls of John Wick 3…
Not only that: the entire attraction is semi-hidden behind false facades that emulate a new york streetrounding off an experience that John Wick fans will enjoy more as a “walkthrough” than a roller coaster.
The bad thing is that it is only found in the park Motiongate Dubaiwhich belongs to the Dubai Parks and Resorts chain, and which is the only one that has Lionsgate film licenses (as well as others such as Dreamworks or Columbia).
In that same park, for example, you can ride attractions from movies as diverse as Now You See Me, The Hunger Games, Madagascar, Zombieland, Ghostbusters, Smurfs…
The attraction of John Wick It’s not the best in the park (the best roller coaster is Capitol Bullet Train, based on The Hunger Games), but for fans it’s a real treat, especially because of the theming of queues and building. would you like to go to Motiongate Dubai to se her? So start saving…
