Summary: A Classic. Fun then and now!
Review: I loved this movie when I was seven years old. I still watch it all the time, and my children are going to love it, too. It's so charming! How can you pass up having this classic in your collection? Anyone can enjoy this movie- young kids or adults. One of the DVD collector's must-haves, for sure.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fun and Exciting!
Review: The Goonies is a great movie for kids, as well as adults.
It has humor in it and adventure. The movie has thieves, skeletons, booby traps, caves, underground tunnels, a winding water slide, a pirate ship and a monster with a face only a mother could love. The Goonies is a great coming of age movie and it is great to watch on a family night.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classic
Review: Obviously the woman from Japan who rated this a less than one star doesn't realize the effect this movie had on kids that grew up around the time it came out. For our generation, this is like sushi is to Japan. You can't take the Goonies away. Sure if I saw this as an adult for the first time I probably wouldn't like it, but considering this was a movie I grew up with and have enjoyed since childhood, it will always remain a 5 star on my list. I bought the DVD so I could watch it again and again. This poor lady's child who hated the movie will grow up very sheltered and when the child hits the streets of Tokyo as a teen and has no clue about anything in life and is a loner, it will be because of things like this where this woman won't let her child hear some mild language when she's probably cussing him out at home every day. DON'T MESS WITH THE GOONIES!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Classic Adventure Flick
Review: I remember seeing this when I was about nine on TV. I had never even seen it before, but the commercial advertising it looked so good, I couldn't help but tape it. Of course, I wasn't disappointed. This is probably the best adventure movie ever. I don't care if it is considered a kid flick. Everything about the movie was great. The setting, the storyline, and especially the characters. The story revolves around a group of kids who are about to lose their neighborhood to rich jerk who wants to make the area into a country club. Meanwhile, they discover an old map which supposedly leads to a treasure somewhere in the city. Too bad that in the process of seeking it out, they run into some criminals on the run who end up going after the same treasure. It's great, clean fun. Plus, who can resist that theme song sung up Cyndi Lauper? Classic 80's cheese. This is a must-have whether you were a child of the 80's or not. This film will have appeal for years to come.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Share this with your children.
Review: When I told my dad once, oh, about 1987, that my goal in life was to have a real "Goonie" adventure, his reply was "You watch too much TV." That may have been true, but I think, partly because of this film, I've retained that child-like sense of adventure well into my...Oh okay, my mid 20's! But I still remember childhood fondly whenever I watch this movie. From about the age of 7 until around 13, I was always on the lookout, on some rainy day, for a lost magical amulet or eerie looking cave. And in many ways, I still am. I hate to get political with this, but I think that many Americans have this kind of feeling snuffed out of them once they get past 25 or so. Sure, daily American life can be draining, but this film is one of the things that inspired me to love adventure and learn to live life to the fullest. This is truly a movie to treasure with your kids, if you can get over all the foul-mouthed pre-teens (I always thought it was pretty funny, kids who were actually allowed to curse!).
Watch this movie, love it, treasure it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: whats up with at 1 star lady
Review: whats wrong with that one lady that gave it goonies a bad review. First of all goonies is great movie and second why would you buy a movie that you had never seen not knowing the content off the movie. sounds like another over protective parent.
