Pros: Fast, fun, and funny; great musical score and brilliant sets... Cons: ... cliched, hackneyed, etc (but who cares when it's this much fun!??!?)
The Goonies is a fairly old film but I’ve never actually seen it the whole way through until tonight. It revolves around a group of kids – who call themselves “The Goonies” – who get caught up in a great adventure involving ...
Pros: Fun, mostly family friendly adventure movie. Good cast. Cons: Can be silly in places. Predictable.
There were several movies that were popular when I was growing up that I did not see at that point for whatever reason. I have seen some of them since then. It was probably about five years ago before I first saw The Goonies< b>< i>, an adventure ...
Pros: well crafted story, funny and exciting, works for the whole family, chuck, cast Cons: none
Steven Spielberg has always known exactly what audiences are looking for, and when he wrote up the story to The Goonies he must have known that it would become a success. With the added talents of screen-writer Chris Columbus and Director Richard ...
Richard Donner, director of such classics as Timeline,
and Conspiracy Theory... Wait a second maybe he's not the greatest director afterall. Well he must be getting old or something because back in the ...
Pros: Good old-fashioned mid-eighties Spielberg fun. Cons: You'll feel like you're babysitting...only you're not getting paid.
It's a dangerous thing to re-visit movies that were childhood favorites. For every one that stands the test of time (such as Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory), there are handfuls of other ones that make you a bit embarrassed at your...
Pros: Too many to name! Very funny and brings back 80s memories for me. Cons: None.
Who can believe in was almost 20 years ago that I saw Goonies at my local mall in the summer of 1985? I was only 7 at the time, but this movie is a classic to our Generation Xers. Hopefully they’ll replay this at theatres next year for a special ...
Pros: Youthful cast, production design Cons: Not for critical snobs
In the tradition of great kiddie movies like "Flight of the Navigator" and "Home Alone" is Richard Donner's "The Goonies". Donner's film about a group of kids on an adventure to try and save their neighborhood has become something of a cult classic...
Pros: Fun in a juvenile way. Cons: Juvenile in a not so fun way.
The producers of the What a Friend We Have in Cheeses campaign for the American Dairy Council have given me a deluxe new motorhome for travel to the Appalachian locations where we are filming this week. As befits a star of my stature, there’s...
Pros: Fun filled adventurous story. Cons: Some language.
I’m not afraid to admit, that at the ripe age of 10, The Goonies was my favorite movie of all time. Now some, um, 18 years later I had the opportunity to catch my old classic on cable and I’ll still say it is one of my favorite movies of all time. ...
Pros: Very fun and exciting to watch; kids act like real people; timeless Cons: The whole premise is illogical; many holes in the story
Filmmakers know children have the wildest imaginations and the greatest spirit of adventure, but few are able to make movies depicting that sense accurately. What makes "The Goonies" so good is the fact it epitomizes that innocent feeling with a grand ...
Pros: The quintessential childhood adventure movie of kids who grew up in the eighties Cons: A few unbelievable moments, but can you fault that?
I grew up in the eighties, and I think "Goonies" is the quintessential childhood adventure movie of this generation. When I first saw it all those years ago I loved it and, having seen it again just a few days ago, I remembered why. This ...
Pros: Classic 80’s Children Movie, Characters, Comical, Action Packed, Campy Cons: Errors are far too many, the movie ended too soon. No Sequels.
Everyone in pop 80’s culture probably remembers “The Goonies”, for the better or the worst, as they would remember the name Madonna. It is a movie most people have heard of, yet as broad as its mass attention was, the movie received mixed ...
While this movie came out while I was growing up, I still find people quoting from this movie all the time. While it's editing job in the original VHS version has a few mistakes (including a bit of dialogue still in the movie which talks about scenes...
Pros: Adventure packed, fast moving, eyes glued to the screen type movie. Cons: Loads of profanity, which is sad since the movie would be great for all ages.
Childhood memories are held dear by all of us, especially if they were made with someone you love. What in the world does that have to do with Goonies you ask? In 1985, my dad took me to my first movie, which remains one of my favorites today. I was...
A thrill-a-minute adventure film. When brothers Mikey Sean Astin and Brand Josh Brolin learn that greedy developers are forcing their family to move t...More at Family Video
