Pros: Fun, entertaining movie. Cons: Could be too different for some people.
I have loved the Muppets since I was a child. Jim Henson, the man who created them, also did other projects with his puppets, most of which I have seen. I recently picked up Labyrinth on DVD to add to my movie ...
Pros: Henson's creature creativity on overload Cons: doesn't resonate with me...but hopefully it will someday!!
It’s very hard for me to believe that a muppet fanatic like myself living with a little brother who is even more of a muppet fanatic should find herself watching Labyrinth for the first time within a month of her 21st birthday. How could I have...
Pros: Many of the effects, David Bowie, the Ludo and Hoggle characters Cons: It seems unsure of what it is, genre-wise.
The Princess Bride was released in 1987, but I saw the title and dismissed it as a movie more for children and especially for girls. About a year ago, I was debating someone over the best sword-fights in movies, and The Princess Bride was ...

Labyrinth (1986) Directed by Jim Henson. I ask for so little. Just fear me, love me, do as I say and I will be your slave. Jareth, The Goblin King. Sarah is an imaginative teen aged girl, ...
Pros: Muppets, David Bowie Cons: The music is so dated that I could explode.
Welcome to the third and final installment of the Elevdado 80’s Write-Off. It’s been three long weeks and tons of research but I made it. And on time too! In case you just joined us, we had to write three epinions on the 80’s. One TV show, one...
Pros: Creative, Good message, Decent effects, Moments of acting, Moments of character, DVD bonus features. Cons: Skewed toward children.
It is a very rare thing that I qualify my movie reviews. After all, I am one of the people who consistently argues that there is merit in comparing "Casablanca" to "The Wedding Singer" and that the rating continuum ought to be between "The Empire ...
Pros: Keeps you watching the whole time. A wonderful movie filled with wonderous fantasies. Cons: Being the time it was made, absolutely nothing.
It is about a young teenaged girl named Sarah (Jennifer Connelly). Sarah likes to dress up and act in front of her dog. She seems to be obsessed with fairy tales and has an odd assortment of plush creatures decorating her bedroom. Sarah even seems to ...
Pros: So old, it's just good fun to watch. Cons: So old, you'll probably be laughing and saying, "Oh man, it's so old."
Years ago in high school, a kid in my art class did a great imitation of a character from Labyrinth, Luto. At the time, I had no idea what he was doing, funny as it was. Since then I’d caught a glimpse of Labyrinth twice, but it ...
Pros: A beautifully crafted, powerful film. Cons: The embarrassment of relating to a film with Muppets in it.
Give me the child. Through dangers untold and through hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the goblin city, to take back the child that you have stolen. For my will is as strong as yours and my kingdom as...
I would yell to my parents every time Bowie pulled out his balls.
Yes, in the movie “The Labyrinth” David has a way of making his balls mesmerize any audience. Oh … what a sick mind you have! Of course I am referring to the crystal...
Pros: The depth, the complexity, the everything. Cons: It really shows its age at times, and some scenes were added just for children.
Give me the child.
Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered,
I have fought my way here to the castle
beyond the goblin city,
to take back the child you have stolen.
For my will is as strong as yours,
and my kingdom...
Pros: Wonderful muppet effects, great plot Cons: None
A friend of mine and I took our sons to see this movie when it first opened. My son wanted to see it because of the muppet-like characters. I wanted to see it because of David Bowie. I've always been a fan of his, and he seemed perfect for this role in...
Pros: Great Movie For Everyone Cons: Like All Good Things, It Has To End
When I was young I watched Labyrinth so many times that I completely wore out the tape. I was unable to get another copy of the video, and therefore was sadly forced to put the movie behind me and move on. I never quite forgot about...
