Tetrady not as good as all the hype

Supelice Dreadfully Boring

Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Winifred The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.

TheNameBrand It's a great classic of it's time, a film that shows great kid camaraderie strewn beautifully across some incredible sets, resulting in a great ride indeed. You just gotta watch this incredible classic

Pjtaylor-96-138044 One of the quintessential 80s films, 'The Goonies (1985)' is an entertaining ride that's certainly funny at times but suffers from some odd tonal shifts that mean one moment gangsters are literally about to blend a child's hand and the next a screaming deformed man is swinging in on a rope wearing a superman shirt and suspenders. It's this weird mix of the oddly serious and almost sinister, at times (including a number of dead bodies etc), with the slapstick - sometimes downright silly - and sentimental that hinders this flick a bit. It's too childish for adults, yet too adult for children. Perhaps, however, that's why it was so loved in the first place. 7/10

merelyaninnuendo The GooniesThe energy and chemistry among the characters is the strength of this genuine feature that even though has its heart in the right place fails completely on managing to keep the plot on track. Richard Donner needed to work a bit harder on projecting the anticipated vision on screen that is originally written by Chris Columbus and Steven Speilberg. Steve Austin and Josh Brolin are convincing on their parts but the real gem moments are when the group shares it as their mundane conversations. The Goonies is written with high hopes that needed a better editing and detailing on script along with better execution to create the anticipated impact on screen.

bkoganbing I find it interesting that while no film has been made to be a sequel to The Goonies, 3 different video games were derived from this film. Not surprising in that the film itself resembles a video game in that private little world a bunch of kids called The Goonies find beneath an abandoned seaside restaurant on the Pacific coast.The head of the gang is young Sean Astin and acting like a den brother is older sibling Josh Brolin when he's not trying to get something going with Martha Plimpton. Among the rest of the gang is Kerri Green, Jonathan Ke Quan, Corey Feldman, and Jeff Cohen.The kids have an old map found dusty and forgotten in the attic of Astin and Brolin. But also at the same time Anne Ramsey a current Ma Barker has busted one of her Rhodes Scholar sons out of the local jail and they find the abandoned restaurant a most convenient hiding place. So while the kids hunt for the treasure of legendary pirate One Eyed Willie, another group of kids chasing them, the bad guys chasing them all and the law looking for the bad guys, it's all a merry chase.Going below that restaurant the Goonies find an adventure that would be the envy of Indiana Jones filled with all kinds of traps and devices to kill or at least discourage. Obvious that Steven Spielberg borrowed liberally from that film of his to use for this one with juvenile appeal.The Goonies after over 30 years is still great family entertainment. What could be better than watching kids on a pulp adventure they only read and dream about.Kids of all ages.
