Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Joke of a man... get back to rating starsigns! 20 out of a hundred! I'm guessing Lucas nailed your wife

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

The Goonies is one of those classics that you could re watch lots of times and you would still enjoy it as much as the first time.It tells the story of a group of kids who found a map with an X in it, so they decided to go across their town to look for the pirate treasure they think it's hiding somewhere near them, but they have to escape from the Fartelli Brothers who also want that treasure for themselves. The story is fantastic and is like a teen Indiana Jones adventure movie. The cast is perfect. From Sean Astin's Mikey to Josh Brolin's Brand, all the kids are fantastic in the movie, and they really act like kids, screaming one over the other, insulting each other, doing stupid things and that's a really great thing.The action and the adventure moments of the movie are fantastic. It's just pure fun and entertainment and it sure has some of the best moments of this kind of movies (I specially like the part in the ship and the parts where they're trying to avoid the "booty traps"). The score by David Gruisin does no other thing than increase the fun and adventure of the movie.I would recommend you this movie if you're an adventure-action lover, specially if the movie is set in the 80's.

This could also apply to the reunion of Spielberg, Columbus and Donner but i was thinking to those Goonies kids! I think i saw them on screen when i was 11 during Christmas 85. Then i didn't get it was the new production of the team behind the great Gremlins of the last year but it was again a wonderful time: Chunk was really funny, Mikey got inspiration and Andy was just jaw-breaking (i couldn't speak without blushing!) ! Now i see that this team features LOTR Sam, Indy and Stand by me buddies so the cream of 80s kids: Brolin and Logia are forever cool here... For me, this movie is just awesome because it offers the best afternoon of fun, thrills, adventures we can imagine: it's like a role-playing session with friends (except mine had no girls) and it's much better than animated movies! Those kids lived in a beautiful location, had great values for each other, their parents and this pirate trail is much intriguing than those of Caribean! This movie is so great that today nobody can do the same! The DVD is really stuffed with nice outtakes, commentaries and a short making-of! So forget super heroes, violence and guns, steamy eroticism and hollow animals and be ready for this big magical adventure!
