Labyrinth Review Summary

Reviewers have been enjoying Labyrinth for quite some time, with many of them becoming fans as children. This "journey of a strange underworld with interesting people" stars David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly (Blood Diamond, A Beautiful Mind) in one of her first roles ever. Labyrinth "will capture [the] attention of both kids and young at heart" with "an elusive storyline and captivating characters." A creation of Jim Henson, it utilizes puppets in much the same way, with a "wonderful visual between puppet/muppet world and real people." Many adults that grew up watching Labyrinth still today consider if to be "a classic, not to be missed."

The movie Labyrinth has been one of my favorites since I was a kid. I mean, seeing a movie when I was 2...and STILL loving it 22 years later? That's gotta mean something! There's been some point in time when any given sibling has wished their brother/sister to just go away and leave them alone, but what would really happen if you got that wish? Sometimes you don't really realize how much you're going to miss someone until they're gone. And going through a journey of a strange underworld with interesting people...and things for that matter, can always be fun. And David Bowie was really hot!

I Love this movie. Its one of my favorites, I saw it when i was a little girl. I had such a crush on David Bowie, lol I know! Its a Jim Henson movie so there are tons of puppets, theres tight songs, and a HUGE labryinth! This movie has it all. There are trolls, and faries and a Bog of Enternal Stench. The story has a little "be careful what you wich for" tale in it. This movie is very entertianing! If you like a good maze this movie is for you! I LOVE it!

Labyrinth is a great and different movie.  It brings up memories of my childhood and how I would sit and watch it all the time.  I guess one either likes this type of movie or doesn't right away , there is no middle ground.  I liked it instantly.  I like the characters and the creatures in it.  They made the movie what it is and how I liked the movie.  There were times in the movie that I would chuckle and think it was funny.

my mother would put this movie on when we had party or sleepovers and everyonre would settle down and watch. She said it was the best thing to settle us down. My bother and sisters still love to watch it. Fairytale like, lovable & relatable characters. Wonderful visual between puppet/muppet world and real people. Stars David Bowie as Goblin King. Jennifer Connelly as Sarah the Heroine. And Jim Hensen And His wonderful creations.

This movie is amazing! Jim Henson did the puppeting and David Bowie sang for it, which is amazing.  Plus he wears spandex which is a plus.  *wink* Jennifer Connely stars as a young, angry girl who wishes the goblins and the goblin king (Bowie) would come and take her younger brother away. They do.  Her quest to get him back takes her through the Goblin King's Labyrinth without a moment of missed action.  Don't miss it!

Such a wonderful movie to watch over and over again!  David Bowie is outstanding as the goblin king.  The music is the best - we hunted and bought the soundtrack.  The Henson puppets are amazing.   A young girl doesn't want to watch her little brother but when he's taken she has to find her way through the labrynth to rescue him.  A fairy tale like no other!

The Labyrinth is one of my favorite childhood movies and is a cult classic.  Its enjoyable for people of all ages and I even know people in college who still love it.  It is kind of a bizarre adventure movie that has a tad bit of a darker side--I'm not sure if this is what makes it so inticing or not.  They don't make movies like this anymore....rent it!

This movie is perfect for kids and adults alike. It has an elusive story line and captivating characters. Every minute of the movie is filled with curiousity and wonder. I have seem this movie too many times to count and I still enjoy it every time I watch it. If you can't decide what to watch, then give this movie a try!
