Review of The Goonies (1985) by Dann M — 30 Jan 2013
From Steven Spielberg and Richard Donner comes the classic adventure film The Goonies. Written by Chris Columbus, a group of misfit kids setoff on an adventure to find the fabled treasure of notorious pirate "One-Eyed" Willy.
The cast is just spectacular, and the kids give fun, authentic performances. The set designs are also amazing, with intricate "booty traps" and a breathtaking pirate ship. Additionally, the music of the film is excellent, from the score, which wonderfully captures all of the excitement and adventure, to the sensational Cyndi Lauper hit theme song "The Goonies 'R' Good Enough.
" The Goonies is a thrilling adventure, and a seminal film of the '80s.
