My Thoughts:
I seen this on cable a while back... and always wanted to add it to my collection eventually. Luckily it is one of the discs that was in one of the latest boxes of DVDs that were given to me. While it has a few slow spots... I mainly find this one very entertaining. It gave me quite a few good laughs. I am glad I finally got this one in my collection.

My Rating:
Out of a Possible 5

Labyrinth, a review by Dragonfire




Journey into the fantastical world of Labyrinth, starring David Bowie and a cast of incredible creatures created by Jim Henson and produced by the Master of Myth, George Lucas! Frustrated with babysitting on yet another weekend night, Sarah (Jennifer Connelly), a teenager with an active imagination, summons the Goblins from her favorite book, Labyrinth, to take her baby stepbrother away. When little Toby actually disappears, Sarah must follow him into the world of the fairy tale to rescue him from the wicked Goblin King (Bowie)! Guarding his castle is The Labyrinth itself, a twisted maze of deception, populated with outrageous characters and unknown dangers. To get through it in time to save Toby, Sarah will have to outwit the King by befriending the very Goblins who protect him, in hopes that their loyalty isn't just another illusion in a place where nothing is as it seems!

My Thoughts

I had just seen a little of this on television years ago, but I kept wanting to get it because of Jim Henson's involvement.  I am a bit partial to anything he's done, especially the Muppets. The movie is very entertaining and all the puppets work wonderfully well.  The movie isn't the most realistic, but I expected that before watching it and I still really enjoyed the movie.  It is unique and entertaining.  David Bowie was good as the Goblin King and Jennifer Connelly did well as Sarah.  There are several songs throughout the movie which is normal for many of Henson's projects.  There is a decent amount of adventure with everything that was going on which helps to keep things interesting.  The pace might seem a bit slow for some people, but I wasn't bothered by it.  There isn't a lot of character development, but that worked out ok overall I think.  I do like the movie.  It is a good, family friendly movie, though a few things might bother younger children.

 ;D

I did get a review posted on Epinions if anyone wants to take a look.
