4/4  A classic.
A classic fantasy movie that really should be watched by all teenage girls, that is not to say teenage boys wouldn't like it. I still love it even now that I'm out of my teens and though I've seen it a million times. A movie about being c... (read full)

3/4  You remind me of the babe...
A great fantasy movie from the late, great Jim Henson. David Bowie is perfect at Jareth the Goblin King and Jennifer Connely is enchanting and sometimes annoying as Sarah. Of course, what drives the movie is the special effects of Jim He... (read full)

2.5/4  Labyrinth Quick Review
I finally saw this for the first time. Despite not being fond of Connelly or Bowie it was still entertaining.

3/4  Labyrinth Quick Review
It may not be quite as enchanting now, but I still think Labyrinth has all the right ingredients for a fantasy adventure. Combining some imaginative Jim Henson creations and a good story, this is a good film for all ages.

2.5/4  Labyrinth Quick Review
Classic Jim Henson, but still not my cup of tea. Interesting enough and I like it when I was a child, but watching recently wasn't a great experience.

I have loved this movie since I was a child and was thrilled to see it on Blu-Ray. It looks as good as one could expect considering it's age. It also has some wonderful extra features. It has the behind-the-scenes featurette that was on the DVD; but it also has an additional 'making of' documentary, a picture-in-picture track featuring interviews with puppeteers and puppet makers, and a commentary by Brian Froud. A great addition to any Blu-Ray collection!

5/5 They don't make them like this anymore

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. Jim Henson's muppetry really puts most modern CGI to shame. This is a timeless classic that should be a wakeup call to all of the garbage that is coming out of holywood these days.

5/5 More than meets the eye

This movie, like the labyrinth itself, is not always what it seems. It has layers, and depending on where you are in your life, it can mean something different to you. It waits for you to catch up to it. On the surface level, Labyrinth is a fun fantasy movie for kids, and in this capacity, it delivers wholeheartedly. It follows a tried-but-true storyline--a girl finds herself in a fantasy world with a quest to accomplish, sidekicks who help her on the way, and a villain that both terrifies and entrances (and sings!). With fun songs, neat Muppet creatures, and plenty of humor, Labyrinth is an imaginative, yet classic, fantasy story that is always entertaining.

And then you grow up a little, and you realize that Labyrinth is also a coming-of-age story about a girl who's trying to grow up but doesn't know how to let go of her childhood fantasies. And that's what I love so much about this movie--it grows up with you. This is a movie about becoming lost in fantasy, about the dangers of growing up too soon or too late. The labyrinth is Sarah's fantasy, and solving it becomes more than just a matter of saving her brother--she also has to navigate her way to adulthood and responsibility. This may be obvious to an older viewer, but the experience of realizing it for yourself and relating to it as you grow up makes the movie something unexpectedly personal and powerful. It never stops being a fun fantasy movie with goblins, but there are bonus layers--what's real and what isn't? How much does Sarah control her fantasy world, and how much does it control her? What exactly does she have to give up? Labyrinth was one of my favorite movies as a child, and it's still one of my favorites, because I never stop relating to it.

Also, David Bowie is awesome.

Labyrinth is a wonderful creation of pure imagination. It's unlike any other movie I've ever seen. It's too bad Jim Henson didn't live longer to make more films. But thankfully he made this one. So light a joint, take a hit, and journey through the Labyrinth.
