Ratings and reviews

"Hey you guys!" As a kid, I - and quite a few of my peers - really wanted to be a Goonie! But which one? For me, I was always the Sean Astin character, the dreamer, the idealist...the loner! This movie now looks so dated but still retains its fun charm as a group of children hunt for treasure. For more, read the full review: bit.ly/TheGoonies1985

Google still charging extra for 4K - and not upgrading existing purchasers to 4K - and not offering any upgrade path for anyone actually willing to pay. I'm starting to wonder if they want the play store to succeed....

Cult Classic adventure that not only sparks creativity and imagination but one that executes that feeling we all had as children extremely well. The movie never gets old, I could watch it on repeat for the rest of my life and never get bored. A wonderful cast of characters that you genuinely believe would be best friends in real life, witty dialogue and some nice set pieces all combine to create an unforgetable adventure.
