September 17, 2009Bowie, Connelly, muppets... What?s not to love about this film! One of my childhood favourites and one of many Jim Henson masterpieces.

May 22, 2009Another classic from my childhood. Bowie is cool here (although when I was a kid I thought he was a female hahaha) the Labyrinth is really twisted and cool looking. Great imagination and creature design all round with some awesome classic effects with the good old ways of matte p...( read more)

April 15, 2009A childhood favourite of mine. To watch David Bowie on screen for the first time was kind of surreal. The chaotic narrative proceeds in fits and starts, and the sights and sounds are often dated, but somehow the film's wit and wonder linger in the mind. A real masterpiece of pupp...( read more)

April 11, 2009I really think that I missed out on not seeing this as a kid. As much as I liked watching it for the first time now, I think I would have loved it even more if I would have first seen it when I was younger and could look back on it through nostalgic eyes. Labyrinth seems practica...( read more)

November 2, 2009There are parts of this movie I will never forget. Not sure it's a good thing. "Slap that baby, make him free!"

October 29, 2009Watched it for the first time at the age of 26 and really i should have watched it a lot younger and maybe i would have enjoyed it more. Over all its an OK movie which fun creatures. David Bowie's costumes are ridiculous in this movie.

October 29, 2009Another one of the great 1980s fantasy films that hopefully can find new audiences as well as people alive when they first came out.

October 28, 2007I definitely grew up with this film. When I was about 6 I started watching this because my babysitter owned the movie. It was one of those movies that I could watch over and over again without getting bored. The work of Jim Henson is simply a masterpiece.

August 26, 2007This is one of my all time Favorite movies! I saw it 1st when i was little and never got tired of watching it! even now! i can watch this over and over and never get tired! Im a big fan of Fantasy books/ movies and this movie is all about that!I think that David Bowie is so hot, especially in this movie (only he can pull off that look.) Alot of people talk crap about this movie but i say Screw you, we're watching it! The only thing is even back when i was a kid, I always thought that Sarah should have stayed with him! lol yea im a dork!

August 13, 2007HA i would like to inform all the fan of the Labyrinth how very wrong that review is, Maurice Sendak - DID NOT design in any which way or form the goblin/animals in this movie. Brian Froud is the creator of them. Froud's son (Toby) is also the baby in the movie. and yes i know the baby is called Toby also. if anyone ever bothers to look through Froud's book Goblins they will see each and every goblin in it, that is what 1st tipped me off into looking deeper into the designer of the characters.
