DVD Reviews of Labyrinth

DVD Review: I love this movie!
Summary: 5 Stars

I loved this movie as a child and I am now able to enjoy it with my boys as well. It's great for a family movie night! I love David Bowie's music and the muppets add to the fun.

DVD Review: Coming of Age
Summary: 5 Stars

Labyrinth Well made flic. Archetypal, and it ain't easy to sit down and create something that feels like myth. Sarah comes of age when she realizes that 'It's not fair!,'but that's not the point: you deal with it.

DVD Review: SWEET DREAMS
Summary: 5 Stars

LABYRINTH is a masterpiece of set design, incredible puppets , fun characters, lopsided humor, with a charmer of an adventure story. Bowie made a fabulous, seductive Goblin King with just the right amount of menace, and Connelly was a beautiful Sarah. I watched this over twenty years ago on the big screen, and find that I appreciate it even more today. It's one of the many reasons the world still misses Jim Henson, the greatest puppet master of them all. I loved THE DARK CRYSTAL, but LABYRINTH is even better.

DVD Review: Love me some...
Summary: 5 Stars

Bowie; Dance Magic Dance is pretty much the best part of the film. Good quality for the price too and the making of was pretty interesting.

DVD Review: I'm so excited -- preordered the blu-ray version!! When will it be released?
Summary: 5 Stars

I signed up to be notified when the blu-ray release for this movie became available for preorder, and was just notified by Amazon that it is! I preordered it -- can't wait until it is released but can't find any information on the Internet about when that will be!

I first saw this movie in the theatrical version when it was first released so long ago, and I loved it so much!! My children were just small -- when they were growing up we had the VHS version and I watched it regularly (under the guise of letting my kids watch it!) and I know every song and every word of the movie by heart. Now I can have the blu-ray version to show my grandchildren on our new 65 inch TV!! Can't wait!!

Description of Labyrinth

Sarah wishes her brother would be taken away by goblins, but when he really is, she sets out to rescue him and has to cross the Labyrinth before she gets to the Goblin castle.
Genre: Feature Film Family
Rating: PG
Release Date: 5-FEB-2002
Media Type: DVD
Sarah (a teenage Jennifer Connelly) rehearses the role of a fairy-tale queen, performing for her stuffed animals. She is about to discover that the time has come to leave her childhood behind. In real life she has to baby-sit her brother and contend with parents who don't understand her at all. Her petulance leads her to call the goblins to take the baby away, but when they actually do, she realizes her responsibility to rescue him. Sarah negotiates the Labyrinth to reach the City of the Goblins and the castle of their king. The king is the only other human in the film and is played by a glam-rocking David Bowie, who performs five of his songs. The rest of the cast are puppets, a wonderful array of Jim Henson's imaginative masterpieces. Henson gives credit to children's author and illustrator Maurice Sendak, and the creatures in the movie will remind Sendak fans of his drawings. The castle of the king is a living M.C. Escher set that adults will enjoy. The film combines the highest standards of art, costume, and set decoration. Like executive producer George Lucas's other fantasies, Labyrinth mixes adventure with lessons about growing up. --Lloyd Chesley
