My brother and I watched this movie so many times on VHS that the audio at the beginning was all warped and off. But it leveled out as after the credits.

Sarah has wished her annoying baby brother away, and it's up to her to go into the labyrinth and solve a few puzzles, and avoid some dangers to get him back in a mere 13 hours.

Great music by David Bowie (who is per... read more

Pros and Cons of Films: Vol. 2 (130 movies items)

"Pros: David Bowie Jennifer Connelly The Muppety characters It’s a fun movie, that never fails to be enjoyable. It’s a gateway fantasy film, for younglings. The world building Music by Trevor Jones and David Bowie The attention to detail. Cons: It’s hard to figure out the films exact audiences at times younglings (aged 10-13), or pre teens (aged 14-15). Sarah, for some can come across as petulant and self centred. She does grow over a period of time. Nightmare for the youngling"
