(517 customer reviews)

You may be surprised to discover that the director of the Lethal Weapon movies and scary horror flick The Omen, Richard Donner, also produced and directed this classic children's adventure (which, by the way, was written by Donner's screen-wizard friend Steven Spielberg). Then again you may not. The Goonies, like Donner's other movies, is the same story of good versus evil. It has its share of bad guys (the Fratelli brothers and their villainous mother), reluctant-hero good guys (the Walsh bothers and their gang of friends), and lots of corny one-liners. Like in an old-fashioned Hardy Boys or Nancy Drew plot, the Goonies need to solve a problem: a corrupt corporate developer has bought out their neighborhood and plans to flatten all their homes. Luckily, the beloved gang stumbles on a treasure map. In the hopes of finding the treasure to buy back their houses, the Goonies embark on their quest through underground passages, aboard pirate ships, and behind waterfalls. This swashbuckling and rollicking ride was also a great breeding ground for a couple of child actors who went on to enjoy numerous successes in adulthood: Sean Astin (Rudy, Encino Man) and Martha Plimpton (Pecker, 200 Cigarettes). --Samantha Allen Storey

The Goonies on Blu Ray?? Aug 16, 2010
This is NOT the U.S. version of "The Goonies" on Blu Ray!! Amazon, you are really starting to upset me as a long time customer. I have purchased many items from Amazon in the past. I am to the point now where I can't trust what is being put on your site as correct information. This product states "CLOSEOUT: The Goonies Blu Ray" which gives the false impression that the Blu Ray is going out of print. NOT TRUE! The BLU RAY OF "THE GOONIES" WILL RELEASE ON NOVEMBER 2, 2010!!
Amazon, Why not put that up with the listing for THIS blu ray disc? Are you deliberately trying to STEAL from your customers? This is not the correct way of doing business. Tell us the truth and we will stay loyal. Lie to us, and we will go to a competitor.

Goonie 4 Life! Aug 15, 2010
I too am a true Goonie. A few years back I travelled 2,500 miles just to visit the Goonie house (and Data's house) in Astoria, Oregon. Searched for the rock formations off Cannon Beach, found the jail (then a museum) where the Fratelli's were, found the museum (then a library) where Mr. Walsh worked. This is my favorite movie of all time. (Followed closely by Big Trouble in Little China). This is a classic, by all standards. Bought this 25th Anniversary edition today and I can't wait to see it!

Read Before Buying 25th Anniversary Goonie Fans!!! Aug 05, 2010
I have not seen or purchased this new 25th Anniversary version of the Goonies being released on DVD and Blu-Ray. I do however know alot about it from the Digital Bits. First off, I am a Goonie Fanatic. It is my favorite movie of all time and I even took the time to visit Astoria Oregon and went the goonie house and other locales when I was on the west coast a while back. To say I wore out the special edition DVD release is an understatement. So when I heard about this new version I was beyond euphoric. I was crushed though when I read what Warner Bros is prepping for said 25th year version. They are basically repackaging the DVD we all have with a new remaster and adding a board game(beyond lame), some promotional magazines(I will take those) and I think a few trading cards or trinkets If I can remember, that's it. Nothing more. Come on Warner Bros, where are the rumored deleted scenes such as the goonies oath scene, the second store visit, the data intimidator scene, the leech scene, the gorilla scene, and extra dialogue. Also how about seamless branching so we can watch the goonies with the existing deleted scenes back into the movie. And it wouldn't hurt either Warner Bros to throw in a new commentary or documentary. The goonies has one of the most rabid fan bases of any movie in history and I feel this is shameless double dipping. I'll probably cave in the end only for the new Blu ray transfer but I'm confident writing this review which is way before release that they dropped the ball big time on this one. 5 stars for the movie (ok 10 stars if Amazon would let me) 2 stars mostly for the yet unseen transfer and extras. PS, sorry for the bad spelling and grammar.

The truffle shuffle in hi-def? Awesome Jul 31, 2010
Glad I picked this up. I can remember when I was younger and saw this in the theater. Just an all around great movie for kids although I do believe there are a few bad words it has a great story and all the elements to hold a 10 yr olds attention. Who has never entertained going on a treasure hunt? Looks great on bluray!!
