Labyrinth has been a favorite since the VCR days. Jim Henson's amazing characters have always dazzled me and David Bowie (r.i.p.) is one of my top 10 favorite artists. Put them together in this charming, entertaining movie and you have a fine story with fabulous imagery. My daughter watched this movie well over a hundred times in her childhood. She and her cousin continue to quote scenes and to name their pets after characters in Labyrinth. Ah, and the fact that Escher's art is featured in the movie is another added bonus for me. This movie is an Icon.

The Yellow Brick Road of Oz is replaced by a maze. And Alice, like Dorothy, has a replacement as well. You can't remake these classics hopeing that a bunch of muppets and a eccentric rock star can improve upon them. Too complicated to understand for kids. Is Bowie suppose to be the Wizard? It should be marketed to adults instead. I like Bowie, may he RIP, but he's out of place in children's stuff and so is the entire movie.

Sarah is a 15-year-old who loves fantasy and make believe. She loses track of time, forgetting that she must babysit her infant half-brother, she runs home only to find her stepmother waiting for her angry. They argue and then her stepmother leaves with Sarah's father on a date, while Sarah remains behind to babysit. Finding her favorite teddy bear missing she storms in her brothers room finding it there. Quoting lines from her fantasy book she asks the goblin king to come take her brother away. The lights flash and her brother no longer cries. A barn owl flutters through the opened window and transforms into the goblin king Jareth who tells her that he has taken the baby as she had requested. Appalled at the realization of what she had done, Sarah begs for the return of her brother. Jareth gives her 13 hours in which to solve his great maze, called the Labyrinth, and find the baby. If she fails, Jareth will turn him into a goblin and keep him forever. The Labyrinth is not a simple maze; the pathways and openings in the walls of the maze change from time to time, and are riddled with logic-puzzles and tests. Sarah acquires companions along the way that are chivalrous and assist her in her quest. Sarah and her friends experience a variety of adventures, including an encounter with detachable-limbed revelers, a detour through the Bog of Eternal Stench, a stop at the Four Guards, a junkyard-like recreation of her own bedroom, and a hallucinogen-induced masquerade ball. At the ball Jareth attempts to keep her until the 13th hour by dancing with her. She breaks free of his spell and makes her way into the castle. Recollection of her purpose with the aid of her friends, she realizes most of the obstacles are put in her path by Jareth, who seems to have become enamoured of her and desires her to forsake her task and remain with him. The film climaxes in Jareth's castle, wherein he makes a final appeal for her to abandon her quest and stay with him. She defeats him by reciting a line from her book. The room crumbles away and Sarah finds herself in the front hall of her home with the clock striking midnight and the barn owl (Jareth) flying away. The film turned out to be a failure at the box office, but all in all I think it was a enjoyable film to watch.Read full review
Labyrinth is a personal favourite of mine and has been since early childhood. It is a classic and I highly recommend it. It's great for all ages. Awesome performances by David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly. Engaging plot and dialogue, fun puppet characters, and very slight suspense.

Huge rock star and a great puppet master! How can you not like it if your a child of the 80’s or earily 90’s. I know there remaking this movie atm but this is a great classic film. From time from time my son and I watch this but as a adult I can’t bear to see Dave Bowie in a protruding front loaded spandex outfit. I know he’s a rock start but come on! Lol. Once you see “it”you can’t unsee “it”. Thumbs up IMO. Hope my crummy 2 cents helps.
