The review of this Movie prepared by Bobby Schumer
Sarah (Connelly) is a typical troubled teenager - troubled but with good intentions - who spends her time daydreaming and fantasizing about escaping reality. In a fit of drama, she frustratedly wishes her baby half-brother Toby away to the Goblin King Jareth(Bowie). Upon realizing the reality of her situation, she bargains with Jareth, who is apparently smitten with her, for the return of Toby if she can find her way through the labyrinth to his castle within thirteen hours. Along the way, Sarah encounters a host of fantastic creatures and characters who help her learn that life isn't always fair and that she should never take anything for granted.

Sarah is a teen with an active imagination. She summons the evil Goblin King from her favorite storybook to take her baby brother away. When it actually happens, Sarah must solve a Labyrinth in 13 hours or else Toby will turn into a goblin forever. There's a small amount of romance between Sarah and Jareth.
The review of this Movie prepared by CrystalSister
"I wish the goblins would come and take you away right now", are the fateful words that Sarah, a young girl on the edge of maturity, utters on a dark and stormy night. Never in wildest dreams did she imagine they would actually come and take her baby brother away. And they do. They wisk him off to the land of the Underground, a large Labyrinth in which the Goblin King, Jareth, rules over all. Now Sarah has, "13 hours in which to solve the labyrinth, or your baby brother will become one of us, forever, such a pity..." So Sarah sets off through the labyrinth in order to save Toby before he's turned into a goblin. On her journey she meets a cowardly dwarf, Hoggle, a loveable beast, Ludo, and a noble fox, Sir Didymus, and his loyal steed, Ambrosious.

The review of this Movie prepared by Amanthrael
The main character, Sarah, must, after accidentally getting her baby brother Toby kidnapped by the Goblin King, rescue him from the goblin king, Jareth, within 13 hours. If she fails to do so, Toby must stay in Jareth's land forever. Along the way she befriends several of Jareth's subjects, including a big orange yeti, a cowardly dwarf, and an excessivly noble squirrle-like knight. The songs (by David Bowie) and costumes are incredible, and the puppets are more lifelike than the majority of CGI characters. Sarah, however, is a bit of a ditz and difficult to sympathize with.

The review of this Movie prepared by Lily
A Jim Henson movie about a labyrinth, a goblin King, a young lady and lots of goblins. The Goblin King, Jareth, has fallen in love with Sarah and takes her baby brother away in order to get to Sarah. Sarah must make it through the labyrinth and rescue her brother before the 13 hours are up. Sarah meets lots of charactrs through her journey of the labyrinth and Jim Henson's creatons of the puppets is magnificant! A must for children and adults alike.
