Not good....
We were excited to watch this with our kids but had to turn it off. Too many inappropriate situations and way too much swearing. Probably not a movie we will watch when they are older either...

Great adventure for kids! (If you know your little ones well)
I have two boys (4 and almost 6) who are very mature for their ages. They both LOVE this movie like anything else having to do with pirates. At this age, some of the more suggestive / inappropriate moments are over their heads and so are not a concern. As for the language, it's all in passing so if you don't make a big deal out of it they won't either. Introducing this movie to my young boys gives them a marvelous adventure to live through vicariously. It also shows them a good group of role models who decide to work together to protect their parents and families from rich snobs who care little about the people "beneath" them. As they grow, I'm sure they will begin to notice some of the more mature aspects of this film. Any parent who has open lines of communication with their children will welcome this as an opportunity to discuss these issues. I rate this movie as iffy for ages 4 and up because it can be a great movie for younger viewers if you really know your kids.

The Goonies
I think it is an exellent 80's film. following a 1663 map into a spectacular underground passage, its got booby traps and wonderful scenes.Athough I have rated The Goonies as a 12, the film has a few mild swearing like s*** and cr** and may not be suitable for viewers unless parents allow or accompanied by an adult.

It was a good movie, but there was too much swearing that may be OK for older kids. But otherwise, it was a good movie - some of the characters were really funny and it was an exciting story. There were lots of scary scenes and a weird-looking creature. Reviewed by 9-year-old boy.

The Best! An instant classic
Kids that dont get scared easy love this movie! I loved it, It was a little freaky when the obese kid was stuck in that freezer with that dead guy, but besides that I was rolling on the ground laughing! Not recommended for kids that get lots of nightmares and get scared easy.

Great Kid friendly movie!
Swearing is not a big deal! I saw this when I was 4 and it is still one of my favorite movies today!

In general, pretty good
I watched The Goonies as a 2-year-old, but then again, I didn't know what all that stuff meant. I'd say it's pretty good for 9+, and for some mature 8-year-olds. It has a good theme of working together.

Movie jacket ratings need adjustments I believe.
I can't rate it since I never got to see it completely but to submit I had to fill in the information so it is not truly a fair review.After the seen of a nude statue and the kid walking with genitalia from the statue in his hand that was broken off and then a drug conversation about cocaine I turned it off quickly.Not quite the topics of conversation for an 8 year old.I wish I knew before bringing it home.Now I realize I can't trust the ratings on the jackets I research first.

classic for over 10 years old...
Was a classic movie from my older kids and my past...I decided that my 7 year old was ready to see it and not be scared..however after sitting through it and listening to the many "shut up" and other words used, I would definitely suggest waiting for other to wait until at least 10 years old.

Full of adventures!
In ''The Goonies'', the ''S'' word is used 19 times. Mouth (a character in this movie), swears alot, but he is the funniest character in this movie! Mouth is my favorite character in The Goonies! This movie teaches eeverybody about friendship, love, adventures, and standing up for what you believe in.

GREAT for big kids, but keep out of reach for small children. ;)
I decided to finally let my almost 8yr old watch it with me, but we talked about everything the whole way through. I definitely won't let my 2, 4, & 6yr olds watch it until they're older, but I love this movie and think it's a great and fun movie for 7 or 8 and up. It can get a bit scary, though.
