Other than a few mild curse words, this movie was completely family friendly. I agree with the other viewers that some parts can be frightening for younger viewers, but use your descretion. My 6 year old was fine watching it (she has seen Harry Potter also). My kids give me a really hard time about picking these movies from the 80s because they feel they are dated or cheesy. They absolutely love this movie and asked me a million questions about David Bowie. I think my 11 year old has a crush on him now. This movie has great messages for young kids about life and independance, as well as overcoming challenges in life and not giving up.

Labyrinth is a good family movie that kids would enjoy. Some younger kids may get scared in some parts such as when Toby disappears. There is also infrequent language, but only d-words. It is a great movie and since Jim Henson directed it...there are Muppet characters! Also, if you like David Bowie, he is the Goblin King! Great family film!

This used to be one of my favorite movies when I was a kid! I was 3 when I first saw it...Sometimes little kids get scarred of weird looking puppets - but that's because most little kids think movies are real. I watched a lot of movies that would be considdered 'scarry' for little kids, because my dad would always watch the making of the movies first, so I would see it wasn't real... Now for tweens, teens, etc - it is so on - not scarry, & really, there's only one violent scene..But its puppets-so umm..Kind of not the same...It's a pretty good movie :) Sarah does complain a lot, & that's not really a good role model - but the rest of the movie is fine...The goblins are all puppets, & don't look very real at all, so...There's also some pretty cool songs {yea I still like 'em-lol}

really good movie. i love it.david bowie is awesome!!! there is no violence in this movie.

its too creepy for children

I love this movie, and always have. I put the age limit at 2 years or above because I think that it does not depend on age as much as this film depends on maturity. It can be scary for young children (as can most films). This film shows endurance, courage, and many other excellent themes. I thought it was funny and would recommend it to adults and minors alike due to the vibrant story-telling and puppetry. Being as it was the last film that Jim Henson directed before his passing, it encompasses a lot of ideals that he held. Some of the messages (besides the ones I listed above) are the importance of telling the truth, never giving up, and many more. This movie will always strike a chord in my heart, and when the day comes, I will be proud to show it to my future children and grandchildren. By the way - if you like this then I recommend 'The Dark Crystal,' which was another beautiful Jim Henson film.

i saw this movie for the first time when i was five and loved it from the first moment in the beggining credits with the owl and the really great music the only bad things in it are the goblins, and thats only because really little kids get scared of it. I recommend it for 4 and up... a definite family film!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have only seen part of it, and that was when the infant gets stolen and the goblins make a mouth of their hands, and the boulder comes. The I Will Sing Of The Mercies Of The Lord song reminds me of the film.

The only part I thought was kind of weird was that part where that stinky spot had such a scary name. But it wasn't really...it didn't have a scary death at all. It just had where you go into it, it just makes you stinky. That's it. Lucy, 6 years old.
