61/100
"Donner's direction of Spielberg's tale is noisy, choppy and surprisingly pedestrian."  Apollo Guide  Dan Jardine

3/5
"A contemporary equivalent to the Hardy Boys adventure tales."  Spirituality and Practice  Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

1/5
"Loud music, even louder kids, loud sound effects make for one of the most annoying motion pictures ever made."  Sci-Fi Movie Page  James O'Ehley

5/10
"...lacks charm, wit, or warmth, yet appears to remain a hit with children because of its frenetic pace, slapstick gags, goofy characters, and slightly naughty language."  DVDTown.com  John J. Puccio

"Whether it's an organ that threatens death if the wrong note is played, a wishing well that talks back to you or a pirate ship, the surface of The Goonies is all about a child's innocence and faith in the unlikely."  Movie Views  Ryan Cracknell

8/10
"Sometimes nostalgia overpowers common sense."  eFilmCritic.com  Scott Weinberg

"You'll feel more like you were on a theme park ride than at a movie"  rec.arts.movies.reviews  Shane Burridge
