  • Editorial Review:
    Journey into the fantastical world of LABYRINTH, starring David Bowie and a cast of incredible creatures created by Jim Henson and produced by the Master of Myth, George Lucas! Frustrated with babysitting on yet another weekend night, Sarah, a teenager with an active imagination, summons the Goblins from her favorite book,"LABYRINTH," to take her baby stepbrother away. When little Toby actually disappears, Sarah must follow him into the world of the fairy tale to rescue him from the wicked Goblin King (Bowie)! Guarding his castle is The Labyrinth itself, a twisted maze of deception, populatedwith outrageous characters and unknown dangers. To get through it in time to save Toby, Sarah will have to outwit the King by befriending the very Goblins who protect him, in hopes that their loyaltyisn't just another illusion in a place where nothing is as it seems!

    Description of Labyrinth:
    Sarah (a teenage Jennifer Connelly) rehearses the role of a fairy-tale queen, performing for her stuffed animals. She is about to discover that the time has come to leave her childhood behind. In real life she has to baby-sit her brother and contend with parents who don't understand her at all. Her petulance leads her to call the goblins to take the baby away, but when they actually do, she realizes her responsibility to rescue him. Sarah negotiates the Labyrinth to reach the City of the Goblins and the castle of their king. The king is the only other human in the film and is played by a glam-rocking David Bowie, who performs five of his songs. The rest of the cast are puppets, a wonderful array of Jim Henson's imaginative masterpieces. Henson gives credit to children's author and illustrator Maurice Sendak, and the creatures in the movie will remind Sendak fans of his drawings. The castle of the king is a living M.C. Escher set that adults will enjoy. The film combines the highest standards of art, costume, and set decoration. Like executive producer George Lucas's other fantasies, Labyrinth mixes adventure with lessons about growing up. --Lloyd Chesley

    Labyrinth Reviews:
    great on blu-ray 5 Star Review
    2009-11-05 - Great picture and sound. What else to say. A Must buy on blu-ray.

    Great buy! 5 Star Review
    2009-11-04 - I have loved this movie since I was a child and was thrilled to see it on Blu-Ray. It looks as good as one could expect considering it's age. It also has some wonderful extra features. It has the behind-the-scenes featurette that was on the DVD; but it also has an additional 'making of' documentary, a picture-in-picture track featuring interviews with puppeteers and puppet makers, and a commentary by Brian Froud. A great addition to any Blu-Ray collection!

    They don't make them like this anymore 5 Star Review
    2009-10-30 - This is one of my favorite movies of all time. Jim Henson's muppetry really puts most modern CGI to shame. This is a timeless classic that should be a wakeup call to all of the garbage that is coming out of holywood these days.

    More than meets the eye 5 Star Review
    2009-10-30 - This movie, like the labyrinth itself, is not always what it seems. It has layers, and depending on where you are in your life, it can mean something different to you. It waits for you to catch up to it. On the surface level, Labyrinth is a fun fantasy movie for kids, and in this capacity, it delivers wholeheartedly. It follows a tried-but-true storyline--a girl finds herself in a fantasy world with a quest to accomplish, sidekicks who help her on the way, and a villain that both terrifies and entrances (and sings!). With fun songs, neat Muppet creatures, and plenty of humor, Labyrinth is an imaginative, yet classic, fantasy story that is always entertaining.

    And then you grow up a little, and you realize that Labyrinth is also a coming-of-age story about a girl who's trying to grow up but doesn't know how to let go of her childhood fantasies. And that's what I love so much about this movie--it grows up with you. This is a movie about becoming lost in fantasy, about the dangers of growing up too soon or too late. The labyrinth is Sarah's fantasy, and solving it becomes more than just a matter of saving her brother--she also has to navigate her way to adulthood and responsibility. This may be obvious to an older viewer, but the experience of realizing it for yourself and relating to it as you grow up makes the movie something unexpectedly personal and powerful. It never stops being a fun fantasy movie with goblins, but there are bonus layers--what's real and what isn't? How much does Sarah control her fantasy world, and how much does it control her? What exactly does she have to give up? Labyrinth was one of my favorite movies as a child, and it's still one of my favorites, because I never stop relating to it.

    Also, David Bowie is awesome.

    2009-10-28 - Labyrinth is a wonderful creation of pure imagination. It's unlike any other movie I've ever seen. It's too bad Jim Henson didn't live longer to make more films. But thankfully he made this one. So light a joint, take a hit, and journey through the Labyrinth.
