This was my favorite movie as a child. I must have watched it thousands of times. How could you not love an adventure mystery movie full of pirates and treasure and secret passageways - where the kids are the heroes.
A movie that you probably had to be a certain age when watching to truly connect to. I appreciated a lot of what this movie did, but watching it recently, it paled in comparison to both contemporary action/adventure movies, as well as ones from the same era. Put this next to Raiders of the Lost Ark, and no matter how much you squint, Raiders is just a better movie.
Okay, I'm the guy who usually completely loves 80s movies, but I honestly found this one pretty terrible. Probably should of watched it as a kid, then I would of absolutely loved it.
Fantastic movie for kids. but as I am not a kid, I do not much like the movie as a kid would like, but the movie is good, some parts of the kids are annoying, but in the end this is a good movie and a classic movie
3.5/5
I'd always avoided it for about 20 years or so as the trailer made me hate the children in it. Having now attempted to watch it. Hated the children and stopped.

As a child, I might have enjoyed it. Speaking as a grownup, it's cloying, patronizing, formulaic and tedious.Showing items 1 – 15 of 16
