Jeez, The Goonies is quite possibly one of the WORST movies ever. I can almost guarantee that anyone who claims to like it hasn't seen it in 10-15 years, and if you did watch it now you'd be disgusted with yourself. I hated it when it first came out, and I hate it even more now.
It's just "trendy" to claim to looooooooove the movie for the sake of reminiscing.
Lame.
Goonies isn't Oscar worthy. If you go in expecting something amazingly well put together it's not the movie for you. To me it's just a straight fun movie. I loved it as a kid and yes I've seen it recently and still love it (one of the many 80's movies I can watch over and over and over). It brings back memories of my childhood and puts a smile to my face.
Everybody has things from their childhood that they love even if it's not necessarily artistically the greatest thing in the world or is frankly cheesy (whether it be a movie, book, toy, etc). If you don't, I just feel bad for you.
