Part of Action Distraction
Celebrating its 40th anniversary, Steven Spielberg, Richard Donner and Chris Columbus’s 1985 collaboration is a beloved epic children’s adventure of subterranean caverns, sunken galleons, and a fortune in lost pirate treasure waiting to be found by a group of friends known as The Goonies. With brothers Mikey (Sean Astin) and Brand’s (Josh Brolin) house slated for demolition by greedy land developers, the boys decide their only hope lies in finding the long-lost treasure. They uncover a treasure map and with their friends descend to a subterranean sea cavern and an abandoned galleon in this fun-filled, fast-paced adventure. Also starring Corey Feldman, Martha Plympton and 2023 Oscar winner Ke Huy-Quan (EVERYTHING EVERYWHERE ALL AT ONCE).
“Doesn't even pretend to court the grown-up set…. There isn't a child in America who won't want to see THE GOONIES this summer.” —Janet Maslin, New York Times (Jun 7, 1985)
