Yesterday as I was babysitting my nieces (8-years-old and 6-years-old), I told them all about David Bowie and his role in Labyrinth and how much I loved this movie when I was their age, I then showed them videos on YouTube of all the songs. After explaining the plot of the movie, the girls decided it was a must-watch.

This morning I woke up to the sound of my youngest niece screaming at the top of her lungs - "THE GOBLINS TOOK THE BABY! THE GOBLINS TOOK THE BABY!" and I realized they had started it without me!! While I was a bit disappointed that they didn't wait for me, I was delighted that they remembered that I told them…

Tonight, we lost a star to the stars above.

David Bowie died and it hit me harder than I expected. When I first read the news at around 2am a few hours ago, I sat shellshocked; letting the words "David Bowie dies at 69 after 18 month battle with Cancer" marinate in my mind. I was lost for words. I didn't expect Bowie's passing to get to me as much as it did. And yet I was heartbroken at the thought of the world without David Bowie; a stranger whom I never met.

Like many of us, I was just a fan, especially when I was in middle school. That was a period in my life where I discovered a…

Labyrinth handlar om den angsty tonåringen Sarah som får i uppdrag att vara barnvakt åt sin nyfödda lillebror. Lillebrorsan är högljudd och har stulit Sarahs favoritgosedjur, den lilla skithögen, så nu måste hon hämnas. Hon läser en bok, Labyrinth, som handlar om The Goblin King som för bort små barn och detta ger Sarah en idé. Hon säger en trollformel från boken som skulle låta the Goblin King att kidnappa spädbarnet. Hon märker dock till sin förfäran att trollformeln faktiskt fungerade och ångrar sig direkt. Hon transporteras till ett magiskt land och måste navigera en farlig labyrint för att ta sig till the Goblin Kings slott för att befria sin lillebror. Hon träffar nya vänner på vägen och måste ta…

Current me had some fun with "Labyrinth", but I feel like childhood me would have loved this. The first half of the movie is genuinely very good, with several interesting puzzles and characters that instantly drew me in, but the second half, especially the third act, does get kind of boring, which is a shame.

The design of the labyrinth and the sets themselves is really cool, but I wish we got more of the puzzles and quirks later on in the movie, because a proper exploration of the labyrinth would have been amazing. Also, a coherent story wouldn't hurt.

Jennifer Connelly and David Bowie are solid in their respective roles, but it's not like they bring anything extraordinarily special…

This was one of the weirdest fuckin movies ever. I feel like it works a lot more if it was a part of your childhood but i do feel like im in on a joke now. It's definitely not like my least favorite thing, but it was definitely strange. I appreciate all the work that must have gone into it with all the monster guys. As a gen z millennial rat i think it could be easy to overlook something like that and just see a weird movie with shitty monsters, but it must have really taken a lot. David bowie really never disappoints. He's incredible the makeup the tights everything so good. Jennifer conley’s character was big fuckin dumb…
