MOVIE REVIEW: Labyrinth


 

THE CAST

David Bowie as The Goblin King (Jareth).

Jennifer Connelly as Sarah Williams.

Brian Henson as Hoggle.

David Barclay as Sir Didymus.

Rob Mills as Ludo.

PLOT SYNOPSIS : The main character is a girl called Sarah Williams and she is practicing for a school play by saying her lines, but it starts raining and she has to go home.
Then, her Mum and Dad say that they are going away for the night and take good care of the baby called Toby. So she goes to sleep, but she noticed one of her teddy bears was missing and when she went into Toby's room she found: 1.Toby was crying 2. Her missing teddy bear, Lancelot, was in the room. She then muttered the magic words, "I wish the Goblins would take you away," and turned off the light, but then she couldn't hear Toby so she went back and saw that Toby was not in his bed.
Then as owl burst open a window and she saw the owl turn into a human. The human was actually the goblin king that she had heard of in her lines for the play and the goblin king said, "You will have to solve my Labyrinth to get your baby brother back". She gets through the maze and she gets some new friends and on the way she also conquered: the Stone Corridor, the Stone Maze, the Oubliette, the Underground Passages, the Hedge Maze, the Fiery Forest, the Bog Of Eternal Stench, and The Enchanted Forest.
On the last encounter she mutters the magic words that banish the king, "Give me the child. Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered, I have fought my way to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child that you have stolen. For my will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom as great. You have no power over me."
Then, everything was normal again and her friends that she met in the Labyrinth including Hoggle, Ludo, and Sir Didymus were gone, but when she looked in the mirror she saw them and they all had a party in her real house.

WHAT I LIKED: I liked that it is goofy and that Sarah never gave up. Also they had good puppets and all the characters are puppets except for the five people in it.

WHAT I DISLIKED: I disliked the Goblin King because he was throwing the baby around and he's creepy.

STARS OUT OF TEN: I give 8.5/10 stars

    I love this movie son, even though I agree David Bowie is a bit creepy. Jennifer Connelly is/was my favorite actress when I saw this movie - and is the same age as me - so it gets/got the high five from me.

  The house is finished! This is me and Auntie Egghead in the new house. The first event that happened was that we arrived at Hoi An. On the first day we really just settled in and slept. On the 2nd day Auntie Egghead arrived. Although we had to drive Uncle John ( The 2nd John. Daddy's the first John) to the hospital because he went to Phu Quoc ( an island owned by Vietnam) and ripped open his elbow on a rock. On the 3rd day we just mooched around and bought some food for him in the hospital. On the 4th day we took Auntie Egghead and Uncle John to see the Shadysides. This picture was taken in Shadyside 3: Lost House by Auntie Egghead We then went to the beach, had a drink and played pool. We also saw a cute dog who we named Hairy Mclairy. Here's a picture of her: That night we sat on the roof and we saw, John Cubed! English John, American John, and Daddy John in one picture!🙀 Me and Danny played Jenga and Roblox while the parents talked. Finally, on the 5th day, in the morning

  SHADYSIDE 5 : NAVY HOUSE Introduction This is me as I write this blog.       ↙ Shadyside 5 : Navy house is our new house in An my, which is in the rice fields of Hoi An, in Quang Nam province, in central VN.                  This a map of VN with Hoi An pinned.   The outside This is Shadyside 5 :  The Navy House. To be exact this is the outside of the new house, but the house is not finished yet as you will see in a moment in the next picture / paragraph. As you can see the house is split into three parts, not one, not two, three parts! The first one is the garage behind the big blue door on the left. That is where you park the motorbikes because you don't want them in the rain outside wet and sad. However, we haven't put the roof on yet so as you can see the house is not quite finished yet. Secondly, we have the 1st floor and finally, the 2nd floor. The house is not very convenient though because it is in an area with little shops or restaurants. The Garage This is the garag

My new dog - Donny!

My new dog Donny!⮟ On Thursday, July, 13, 2023. I got a new dog! It is a Toy Poodle and he is only two months old. His name is Donny and he was very clever and cute the first time I saw him IRL ( I n R eal L ife). Here is a picture of him: He's cute isn't he? I made a choice that he is the dog that I am going to pick. I named him Donny because the Doncaster Rovers ( The team that is from Doncaster where my Dad was born) mascot is a dog too and he is called Donny too.  Here is me and Donny (the real dog) together: I am writing this blog on the second full day I have had him and he is sleeping now. This dog is so funny, he rolls over, so that means, Tickle Time! Anyway I love this dog. He is very calm unlike my other dog that I used to have called Daveo who has ADHD, so he cannot stay still, but this dog is the absolute opposite. We have already almost trained him already to pee and poop in the toilet. That is why I love this dog Donny already. It has been so much fun with him
