The 9 Kids' Movies Adults Love

The Goonies

Some kids' movies stand the test of time,and others feel completely dated. The Goonies is a perfect blend of both—sweatbands and poorly executed CGI are classically '80s, while the treasure hunt plot is as old as stories themselves. There's just something lovable about Chunk, Data and the gang—perhaps because the film was written by überdirectors Steven Spielberg and Chris Columbus. Watch it in today's economy, and the "save the homes from foreclosure!" storyline takes on new relevance.
