Pros: Fun, entertaining family friendly adventure movie. Cons: A few sad and upsetting moments.
My love of movies started when I was a child even though I didn't get to see as many as I would have liked. I have fond memories of watching certain movies, some several times, as I was growing up. I recently watched The Neverending Story< b>< i> ...

Pros: ... decent characters, good acting by main cast, social commentary... Cons: ... tired story, useless villain, some awful effects by today's standards...
The Never-Ending Story is one of those films that I never quite got round to seeing in my youth (though I remember having the computer game for the old Speccy years ago!), and seeing it for the first time recently, really wish I’d had ...

Pros: Fanciful flight into an imaginary world. Will bring out the child in anyone Cons: Some scenes are heartpounding - not a con, just a FYI
Escape into the world of imaginary creatures, fantasy driven landscapes, and a loveable dragon who needs help saving Fantasia.
I originally saw this movie in the Theater (showing my age now!), and it stayed with me for years afterward. I...

Pros: Magical, Mystical, and full of Adventure! Cons: None
"The Neverending Story" was one of those movies that I saw when I was a child that I could not get out of my system. I watched it every chance I could get, and started to pray and hope that such a place like Fantasia did exsist. When my Mom would tell me...

Pros: Direction; cute. Cons: Falcor.
When I first watched The NeverEnding Story at the age of seven, I thought to myself, "Yes... it really is never-ending." How does a 97-minute long film with a thin plot and no sexual tension manage to feel so eternal? I don't know- it may have ...

Pros: Great script, fantastic score, very well directed, magical in every way Cons: It ended!
When I was a kid this movie dominated my childhood. From age 4-8 I watched it virtually every week without exception. It seemed to me to be the height of cinema. Then, when I started getting up there, I sadly shuffled it away along with most of the ...

Pros: Well-developed characters, involving storyline, great world, cool music Cons: Sometimes terrible acting from Bastian and Atreyu
I grew up on this movie. I mean, not literally, because that would take some balance, but I must have watched it hundreds of times between first and sixth grades. This is the movie that started what has been, for me, a lifelong love affair with my...

Pros: Pure magic. Cons: Adults, unlike kids, will notice its flaws.
This movie has done so much to shape my life that I almost hate to give it a mere four stars. However, I must not let my personal bias interfere with my objective assessment of the film's quality.
I loved this film so much as a child, I was...

by ByronSummers , May 23 '00
Pros: Excellent special effects and creatures, great premise and theme, an '80s gem Cons: Too short (only about an hour and a half)
"The Neverending Story" is a fascinating fantasy film with a firm hold in popular culture. Released in 1984, this movie continues to enchant new generations of children while those who grew up with it still hold it dear to their...

Pros: I've never forgotten it. Cons: none
I'll watch it again and again... and I'm now 23!
I first saw The Neverending Story in the cinema. I lived in Singapore when it first came out - sometime between the ages 4-7. After that, we got the sound track and the novel.

by ravenmidnight , Jun 20 '00
Pros: Great movie with a very tru statement on imagination and dreams Cons: none
I was four when this movie came out and even then I understood this phrase. Even at that age I knew the power of dreams and imagination, found them, in fact, a vital tool for survival. I was never exactly the sort of kid that was accepted and therefore...

Pros: Falkor Cons: they might want to touch up the special effects
Ohh my god where do I start. This is like a classic I put up there with the greats like the Wizard of Oz, Willow, The Last Unicorn, and Legends. If any movie should be retouched and brought back out on to the big screen it should be this one. It's...

Pros: Highly imaginative, innovative, positive. Cons: I remember it as a scary movie when I was a kid.
An adventure classic for all ages, The Neverending Story involves hope, love, terror, despair, frustration, and courage, and comes out with a triumphant success over the powers of darkness. The viewer will find themselves cheering along with Bastein, the...

Pros: beautiful imagery, wonderful story of love, passion, terror, and courage Cons: none
I saw many movies when I was younger, but few stick out as clearly in my mand more than The Neverending Story. The story seemed so wonderful on so many different levels. I must have seen it at least 40 times during my childhood years alone. The movie...
