I recently re-watched “The Goonies” after so many years and I was delighted how wonderfully chaotic it all was. The action and chatter is nearly unceasing but somehow each character’s narrative voice is heard and kids at that time certainly were able to associate with one or another of the cast. The motive and drive of the movie is worn on its sleeve but that makes it no less endearing and, again, every character is given their due.
