as a kid loved it , as an adult hate it


I watched this long before Star Wars as a 6 year old kid. In fact I would not even hear anything about star wars until years later when I was beyond shocked to see the Ewoks in Return of the Jedi. That said I recently re-watched this and I now think this is right up there with Mac and Me with shows that seemed great but suck once yo mature a bit

Well to be fair here it was intended for kids age 4-10

Come back in 20 years, and once you're a parent you might have a different opinion.

As a 28-year-old male, I still enjoy this movie and its sequel. I'm sure nostalgia play a large factor in that, but these movies are simply goofy and light-hearted fun. I found the 80's to contain plenty of charming little fantasy films.

I like it just the same today as I did then, the movie hasn't changed since it's immortalized forever on film. People change, not books or movies.

Agree.

I'm 30 and still like it and its sequel.

They were my introduction to Star Wars in the late '80s/early '90s.

If I'd seen it when I was five or six I would have loved it.

At around 11 I was already critical enough to know this was not so great.

I hated it as a kid and never would watch it as an adult. I guess I'm superior to you in smartliness, loser.
