Leave your thoughts about The NeverEnding Story.
| Video-Reviewmaster.comSteve CrumMagical storytelling targeted at children still fascinates. |
| Needcoffee.comWidgett WallsThe 'NeverEnding' part of the title is certainly accurate. |
| Boston GlobeMichael BlowenThe idea of the story within a story is one of the nice touches in The NeverEnding Story. Another one is the idea of a child's faith being able to change the course of fate. Maybe not since the kids in the audience were asked to save Tinker Bell in Peter Pan has the outcome of a story been left so clearly up to a child's willingness to believe. |
| Cinema AutopsyThomas CaldwellThe NeverEnding Story remains a testament to the power of imagination and the type of inventive cinema that was possible in a pre-digital era. |
| People MagazineRalph NovakIt pokes along at times and lapses occasionally into dark moments of preachy philosophy, but this is still a charming, amusing and harmless film for kids. |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.Carries with it a healthy amount of menace, and intensity, but it's also a remarkable adventure. |
| Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittFantasies as hearty and original as this are rare at the movies. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesRoger EbertThe world of this movie looks like a very particular place, and the art direction involved a lot of imagination. |
| Groucho ReviewsPeter CanaveseIt's very hard not to give in to The Neverending Story's heart-in-the-right-place charms amidst an increasingly anti-literate society. [Blu-ray] |
| The Globe and Mail (Toronto)Rick GroenThis was sweet and charming at the time but now it just lacks either the comedy or sophistication of kids' fantasy film that we've all become accustomed to. |
