Pretty not bad.

Halloween town converts to Christianity and tries to take over the world.
A simple, short, bubblegum movie. It’s quaint and adorable.

A girl is cursed to re-live Christmas until she learns her lesson.
It’s nice enough, but it’s derivative. This would be fine for someone young.

I don’t even know how to describe this movie.
It’s only okay. It’s notable because it’s somehow rated PG but is so utterly completely unsuitable to that rating; legendary.

A boy skips school, is assaulted by bullies then hides from them in a bookstore which he robs, then hides out in his school’s attic to read.
An extraordinarily powerful movie.
There’s a certain feeling with movies in the 1980’s which were positioned for children but had unashamedly-adult themes running through them. The Neverending Story has, at its core, themes of literacy, imagination, will, loss, hope and determination.

Soon to enter into a loveless marriage with the king, a common woman’s only hope lies in a daring rescue attempt.
A classic movie of fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, true love and miracles. This is a kid-friendly movie in the sense that the 80s didn’t have kids who were complete pussies. There is hatred, danger, death and blood, and yes proper torture, and this is a fine family-friendly film.
The only flaw in this movie is the grandfather-narrator, who is terribly overdone to the point of distraction.
