    [Highly rated reviewer]

    The Neverending Story' is a model for children's entertainment in the 1980's. The biggest moral to the story was that children should read more books. So often today, children's entertainment focuses on making a statement.

    'The Neverending Story' was wonderful, full of fantasy and imagination. The story of a little boy named Bastian who borrowed a magical book from a small, old book store and whose imagination in the story doesn't realize until the end that he's a part of the story and the human boy that Atreyu is looking for is him.

    There are no hard core issues to this story. No underlying reason for making the film beyond pure entertainment. During a time when a kid could be a kid and innocence was a virtue in film making. A movie that influenced kids that they could be whatever they dreamed.

    The cast couldn't of been better. Every actor and actress filled their role perfectly and beautifully and every voice for non-human actors was perfect. Beautifully done, 'The Neverending Story' is one of the best movies of all time.

  • Waste of time. Even if you love children's fantasy films.

    Well that's 2 hours of my life I'll never get back! And what a waste of money on the makers part! Instead of wasting money on stupid perverted luck dragons, how about commissioning a decent storyline?

    I love fantasy films and especially all the Disney classics, but this was just utter rubbish. Predictable, boring and poorly acted.
