Your children need a wise adult to help with some frightening, sad, and disturbing dialogue that even many adults could be scared and disturbed. Too bad the ending was not a fantasy, but back to city reality. This film encourages student truancy as Bastion never went back to his school classes in the film. Otherwise it is entertaining, even with all its characters' flaws and confused ideologies.

Turned my son on to this movie. Loved it as a child, and as an adult I see all the great lessons and consequences presented and how to best handle the results. Last saw this movie on VHS -- it's almost like watching a whole new movie when viewing in UHD (Blu-Ray on 4K TV) - amazing!!

This is a cool storybook movie. Filled with adventures, gallant and valiant heroes, and princesses. Suffice to say the movie doesn't live up to it's titular prospect -- but it's legacy certainly does. Also shout out to Wolfgang Petersen, who did the best 1990's Clint Eastwood movie that Clint didn't direct -- IN THE LINE OF FIRE. BOOM.

FInally, the movie is on Blu-ray, but the transfer isn't as great, although, it's not bad either. It's a lot better than what you'll see on TV or DVD. The audio is nice, the picture quality could be better, but, I enjoyed it after not having seen it since I was 8 years old in the 1980s. Last time I saw it, it was on regular prime time TV.

The NeverEnding Story is a great movie to watch with the family. This movie was shot an a 2.35:1 aspect ratio, so expect black bars on the top and bottom. The picture quality is average, with a few issues such as being too bright or too dark. The audio track is decent, with an unfortunate artificial feel with the mixing.
