The Goonies

Adapted by Chris Columbus from a story by Steven Spielberg, the film follows a group of misfit kids (including such second-generation Hollywoodites as Josh Brolin and Sean Astin) as they search for buried treasure in a subterranean cavern. THE GOONIES has a rich and indomitable air of all-American 80s innocence, Spielbergian sentiment and energetic fun-house tricks.
