Since don't feel like restating what I already wrote, I'll just copy and paste, since these statements still accurately reflect my sentiments on the matter:

An adolescent Jennifer Connelly stars as the big sister. In a fit of annoyance, she wishes her baby brother be captured and taken away by the goblin king, played by a diabolical David Bowie. Her wish is miraculously granted.

In order get her brother back, she must find her way through the labyrinth's maze of puzzles and tricks, and into the goblin king's castle to rescue the baby.

Maybe the concept sounds corny and "little kids stuff". Perhaps it is, but they did an awesome job. Truly some of the most imaginitive stuff around, with a great cast of wacky characters, and the music of David Bowie. Loved the live action Escher reference too.
