The NeverEnding Story Ratings & Reviews
- adecaria2d agoA brooding bookworm ditches school to hide in an attic and read himself into a magical depression spiral, while no responsible adult in his life bothers to notice he’s been missing all day. The acting treats everyone like they’re 7, but the story suddenly asks big questions about whether the kid is part of the story he’s reading — and then has him name the princess after his dead mom. A strange mix of kiddie fluff and heavy feelings sinks this movie into the muck like a horse in the Swamp of Sadness. But that title track? And riding Falcor at the end? "YEAH!!!!"
- Jeremiah HalldinNovember 9, 2024Great classic.

- Wil RoeseJune 9, 2025"People with no hopes are easy to control."
- Nate PatrickJune 20, 2025A classic movie, even with the dated special effects, it's an endearing story that is always enjoyable to watch.
- tomcatt360June 28, 2025Nostalgic movie with effects that hold up and music that is beautiful and iconic. Above all, the message of the movie is needed now more than ever!
