Summary:
It's summer in the small seaside town of Astoria and The Goonies are restless. Big developers threaten to take over the town. Then Mikey finds an old pirate map and the kids take off to find the loot that can save their neighbourhood.
But they never counted on skeletons with swords, a booby-trapped underground passage and the murderous ex-con, all of whom want The Goonies' heads.
But they took a vow to stick together through thick and thin...and that's lucky for them, because the most incredible time of their lives is about to begin...
THE GOONIES ARE LOOKING FOR HIDDEN TREASURE. WHAT THEY FIND IS A HEAP OF TROUBLE!
