If you are an adult watching it for the first time, then sure it might not hold up.

I think any kid watching it today would still like it. It is a great adventure story, but I love those type of movies.

I still love In Search of the Castaways and Island at the Top of the World.

And yes, I think it holds up. Watched it a few months back and still thought it was a good kids adventure.

Still want to know who got all the gold. Someone had to go chase down Willie's ship.

Yeah...don't try to watch that one as an adult. Just enjoy the memory of it and leave it there.

I actually still like The Neverending Story, but mainly for nostalgia purposes. However, I think Goonies is still just a good movie (as opposed to liking it only because of nostalgia).

ETA: Also, TNE is a huge fantasy movie, so I look at it slightly differently from an adventure movie like Goonies (even though they are both movies I loved from my childhood).
