The Dark Crystal — A classic if old fantasy story full of details — 7*/10

  • Scenario: A great adventure story to save a mystical world from its evil masters. Lots of fantastic creatures, small and big, good and bad. Incredible level of details. Simple story, but entertaining and engrossing. A very high point for Jim Henson and Frank Oz's cinematic carriers as directors.
  • Visual & sound: Beautiful handcrafted decors and puppets. So, most of the special effects still look good today, to a few exceptions including the whole cataclysmique ending which was obviously beyond 1982 capabilities.
  • Synopsis & informationhttp://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083791/
  • Who is it for? For fantasy lovers who don't mind a bit of old fashion special effects.
