It is a classic of the genre that will adapt with time and space

I've loved this movie since I was a teenager. The characters are engaging and believable. Still crushing on the girl Gelfling.

Timeless Classic Masterpiece!

A staggering amount of effort and imagination must have gone into the writing and making of this film. The sets are very elaborate, the characters are intriguing and engaging, and the numerous creatures and monsters are the icing on the cake. A classic fantasy/sci-fi movie that's worth watching over and over again....the Muppets on steroids!Read full review...

Jim Henson’s alternate adventure

I watched this movie years ago & hope to show it to the next generation of my family. The story is an adventure, and a coming of age story for youngsters.

Excellent!

I’ve always loved this movie. My best friend and I in jr high would skip class and watch this on VHS in the back of the school library. I’m so glad to own my own copy!! Xo

A great movie in history of special effects.

A movie from my childhood, The Dark Crystal is a fable/fairy tale like story that uses the state-of-the-art special effects of it's time in the early 80's. Designed around famed fantasy artist Brian Froud's designs, Jim Henson builds costumes, puppetry, and imaginative environments to support the story of good vs. evil. Even though the movie is older, it is historically relevant in terms of special effects production, and it's underlying story is compelling as it's an adventure line. There may be plenty of 3D and computer generated graphics in the movies these days, but, back then, you had to support "Suspension of Disbelief" with intricately detailed costumes and puppets along with a large crew of manipulators versed in dance, choreography, theater, and technical problem solving, when making a fantasy/science fiction movie. Consider the Yoda of Star Wars past, a puppet; and Yoda of the Clone Wars today, now computer generated. Both have different looks and feels. The Dark Crystal is a great movie.Read full review...

Great Movie!

I saw this movie when it first came out and have enjoyed watching it again. Such a special movie that Jim Henson produced. I purchased it so I would be ready for the Netflix series of the The Dark Crystal, The Age of Resistance. Can't wait!Read full review...
