Title: 2 pounds of story in a 20-pound box, or a special-effects demo reel?
Product review: DO NOT expect the epic quests of "Dark Crystal" or "Labyrinth." If you weren't told that this came from the same people, you would never guess it.Visually stunning, 45 minutes after pressing Play I was still waiting for the story to start getting interesting. By an hour in, I had given up and was wondering who to give it to. Someone who will appreciate the incredible imagery but not notice the minor little detail that this movie is BOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRRRRING!!!!!There are some excellent sequences, but it seems that the film was done in the "Now What Oddball Idea Can We Put Here?" school of cinema. It is disjointed and maundering, and proof that it is possible for a film to be TOO much like real dreams.
