Review title: A really great visual treat
Product review: 'The Dark Crystal' is an exceptional movie because it is the pure product of Jim Henson's massive imagination and outstanding talents. The incredible puppeteering and its seamless combination with costumed actors makes a movie that stands alone as a true original that has yet to be recreated, and may never be.The story isn't bad. The plot is predictable and the music is no different from any other movie that aspires to be the epic story of prophecy fulfilled. But you can't tear your eyes from the film because of its beautiful, richly-detailed world. Jim Henson and his team made thousands of puppets and props for the movie. They were succesful in creating a perfectly-delivered, believable fantasy world with distinguished characters you could care about set in intriguing, original environments.All-in-all, the DVD is well worth buying. But stay away from the nasty VHS. This movie demands letterbox.-- JJT
