 Star Wars meets Muppets July 12, 2010

I had mixed feelings about The Dark Crystal. The puppet animation holds up surprisingly well even in the age of digital animation. Some of the scenes are beautiful, such as the heroes rowing on the lake with papyrus. The movements are generally smooth and not jerky. It shows Jim Henson's genius with puppets. My problem with the movie is with the human side - the script and voice acting. Sometimes, it seems the scriptwriters got lazy and just copied scenes from Star Wars, including characters suspiciously similar to the Ewoks and Yoda. Some of the voices also seem a bit weak and lighty for their characters. Finally, the movie seems to want to be an epic, and has the makings of it, but is just too short at 1.5 hours to really be of epic proportions. I'd recommend The Dark Crystalfor kids who like fantasy/epics like Star Wars, but I don't know if it will appeal much beyond that audience.

There is no benefit to buying these three movies packaged together. Buy them separately and save $$$.

Unless I'm crazy (distinct possibility) this costs more than buying all three blu-rays separately. So unless clicking your mouse about 6 times isnt worth about $25 to you, this is a poor purchase.
 Jim Henson's Film review July 19, 2009

I thoroughly enjoyed his movies growing up and wanted to see them again. They are still as good as I remembered. The Mirror mask was a new one to me but the others I had seen before.
