Jim Henson, který se proslavil jako tvůrce postaviček Muppets, tentokrát nechává v podivuhodném animovaném filmu ožít příběh plný fantazie a poezie
- This one’s not just a film, it’s a rite of passage. The Dark Crystal was Jim Henson and Frank Oz at their most daring, crafting a world without a single human actor, where puppets carried the weight of myth, emotion and eerie beauty. If you saw it in the cinema, you remember the awe. On TV, it felt like a secret broadcast from another realm. And owning it on DVD? That was a commitment to wonder. Set on the alien world of Thra, the story follows Jen, a Gelfling tasked with restoring a broken crystal before the sinister Skeksis plunge everything into darkness. The visuals are pure handcrafted magic—Brian Froud’s designs, the Creature Shop’s puppetry and Trevor Jones’s sweeping score all combine into something timeless. It’s dark, yes, but never cruel. It’s fantasy with teeth, but also heart. Watching it now, it still holds up. The artistry, the ambition, the atmosphere, it’s all still there. And knowing it inspired Age of Resistance decades later only deepens its legacy. They don’t make them like this anymore and maybe they never did.
- The Dark Crystal is a rare kind of fantasy film: one that feels like you’ve stepped into a completely self-contained myth, not just a movie. Its original story and meticulously built world of Gelflings, Skeksis, and Mystics are extraordinary, rich with lore that absolutely deserved a sequel—even if that continuation took many years to arrive. The puppetry work of Jim Henson and Frank Oz broke new ground, creating expressive, tactile characters without a single human face on screen. Their craftsmanship set a standard for practical creature effects that has essentially never been repeated at this scale. Every frame feels hand-crafted, from the eerie landscapes to the smallest background critter. While the pacing and tone may feel unusual compared to today’s fast-cut fantasy, that deliberate rhythm gives the film a dreamlike, storybook quality. The Dark Crystal remains a bold, singular achievement in worldbuilding and cinematic artistry that still inspires awe.
- This movie is one of the best movies I've ever watched, it is beloved by youtubers actors and singers, this is one of the best puppet movie ever, I do not contain much spoilers, but it is a medieval. And they are puppets. The best puppet character is all of them, they are fantastic. Hope this review gave you hope in 2 watching this by Dana Ali
