9/10
Pure Fantasy Epic
1 September 2019
I'm a fan of the original Dark Crystal, but it has plenty of flaws. Netflix has taken that crazy, 80s, puppet movie and updated it, polished it, and given it a heck of a lot more depth. This series has dialed up the story and the lore to 11. The music is powerful, there is emotional story telling, and wonderful lessons if you're looking. This is a fantasy epic in the same vein as Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones, but it is so different from both of them, and not in a bad way. If you enjoy fantasy, if you enjoyed the old Dark Crystal movies, if you enjoy set design and special effects, if you enjoy epics that are larger than life-you will enjoy this movie. I'm just a random guy on the Internet, but I strongly recommend it.
