In todays world of modern CGI effects, 
and high budget computer animated cartoons, seeing this movie is really refreshing. Using puppets and good story this movie managed to be interesting after all this time. Brian Froud, an exceptional artist with an unlimited imagination, really brought to life this story.
It is set in a past and on a distant planet, two races, one good and one evil are on brink of extinction. The true power of the dark crystal must be restored, and a Gelfling Jen is chosen to do so. He will embark on a long journey to achieve this goal. With a screenplay that has many levels this very cute and relaxing movie with a soul, unlike today`s synthetic and generic movies this genre, enjoy.
