" Notes: Eventually, I really did like this movie a lot but, somehow, it didn’t really blew me away though. First of all, on a technical level, it was indeed a really impressive feature. Indeed, those puppets and the sets just looked great and I really enjoyed the creatures, the characters and, basically, the whole fantasy world they managed to create which was just fascinating.

"As with The NeverEnding Story, I had a love hate relationship, with this movie. For many, many, mean, reasons. First, there is the Skeksis, then there are scenes were the Podlings, get tortured, then there is a dinning room scene, and the Garthim. To, me back then, the movie was like one big, Muppet filled snuff film. Oh, they definitely got the dark part, of the title right. "

"3.2. Hensonin ja kumppaneiden erikoistehoste- ja nukkeosaaminen on edelleen huikeaa jälkeä, mutta kliseinen tarina uppoaa kyllä täysin itseensä."

" It breaks my heart to say that I was not a fan of this film. I was expecting to adore it. It just so damned wonderful and in so many ways - it was. I love the craftsmanship behind it. The creature designs and world building is beautifully quirky, imaginative and sweetly innocent. Yet the story and characters that are presented fell completely flat for me. I did not get emotionally invested and I found eventually found the film to be more of a chore than something enjoyable."

" I wish I had seen this when I was younger. It's in the same vein as "Labyrinth" and "Legend." I grew up on those and I just wish I had experienced this one then."
