Story Synopsis:
Jim Henson’s Labyrinth is a remarkable fantasy adventure that successfully combines real people with Muppet-like creatures, goblins and gnomes. Despite the intriguing locations within the Labyrinth, you will never forget the unique cast of characters long after the film is over.
DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced DVD viewed in component video will surely please in all aspects of image quality. Images are sharp and finely detailed into backgrounds, with excellent clarity and definition throughout the color balance. Shadow delineation exhibits good visual information in the darkest scenes. The picture will surely delight fans of Jim Henson's creatures as well as a new generation of young viewers. The anamorphic and letterbox DVD measures 2.35:1.
Soundtrack:
The Dolby® Digital 2.0 matrix encoded Dolby Surround soundtrack is basically a conventional 4-channel sound mix. This is a soundtrack that delivers fine fidelity and dialogue, but more effective utilization of the surround channel is desired.
