Henson's vision and the wonderful bag of puppetry tricks he turns to are enough to make "Labyrinth" a winner.

Plays like The Wizard of Oz or Alice in Wonderland crossed with a middling episode of "The Muppet Show" guest-starring David Bowie … suffers from a distinct lack of charm.

An innovative mix of sophisticated puppetry and special effects, Labyrinth has all the components of classic myth.

Unfortunately, this contemporary (at least, for the era) fairy tale, directed and co-written by Muppets creator Jim Henson, never sets a timely tone beyond the 1980s. It remains disappointingly tethered to yesteryear.

The chaotic narrative proceeds in fits and starts, and the sights and sounds are often dated, but somehow the film's wit and wonder linger in the mind.

A real masterpiece of puppetry and special effects, an absolutely gorgeous children's fantasy movie.
