Review of Legend (1985) by Asif K — 09 Oct 2011
This film is really beautiful, a truely dark fairytale. Tim Curry is awesome as Darkness and the Tangerine Dream score is great, much better than the directors cut musical score if you ask me. I Saw this when I was very young and liked it then, the cross with twisted Muppets, dark sword and sorcery and gothic romance is really spellbinding and visualised so well despite using 100% sets and no computer tomfoolery.
Ridley Scott at his best before he started making more serious affairs but clearly shows that he is the master for visual fair and knows exactly how to make things look right and real and that's what is so amazing with 'Legend', it does look completely real, a stunning dream and work of art from start to finish.
Cruise is abit wet though haha.
