I must admit, I'm a bit biased. I'm a huge fan of the Muppets and Jim Henson in general. My rating reflects that. But, I loved the memories that this film brought back. And I loved the general feeling of nostalgia. Jason Segal, who helped write the film, brought an Aptowian presence to the film. I thought the inside jokes and what some might call, cheesy, humor added to the film. I also loved the little gags, like major plot points just being told to us. And, then, another character tells us that someone just told us a major plot point. Brilliant! But, most of all, it was fun. And isn't that what a good movie should be. I mean, who wants to sit through 100 hours of Ben-Hur (I happen to like Ben-Hur) when they can watch The Muppets?
