The Muppets


Today I have been to see The Muppets.

"It's time to play the music" as the Muppets return with a hilarious adventure to delight fans old and new!

Twelve years after their last big-screen adventure, the Muppets have gone their separate ways. Kermit lives in a mansion with his '80s robot. Fozzie ekes out a living as leader of feeble counterfeit troupe The Moopets. And Miss Piggy is Plus-Size Editor for Vogue in Paris. But not everybody has forgotten The Muppets. Super-fan Walter is overjoyed to visit the Muppet theatre in LA with his brother Gary (Jason Segel) and Gary's girlfriend Mary (Amy Adams). But when they find that evil oil tycoon Tex Richman (Chris Cooper) is planning to demolish the run-down old place, the race is on to save it by re-uniting the gang for a telethon. British director James Bobin, of 'Flight of the Conchords' fame, breathes new life into Jim Henson's creation with this hugely enjoyable and playful romp.
