I'd say a lot about it, but I'm guessing that you probably already know about it. The plot is, basically, that the Muppets are trying to get everyone back together to save their old theater from a bad guy.
It has singing. It has dancing. It has a whole bunch of cameos. It's... well... it's a Muppet movie.
I had a good time. There are a lot of touches that hark back to the old TV show, and some touches that bridge the gaps. And the music was fun. Although there are also some kind of touching moments - which I really did not expect.
Was it a perfect movie? No. Christopher commented that he liked the beginning and the end, but the middle was a little slow.
Was it pretty much what we expected it would be? Yes.
And - as you'd expect - it reminds us that with some good moral support and someone to sing with, you'll be okay in life. And how can any movie with that at its center be bad?
Overall rating: B+. I had a really good time, I'm happy to see the Muppets back on the big screen, but the movie itself had some holes in it that they probably could have filled with a little more attention.
