Review - The Muppets


When Jim Henson brought the world The Muppet Show some 40 years ago, the world was a simpler place. It wasn’t as dark and cynical as it is now. There were no reality shows, no CSI, no MTV or E! The world has changed, some for the better and a lot for the worse. So in a world ruled by CGI, explosions and Jersey Shore, is there still a place for the goofiness and innocents of The Muppets?

Yes. Yes there is. You will smile. You will laugh. You may even cry. The Muppets are back and it’s all thanks to Disney, Nicholas Stoller and Jason Segel. This movie is pure Muppets bliss from beginning to end and it will take you back to a simpler place and time, even if you weren’t around when The Muppets were at their prominence. It just has that way about it.
