There's no reason for me to go into the plot of this because you already know it.
If you are a Muppet's fan, you will probably get a kick of this movie. It's not a fantastic movie but it has most of the Muppet regulars and humour so it's great for fans.
However, this is not a kids movie. I honestly don't know what audience they were going for but there were many jokes I would consider adult jokes in this movie - well not adult necessarily but older kids jokes. Like mentions of Girls Gone Wild or nipple play. A child isn't going to get those things. I laughed though.
As a Muppet fan, I would recommend this, but as a Wizard of Oz fan I would not.
The reason is they took this charming innocent story about values like family and home and turned it into a selfish quest for fashion and stardom. And while those things might be the values of today, IMHO that ruined this movie.
So this is a no from me. |
