The Muppet Movie
Celebrating 50 Years of Bein' Green
They're irreverent, irrepressible, and downright irresistible. They're the Muppets! - starring in their first full-length movie. See how their meteoric rise to fame and fortune began: with a rainbow, a song...and a Frog.
After a fateful meeting with a big-time talent agent, Kermit the Frog heads for Hollywood dreaming of showbiz. Along the way, Fozzie Bear, the Great Gonzo, and the dazzling Miss Piggy join him in hopes of becoming film stars too. But all bets are off when Kermit falls into the clutches of Doc Hopper (Charles Durning), a fast-food mogul seeking to promote his French-fried frog-leg franchise!
Featuring Oscar®-nominated music and side-splitting appearances by some of the biggest names on the silver screen - including Steve Martin, Mel Brooks, Orson Welles, and more - this fully restored and re-mastered 50th Anniversary Edition of The Muppet Movie is a critically acclaimed comedy classic your family will treasure for all time.

This classic film doesn't get old and the terrific gags and music are unfortunately marred by a rather terrible conversion to DVD that has the video and audio quality of VHS tape. For me, this reduced a movie that would clearly merit five stars down to four stars; solidly enjoyable in spite of the quality problems.
Even though it's ostensibly a kids movie I think the adults enjoy it as much or more; in fact I would say that its humour might be lost on younger kids. I think kids between 10 and 105 years of age would probably enjoy this film.Movin right along! - Radio_Jane
This was such a cute movie. I remember I used to get so excited when they sang the one song because they said "send someone to fetch us we're in Saskatchewan!" (I was living in Estevan at the time.) There is tons of witty dialogue in this "Hollywood or Bust" film, and everyone loves the muppetts. Keep an eye out for some great cameos too.Muppets Muppets & more Muppets - Reiddie
I grew up watching the Muppet Show & when i saw these movies I DVD I was sooooo excited. I love watching the muppets they make everyone feel better know matter what the issue is. I hope that everyone enjoys this movie the same way I do so that the muppets can live on for the next generations. THE MUPPETS ROCK!!!!!!!!
