I thought that too. The little girl next to me was forever asking her Dad, what did he say, and what does he mean etc!

A film of good moments, some good songs & some good gags. But poor script overall, hampered by bad plot. Disappointing overall. Cameos pointless and frankly annoying.

6.5/10

Saw this on Sunday morning and thought it was a high 7/10. Really enjoyed the songs, especially Constantine singing "I Can Get You Anything" and all those Gulag numbers. This is one for the adults and fans of the old Muppet Show I feel.
My dad and I thought our Fozzy Bear and Animal treat bags were great as well.

Saw this last week with my family.

I must say that after reading the reviews online, I was expecting a great and funny film. However I was sorely disappointed. It was neither and I kept looking at my watch thinking when is this going to end. My daughter aged 3 also looked bored but did announce that she liked Kermit.
Didn't hear laughter from the audience either.
5/10 from us

Just got back from seeing this, wasn't the biggest fan of the previous film and although I thought this was an improvement I still wasn't blown away.

However, I did enjoy spotting the numerous cameos & a couple of the musical numbers were quite good so overall this did enough to get a 7/10 from me...
