Critics' reviews

"Smart and winning, this sixth Muppet feature film comes closest to recapturing the pure joy of the 1979 original!"

Los Angeles Times
"The new Muppets movie lacks the kind of excitement the first ones generated, maybe because Muppets have become a little dated, except for younger viewers (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)"

Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times
The balance of character, plot, irreverent humor and innate decency that made some of the earlier Muppet movies so welcome is lost.

Lawrence Van Gelder: The New York Times
"Nearly reinvents the Muppet genre!"

Miami Herald
The movie has a clever premise that will appeal to all ages
