This was a really endearing movie. Jason nailed it, he balanced the right amount of corniness with comedy and heart.

I, especially, like this blurb:
You don't know what you've got till it's gone, and it turns out the movie world has been a lesser place without the Muppets.

^Wow bold statement. While I have no problems with The Muppets being considered awesome, my favorite this year has been 50/50.

Well, if the way MetaCritic listed this as a "50" review, once this goes on RT, the perfect 100% is over.

That's the problem with most award shows...why can't a movie just be awarded for being entertaining and fun...that's what the movies are SUPPOSED to be about. I think makers of The Muppets have given us all a fantastic Christmas present.

While I do assume this movie is going to be fucking great to see today...I'd be able to believe that it's also actually a well constructed film as well.

After finding out that Ricky Gervais and Danny Trejo's cameos were cut, the fact that the super secret cameo is only

some nice nostalgic moments and playing to the audience for this forty something but the movie itself was very one note
downer scene (complete with downer music) followed by uplifting scene (complete with uplifting music) .... wash, rinse, repeat, repeat, repeat ....
Amy Adams, very easy on the eyes

Saw it. Liked it while watching, and upon reflection, realize I loved it. It might have had melodrama, but it was 100% self aware of it, even acknowledging it. Segel delivered the goods, and Amy Adams was not given much, but it was obvious she was thrilled to be in the movie. I give it four out of five stars, or A-.
