I know this film seems to have slipped under the radar and doesn't seem to have made as much money as it's predecessor - but I actually thought it was great!

Fun plot, great songs and seemed to be more about the actual Muppets rather than the human actors.

Although missing the heart and magic of the 2011 version, it was absolutely bonkers and a lot funnier than the original - felt more 'Muppety'. Also Constantine was hilarious and great new addition!
May have been worth the entrance fee for the Miss Piggy and Celine Dion duet alone...

    I wanted to see it, but cannot stand Ricky Gervais (as i think may be a lot of people's problem), so im probably gonna have to give it a miss.
    Is he in it a lot?

    Ho ho. A complete muppet in a muppet film.

    Gervais till trying to weasel his way into the US mainstream is he? How does this sit with his 'edgy' pick on something humour then?

    I loathe Gervais (can't watch ANYTHING with him in) but he is quite bearable in this. Like the other human actors, he has his fair share of scenes but in no way dominates or takes over. The Muppets steal the show as always...
