Muppets go Modern
Although not as good as the classic muppet movies, this movie still is enjoyable. Brain Henson has taken his father's muppets into the modern day-with space ships, roommates and popular music. In DVD the quality can't be beat! The story is fun and original and focuses on the ever allusive orgin of our favorite weird muppet, Gonzo. It's great for a family movie night and has laughs for everyone in the family!

An alien?
I rally did like this move, I love the Muppets but, I was very surprised that they said Gonzo is an alien. Only because I remember the Jim Henson movie, "The Great Santa Claus Switch" (1970, I was born until '82 but have still seen this movie). This is the FIRST time Gonzo was ever featured. Anyway, in that movie they say he is a Frackel (no not Fraggle) he was a bit of an outsider to the Frackles because he did not have the trademark large teeth, and lived in a cigar box. It's said that Jim Henson liked the little outsider so much he added him as a permanent cast.
So..what is Gonzo....

This is no "Muppet Movie"
Jim Henson is sorely missed.
A "Muppets in Space" segment within a half-hour Muppet Show repeat has more laughs. I actually could not believe the violence (including a karate chop to the groin) in a Muppet entertainment. In typical modern movie fashion, there were even men with automatic weapons running around.
This is a Hollywood bastardization of family feel-good quality entertainment that Jim Henson always strived for. Henson would definitely not have approved.
A talented supporting cast is wasted, as well.
We end up not really caring about anyone in this very thinly-plotted disaster. I saw this today on HBO, and frankly stopped paying attention after 45 minutes.
A huge disappointment to someone who could not miss a weekly Muppet Show episode when he was growing up. This movie is simply not that funny.

a lot of fun but WHY FULLSCREEN???
The story is cute and has some pretty good SFX too. But what idiot is still chopping widescreen movies down to fullscreen??!
