June 27, 2008 |  | The best movie in the entire Muppets feature films series!, |  |
I was only 10 years old when this movie came out, in '79, and after seeing it once or twice, in the theaters, I was hooked on it! Then, when it was shown on cable, I recorded it on video cassette so that I could watch it whenever I want. Then, a few years ago, after it came out on DVD, in 2001, I ordered my own copy of it. I love this movie for many reasons: the multitude of Muppets characters such as Kermit The Frog, Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Gonzo The Great, Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem, Rowlf the Dog, etc., the many guest stars like Steve Martin, James Coburn, Paul Williams, Carol Kane, Milton Berle, Mel Brooks, etc., the plot, in which Kermit, after being discovered by a Hollywood agent, played by Dom Deluise, leaves his home in the swamp, heads west to Hollywood & picks up other Muppet friends, along the way, who have the same dream of being famous & in showbiz. But, during the journey, Kermit has to avoid a despicable fellow named Doc Hopper, played by Charles Durning, who wants Kermit as his spokesfrog for a chain of french-fried frog legs restaurants that Hopper's planning to open. I also enjoy the soundtrack, especially songs like "The Rainbow Connection", which was the favorite song of my mom (God rest her soul), "Moving Right Along" and "I'm Going To Go Back There, Someday", which is my favorite song. What I really like is the dialogue, especially the funny lines, such as when Kermit & the Hollywood agent are talking about alligators, and Kermit says, "Read my lips, all-i-ga-tors!" or when Kermit & Fozzie go into the church where Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem are playing, they look at each other & Fozzie says, "They don't look like Presbyterians to me!" This is a wonderful movie & I recommend it to anyone that likes the Muppets, comedy movies, or just movies, in general, because, this movie is terrific!
May 9, 2008This is one of those movies that is timeless. I watched it with my young grandchildren recently (ages 5 & 6) and they laughed their heads off. This was a great way to introduce them to the muppets as they had never seen them before. They wanted to watch more muppet movies.
