Films and the critics who hate them (741 movies items)

"During their late-70s heyday the Muppets won huge TV audiences with their corny puns and showbiz in-jokes, but stretched to feature length the formula loses some of its snap. - Andrea Gronvall, Chicago Reader We don't care about some dumb diamond the size of a baseball, and as Muppet fans we're probably also indifferent to Henson's ambition to satirize old movie genres. - Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times"

"Re-watch - May 8th If this was more than my 2nd viewing, I'd be surprised...unless of course I watched it a few times back in the early '80s which I kinda doubt. But it's safe to say given how little of it I recalled that I haven't seen it since the '80s, which gave me a fairly fresh take on the film.
