As far as quality goes, the Muppet films are all over the board. From mediocre entries such as Muppets From Space and The Muppet Christmas Carol, to masterpieces like The Muppets Take Manhattan and the 2011 reboot, you can never tell whether you're about to watch dull puppet wizardry, or a new favorite film. Unfortunately, Muppet Treasure Island ranks among the very worst of the Muppet films, and ... read more

Actually, I already saw this one a couple of months ago with my daughter in Dutch and, to be honest, I wasn't really impressed but I wanted to give it a second shot, this time, in English. To my surprise, I really enjoyed it, even more than 'The Muppet Christmas' which was so far my favorite installment starring those funny characters. Basically, they followed the same template, they took a famous... read more

It’s nearly impossible to mess up a film with the Muppets, especially one that simply plugs them into an already existing story like in Muppet Treasure Island. That doesn’t mean every single movie is going to be golden, and Muppet Treasure Island is definitely a bronze medal entry.

There’s a few funny gags, and the musicals numbers are filled with the same sense of anarchic g... read more

Pop Culture Phenomenon Films: 90’s (1697 movies items)

" A Muppet version of Treasure Island, with Tim Curry having the time of his life, as Long John Silver, and subsequently you had too! I also had fun watching it, too! The box office was decent enough, but then again it was also up against Broken Arrow and Happy Gilmore. Critics did however, really enjoyed it. Interestingly enough, Hormel Foods, the makers of Spam, were not very happy with one of the characters, being called Sp’am."
