A good movie

Every year I try to watch a franchise I’m rather oblivious of and if I recall correctly I started a couple of years ago with ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street’, than ‘Star Trek’ and last year I saw all the movies of ‘Planet of the Apes’. This year, I decided to watch all the Muppet movies and, of course, I had to start with this one. First of all, I think I never watched the Muppet Show (I did watch the cartoon ‘Muppet Babies’ a lot though) so I didn’t watch the movie feeling nostalgia and some past memories. Still, I have to admit it, it was pretty good. Indeed, most of the puppets are really fun, some of jokes were quite hilarious and those puppeteers definitely did an incredible job to give life to those characters. However, even though I’m fully aware that the plot was of course of no real importance, I had a rather hard time to care about what they were going through and I was expecting something a little bit more meaty. Furthermore, I’m not a huge fan of musicals and even though some of the tunes were pretty catchy, most of them rather bored me. Still, even though it didn’t really blow me away, it remains a nice watch and it is definitely worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
