Muppets Most Wanted



In 2011 I left the movie "The Muppets" thinking "Wow! I hope they make a sequel!" 3 years later I get my wish. The jokes are perfectly delivered and the breaking of the 4th wall is hilarious. I normally don't tolerate musicals, but the songs in this film don't take themselves seriously and are more satirical then dramatic, and even when the songs are slow there are plenty of visual gags to keep your attention. I had the soundtrack to the original on ad nauseam and I will be playing the soundtrack to this twice as much. There's a joke in the opening song that the "sequel's never quite as good." They're right. It's not as good. It's better.
Grade: A+ 10/10 5/5 stars
