  No, no, no... We didn't need or want to know that Gonzo is an alien. I love Gonzo, but I love him as the weirdo of the group, the one who doesn't belong, many of us identify with that. This movie says, oh guess what, Gonzo isn't weird at all, he belongs somewhere, and… More
  No, no, no... We didn't need or want to know that Gonzo is an alien. I love Gonzo, but I love him as the weirdo of the group, the one who doesn't belong, many of us identify with that. This movie says, oh guess what, Gonzo isn't weird at all, he belongs somewhere, and if you identified with him before you were wrong about him. It made me really mad. This is the worst Muppets movie I've seen. Plus, it goes for all the stupid jokes that are supposed to make preteen boys laugh and no one else.

  Though not being a personal fan favorite by many fans of the Muppets, I think it deserves more recognition than it has gotten. It delves into the past of my personal favorite Muppet, Gonzo, and the film is very creative, and of course very funny. Jeffrey Tambor does a great job as the villain agent who kidnaps Gonzo, and he comes off as being both a funny character, and a ruthless and horrible character. Also this is probably the Muppet movie that I quote the most, because a lot of the film's dialogue is so quotable and very funny, and to me it is the funniest of the Muppet films, but funniest doesn't mean it is my favorite.

  A case of, the last good flick before the franchise lost its way, this is more fun Muppet mayhem but starting to lose their nack. The beginning sequence as all the Muppets wake up and have a good sing song is brilliant, show stopper for sure. Other nice moments include the Undercover Agency with main baddie Jeff Tambor and his big dumb assistant 'Bobo the Bear' both of which are good for a laugh. Lots of cameo's, most of which aren't really needed I guess but as time progresses it seems the Muppets tend to rely on more big cameo's as an attraction. I guess the plot for this is a little weak really, that's the problem, 'Gonzo' is a great Muppet but maybe we didn't need to see where he comes from and the fact he's an alien doesn't really fit for me, oh well. Oh, dont forget 'Pepe' dressing in his tutu, classic :)

  This is one of the better Muppet movies because we get discover what Gonzo really is: an alien! This one has a pretty good story and like all the others, its hilarious! The puppets and celebrity cameos by David Arquette and Hollywood Hogan are hilarious. Great writing as well. You can never go wrong with the Muppets! I know I can't! Gonzo: "Hey, Rizzo, come here! I think my Kap'n Alphabet is sending me a message." Rizzo the Rat: "Yeah, I know what you mean. I had some guacamole last night, and it's still speaking to me."

  Sadly, I was expecting more.... I LOVED the old Muppet Movies that were so clever, but this was mainly directed at kid humor with not enough for adults to appreciate it. Sad, Muppets usually carry a huge potential.

  It only really gets 4 stars for the fact it?s a Muppet film but it does have good gags and they tell their own story for a change but the music lets it down as do some of the new Muppets (Apart from Pepe, he is the best thing to happen to the Muppets in a long time) The DVD blooper… More

  Muppets From Space just kind of does what every other aging, once-great kids show does--gets on whatever bandwagon is riding high at the time (in this case aliens) and relies heavily on C-list celebrity cameos. Muppets From Space also dares to answer the age old question "What the Hell is Gonzo Anyway?" with anticlimactic results. Well, anticlimactic for those of us who grew up on The Muppet Show. The good news is that despite the odd soundtrack and now-dated catchphrase usage this movie still has some entertaining and pretty funny moments and is nowhere nearly as bad as I was expecting it to be. Either that or my 2 year-old daughter has seriously warped my tastes...

  Pretty cute movie. Got to love The Muppets.

  Not as good as the other Muppet movies. I was turned off by the lack of original songs. Ok for the kids.

  I've got this piece of jello ey?

  Cute movie, Gonzo is tied for my favorite muppet with Fozzie.

  A strange film to make after A Christmas Carol and Treasure Island. The film that finally reveals what the Great Gonzo really is. Hum...it's called Muppets From Space and Gonzo looks like an alien...I wonder what he could be. A revelation that was unnecessary and definitely unsurprising causes the film to be exclusive only to Muppet enthusiasts. A few humourous scene from Pepe (the best of the generation 2 Muppets that came from the short lived Muppets Tonight) cannot carry a tiresome screenplay and lack of enjoyment or emotion from the otherwise colorful characters. The franchise went into a 12 year dormant stage (a few TV/DVD films not withstanding) after this misstep.

  Muppets from Space isn't nearly as good as the other Muppet features, but with a few fun scenes and a lighthearted feel, it is still a cute movie. Kids, however, will be hoping for more space action. Overall Rating: 62

  Love this movie!!!!

  It wasn't the greatest muppet movie, but it still delivered - offering up laughs and funny celebrity guest spots.

  The Henson Company is so good at what they do! The Muppet's have been a fixture in homes for the last 20+ years and this is one of the essential Muppet adventures! So many great cameos, and this is so well written and funny. Every single Muppet movie is so well thought out,… More
  The Henson Company is so good at what they do! The Muppet's have been a fixture in homes for the last 20+ years and this is one of the essential Muppet adventures! So many great cameos, and this is so well written and funny. Every single Muppet movie is so well thought out, detailed, and acted that I am surprised that they aren't more loved and treasured. This is a very special film and should be in everyone's film library.

  I love the Independence Day references in this movie.

  You can't go wrong with the Muppets and especially Gonzo the Great.
