    The Muppets come to London! Whoo Hoo, this might be my favourite of the Muppet films but only by a tiny bit. I love the Muppets!

    This Muppet film never really did it for me. It's certainly not the worst in the series, but it seems to lack the "magic" of the first two.

    That being said the bicycle sequence and the dancing are both amazing pieces of puppetry.

    fantastic, possibly the best of the muppet films

    Aw, probably the only Muppet Movie I didn't like. It was all British, and the Muppets are an American creation, so I wasn't too interested. They also felt out of character, solving mysteries instead of their show business. I couldn't get into it after the awesomeness of the first...( read more) Muppet Movie.

    This muppet movie had a really good story and great cameos as usual!
  • August 19, 2009
    This is a classic Muppet film. All the muppet gang are back in this adventure and are still funny as ever. Your typical muppet humour but it works. A fun film for kids and the family to enjoy.

    I was brought up on Muppets as a kid and so was my kids... Cute movie.

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

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. full review
