Product Description

Amazon.com Essential Video

This simply irresistible first feature from the Muppets has Kermit the frog going from the swamps to Hollywood to be a star. As he travels and picks up his usual friends (Miss Piggy, Fozzie the Bear), Doc Hopper (Charles Durning) is in pursuit, looking for Kermit to be the spokesman for his frog-leg cuisine. A loose rendition of The Wizard of Oz, the film incorporates the same cagey humor as their breakout syndicated TV series The Muppet Show. This is one of the few times that a human cast (notably Steve Martin, Orson Welles, and Carol Kane) are integrated seamlessly with nonhumans. Worth noting is Paul Williams's score, which includes the Oscar-nominated "The Rainbow Connection." Williams's music, much like Howard Ashman's work on The Little Mermaid and other Disney films, provides more than atmosphere; there's a degree of magic here. Williams did not work on the future Muppet films until A Muppet Christmas Carol. His contributions made these films the best of the Muppet series. --Doug Thomas

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the greatest films of my childhood, May 4 2003
This review is from: The Muppet Movie (DVD)
I don't care if I'm 22 or not,I just love this film.The Muppet Movie si the best of the Muppet films,it's funny,cute,charming and just plain fun to watch.Filled with cameos from some of Hollywood's best and with some of the best songs like my favourite which is The Rainbow Connection sung by Kermit and the begining of the film.The film as some very memorable lines but the most memorable are Kermit's at the end "Life's like a movie,write your own ending."The Muppet films aren't as good as they were in the past,so just watch the first three Muppet films and love them.Jim Henson will always be a genuis and will always be Kermit The Frog.

5.0 out of 5 stars Make Way for Muppets, Nov 17 2002
By

This review is from: The Muppet Movie (DVD)
This is a classic film to any child who is a child of the Muppets. Jim Henson took something that was already great and decided to make it even better. Giving people a look at how the Muppets all actually met, Henson provided the much needed background for people to truly love these furry little people/animals/and Gonzos that much more. Plus, who could not love this movie for the shear fact that it opens with one of the greatest songs ever..."The Rainbow Connection." It has that childlike innocence that allows children to love it, however, having watched this movie so many times in my life, I find that even as an adult I find jokes I missed as a child. Every child should be forced to watch this movie to find out what it means to have friends who care about you...

5.0 out of 5 stars The Original and the Best!, Oct 27 2002
By 
C. Taylor (USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Muppet Movie (DVD)
Back when they use to only put noteworthy people on stamps, I always wondered how long it would be before Jim Henson would grace our envelopes. The man was a genius and his wonderful talents were put to the greatest use: to make millions of people happy. I am one of those millions of people. The Muppet movies were among my favorites as a child and today, in my early 20s, they entertain me on a whole new level. The Muppet Movie is easily the best of the six Muppet feature films. It's sharply satirical, highly imaginative and, at its core, is extremely heartfelt. I love Kermit sitting in his swamp, humbly singing "Rainbow Connection." I love Gonzo's quote "Look at all those stars...you get lost in a sky like that," followed by his wonderful song. And I love Kermit's final words in the film: "Life's like a movie, write your own ending." Thank you Mr. Henson, on behalf of all those you made happy.
