The old
Muppets’ theatre is in danger: greedy oil businessman Tex Richman wants to get
control over it to dig for oil reserves that are under the theatre. Walther,
who is on the trip to LA with his brother, accidentally hears the plan, and now
it is the race against the time: Muppets have to reunite to raise $10,000,000
to save the theatre.
When I
first saw the trailers for the Muppets, I was amazed. Finally, good
old-fashioned parody is coming along, with nice little subtle jokes about
almost just everything on Earth! “The Immigrant Song” trailer was probably even
better than the original one. However, the actual movie lacks this grit, and it
is easy to understand why.
