Muppets fans when people talk about the movies that the The Muppets have starred in they always talk about the theatrically released movies. However very little to no people actually talk the direct to TV Muppet movies well now i'm going to put an end to that by talking about a Christmas movie that the The Muppets starred in an so join e as I talk about the Christmas Muppets movie that nobody actually talks about with the film in question being called simply just "It's A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie" enjoy.
The plot of the movie is The Muppets have until 6pm to save The Muppet Theatre from being foreclosed upon y an evil banker. Now then in terms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot of this actual film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot of this actual film was at best OK since the plot of this film really does nothing all that new or even all that actually exciting or even interesting with it's set up or plot line in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Starring in this film is Steve Whitmire as Kermit The Frog , Rizzo The Rat and Beaker and Dave Goelz as The Great Gonzo , Dr. Bunsen Honeydew , Waldorf and Zoot , Bill Barretta as Pepé The King Prawn , Bobo The Bear , Johnny Fiama , Swedish Chef , Lew Zealand , Howard Tubman and Rowlf The Dog , Eric Jacobson as Miss Piggy , Fozzie Bear , Animal and Yoda , Brian Henson as Scooter , Janice and Sal Minella , Kevin Clash as Sam Eagle , John Henson as Sweetums , John Kennedy as Dr. Teeth , Jerry Nelson as Robin The Frog , Statler , Floyd Pepper and The Announcer , Allan Trautman as Eugene The Tuba Player , David Arquette as Daniel , Joan Cusack as Rachel Bitterman , Matthew Lillard as Luc Fromage , Whoopi Goldberg as The Boss , William H. Macy as Glenn and Mel Brooks as The Voice Of Joe Snow.
Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was really freaking good. Which given whom is appearing / starring in this very film isn't to be that much of a surprise at all in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then for some strange reason about half way though it's running time this film becomes basically the The Muppets version of the Christmas classic film It's A Wonderful Life. Which I wouldn't mind at all except that out comes out of nowhere and it requires Kermit The Frog to act out of character in order to make it work which should never be the case for a plot line such as this one in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
So now then this film rather shockingly actually features a reference to the very first Muppet Movie because in this film in an alternate world in which Kermit The Frog had never even been born we see Doc Hopper's French-Fried Frog Legs which first seen in the very first Muppet Movie. This is in all honesty such a pretty freaking deep cut reference and it's one that i'm surprised that not alot of people have really freaking picked up since the The Muppet Movie is such a freaking good movie in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then I will admit that out of all the Christmas movies and specials that the The Muppets have done. This one is perhaps the worst one since not only does it have characters acting out of character but it also doesn't really give us a good and heartwarming Christmas message either since this film is basically ripping of It's A Wonderful Life and so we there for no how exactly everything in this film is going to play out and that means that there's very little to no actual surprises when it comes to this films actual plot and story in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
So now then this film actually quite a few movie parodies since the film spoofs the 2002 film How The Grinch Stole Christmas , Kill Bill and oddly enough Moulin Rouge and while some of these film parodies are funny there are sadly alot of them that just aren't that funny at all. Which is a shame because when this film does get a parody right it can be pretty freaking funny but the unfunny movie parodies very much outweigh the actually freaking funny movie parodies in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then this film has / had a grand total running time of exactly one hour and twenty eight minuets and fourteen seconds. Which is oddly enough a tad freaking bit on the long side for this film and part of that might be because they actually wrap up the plot that described to you at the very start of this very review by the forty five minuet mark which is then very quickly followed up by a rather freaking bad It's A Wonderful Life ripoff / spoof / parody and so there really was no freaking need for this movie to be as freaking long freaking as it freaking was in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
So now then this film is a comedy film after all that means that I have to actually talk about the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film and well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual comedy that's actually featured / presented to us in this very film was a very mixed bag of affairs for me personally. Since the joke / parody of How The Grinch Stole Christmas was indeed a really freaking funny parody there are alos quite alot of jokes that are in this very film and that quite frankly aren't as funny as other jokes that are also in this very freaking film in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Overall while this film quite clearly isn't the worst Muppet movie out there it's also not the The Muppets best work either but I can say with quite some certainty that this film is the worst Muppets Christmas special or Christmas movie that the The Muppets have ever made tho in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very film in this very review and as such that means that this very freaking film erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 6.5 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official the Muppets fandom wiki page and also lastly from Google Images. With my personally preferred website to use to get images this film being the official The Muppets fandom wiki page this is because all of the images that I got and that currently up and featured and on the official The Muppets fandom wiki page are all fairly high in quality and as well as being fairly high in definition.
