"To say this is the pick of the Muppet pictures is to damn James Frawley's movie with faint praise. To say that this is one of the funniest family films of the 1970s would be much closer to the mark." —Channel 4 Film
As Kermit makes his way to Hollywood, he assembles his team of like-minded individuals, including Fozzie Bear, Miss Piggy, Gonzo, and more. With wonderful songs, the coolest rock band in history, Dr. Teeth & the Electric Mayhem, and a surprisingly existential denouement, this classic film now celebrates its 30th anniversary.
