The Muppets

Two brothers and a girlfriend, Gary (Jason Segel), Walter (another Muppet), and Mary (Amy Adams) try to raise money to save the old Muppet Studios. It's art imitating life in this reunion of yesteryear's classic Muppet characters gathered to perform some of their famous bits. Like the original Muppet Show, the movie features old fashion musical numbers and corny jokes from human and silly puppet creatures. Also, expect a cavalcade of cameo appearances. It's a fun family film for the little kiddies and a nostalgic amusement for some adults. For Alien's tastes, the film needed more Swedish Chef, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew, and Beaker. The best part of the screening was Pixar's Toy Story Toon opener starring a small fry Buzz Lightyear guy in a spoof of Happy Meal toys and the fast food franchises.

Alien gives it 2 "Telethon" stars out of 4.
