Pros: Cute, entertaining movie with the Muppets.
Cons: Nothing for me.
When I was growing up, I watched The Muppet Show all the time. I saw The Muppet Movie and The Great Muppet Caper, the first two movies featuring the Muppets. In 1984, I went ...

Pros: The Muppet family is strong in this one... and the Wedding!
Cons: Too many humans, some rehash of "The Muppet Movie" plot
For the last 19 years, a debate has split the Muppet-loving community in two. Happily, these things almost never end in violence, because the majority of Muppet lovers are rather spindly, and tend to flail their arms around a lot when they get excited....

Pros: Good songs, fun Muppet adventure
Cons: Unoriginal and too different from other films in the series
The third film featuring Jim Henson's television creations is an enjoyable, if unbalanced, romp through a very old looking New York from the mid-eighties. While perhaps one of the weaker of the currently six major Muppet films, their Manhattan...

Pros: Clever use of the beloved Muppet characters.
Cons: Plot and situations were old when Mickey and Judy did them.
Despite a certain mismatch between audience and subject matter, my When a Man Loves a Woman concert was a success. Those darling gay boys took great delight in making me feel welcome in their society. When I told them I had been feeling a bit...

Pros: More great music; many funny moments
Cons: A new "human" sidekick; plot is rehashed from the first film
"Well, looks like the frog and pig are in love."
"Yeah. Kinda makes you sick, doesn't it?"

Pros: it's funny, it's got great music, it's the muppets
Cons: not released by Disney and the video quality is horrible
I got Muppets take Manhatten a little while ago, I just got off the muppet high from watching season 3 so I decided to take a chance when I saw this in a bargain bin. Now I do remember watching the movie a time or two when I was growing up, but it's ...

Pros: Muppets
Cons: They Take Manhattan
Due to unforeseen circumstances, I won't be reviewing the poignant and hilarious The Muppet Movie but instead its retread, the diverting though medium rare The Muppets Take Manhattan. The third and final Muppet film to which the missed Jim Henson...

Pros: songs, characters, storyline, gags
Cons: bittersweet experience
I've seen this movie dozen of times since its release in 1984. And for some reason even I can't thoroughly understand, I grow more emotionally involved with "The Muppets Take Manhattan" every time I see it.
The pic is a celebration of the old...

Pros: Hey, it's the Muppets!
Cons: Not their best work; weak on music, & the most dated of all Muppet movies.
The Muppets Take Manhatten is an okay movie for Muppet fans. Back in the 80's, the Muppets had been gone for a while (the Muppet show had stopped production a few years back & Jim Henson was working on other projects). Then this came out, and our...

Pros: Interesting plot, neat cameos, good songs, change of scenery
Cons: Most main Muppets are gone for a big chunk of the film; there aren't as many songs as the previous 2 Muppet films
Jim Henson's "The Muppets Take Manhattan" (1984) is the final venture into feature films which involved Henson and fellow Muppeteer Richard Hunt. This is the last film in which viewers see and hear the characters of...

Cons: none that i could see
I just picked this movie up from the Library today because when I was growing up I used to watch the Muppets all the time. I heard this was a great movie to watch. Its a musical movie with the muppets.
Broadway bound the Muppets take...

Pros: Rated G, colorful, lively and musical.
Cons: None
I am not really sure how it exactly happened, but my 14 month old son has completely fallen in love with the Muppets. We literally have a huge selection of children's movies in our home: Disney feature films, Veggie Tales, Blue's Clues, the list is...

Pros: Just gets funnier with age
Cons: None
That's the opening number, and the theme of this movie, my personal favorite of Muppet films. Kermit, Piggy and the gang graduate from college and head out to the Big Apple to try and get their original play on Broadway.
Without much luck,...
