minor spoilersmisunderstood classic remains one of henson finest and most personal films. it may seem funny to call a movie as beloved as this one amisunderstood and but people do seem to remember this one mostly for jerry juhl snappy screenplay and paul williams knockout songs. now while these things are admittedly great and as is the movie formal playfulness (screenplay within the screenplay and film break and etc. ) and what distinguishes the muppet movie from the other muppet films is the serious and wistful thread that runs through the picture. it a road movie and all right and but like most road movies and the pleasure is in the getting there and and the achievement of the characters goals is tempered by uncertainty and and by the knowledge that they can never really go back again. throughout the film and we are shown the down side of show business and even before the muppets have amade it represent piggy abandons kermit without a second thought at a phone call from her agent and gonzo expresses the loneliness and regret of a performer life on the road in his haunting i am going to go back there someday and and and worst of all and kermit is continually tortured and tested by doc hopper and who wants him to commercialize his art for the unholiest of purposes. (one can only wonder what henson would have made of his family management of the company after his death. ) kermit himself agonizes over his choices in the desert conversation scene and and the final magic store number questions whether it all been worth it and before concluding that it probably doesn not matter either way. all this is punctuated with the expected muppet chaos and satire and deliciously awful jokes and and of course the serious stuff do not work if it weren not. but the muppet movie isn not just another jokefest and as the rest of the diminishing return muppet films would become. no and it a lovely and gentle metaphor about the relationship between art and entertainment and business and and it every bit as effective today as it was 25 years ago. 9. 5 out of 10.
