If Muppets from Space lacks the magic and wit of its cinematic predecessors, this pleasingly silly space romp is funny and clever enough to make for better-than-average family entertainment. Read critic reviews

Aug 25, 2012The Muppets move from classic literature to sci-fi adventure in Muppets From Space. The film follows Gonzo's search to find out who he is and where he comes from after he seemingly receives a secret message from beyond. The series returns to the cameo format and features appearance by David Arquette, Ray Liotta, Kathy Griffin, and Andie MacDowell, among others. However, a lot of the Muppet brand of humor is missing; breaking the fourth wall, impromptu musical numbers, etc. In fact, the music in the film is completely uncharacteristic of the Muppets, it's all retro pop music instead of original song and dance numbers. There's fun and laughs to be had in Muppets From Space, but it's not true to the Muppet formula of comedy or to the characters themselves.Dann M Super Reviewer

Oct 23, 2011Muppets from Space isn't nearly as good as the other Muppet features, but with a few fun scenes and a lighthearted feel, it is still a cute movie. Kids, however, will be hoping for more space action. Overall Rating: 62Bradley J Super Reviewer

Sep 27, 2011I'm quite unsure as to what rating to give this movie, despite the fact that I quite enjoyed it. It's not the best Muppet movie I've seen, but in its own it's entertaining. I just don't think it's as funny as it should be, but the Muppets are at least charming enough to carry it to a certain point and not much more past that. The funniest scenes are with Miss Piggy (as is typical) but there are not enough scene with her to make the movie better. So overall, a charming and light movie that probably isn't as good as it should've been. But I can find worse movies to watch than this one.Jesse O Super Reviewer
