At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

First of all, in the first musical number, they said that sequels are never quite as good. Well they got that right, because it was crap (excuse the minor language). I felt the song pretty much gave everyone an excuse to give us a film that was underpar, and BOY WAS IT UNDERPAR

This new Muppet's movie started out pretty good the whole ides of having a evil frog switch with a Kermit made me continue watching it, but it all fell apart when they started the singing I mean why have a story like this and then add some really crappy music with it I have to say this would have been one of the best kid flicks I would have surly bought if it weren't for the long crappy not needed music even the cameos were kinda crappy and didn't add very much to the movie at all I prefer the first Muppet's movie from 2011 because I expected ever thing from music and comdie and I really enjoyed it not so much this one thou this is what i get for not watching the trailer first

After being successfully rebooted in 2011 in The Muppets they return in Muppets Most Wanted and end up in London (their spiritual home) as well as other European cities.The famous again Muppets have a new manager Dominic Badguy (Ricky Gervais) and they embark on a world tour but the tour is a front as Badguy and his cohort Constantine (A Kermit lookalike who has replaced Kermit) rob historical venues across Europe. Tina Fey is fun as the prison guard in a Russian gulag where the real Kermit has been sent to.Ty Burrell is Interpol Inspector Napoleon, co investigating with CIA agent Sam the Eagle while at the same time poking fun at French stereotypes.There are many cameos some are blink and you miss them ranging from James McAvoy, Lady Gaga, Christoph Waltz, Frank Langella, Ray Liotta, Danny Trejo, Salma Hayek and Tom Hiddleston.The film is fun enough, a solid and enjoyable film with a good musical number (The Gulag Song) near the end of the film. Its not as good as The Muppets and borrows from earlier films such as The Great Muppet Caper. Then again the film acknowledges that sequels are not as good as the original film in its opening number. Jason Segel's absence is felt in this film and it also does feel a little bit flabby here and there.

I grew up watching "Muppet Show" re-runs and various Muppet movies, and while I enjoyed THE MUPPETS (2011) immensely, its sequel MUPPETS MOST WANTED (2014) feels a little closer to that classic Muppet magic.Although very much a loving tribute to "The Muppet Show", THE MUPPETS had Kermit and the gang in almost supporting roles to Jason Segel, Amy Adams, and newbie Walter. The movie was about getting the band back together, so to speak, and had a very meta sensibility about the Muppets' current pop culture relevance, which was a neat way to introduce the gang to a new generation as Disney sought to re-establish the property in feature films. This sequel puts the Muppets front and center again, in a wacky adventure reminiscent of their films from thirty years ago, complete with music and celebrity cameos galore.Picking up right where THE MUPPETS left off, MUPPETS MOST WANTED sees Kermit, Fozzie, Miss Piggy and co. take their Muppet Show act on a world tour with manager Dominic Badguy (Ricky Gervais). Constantine, the world's most dangerous frog, escapes from a Russian prison and takes Kermit's place with the Muppets while Kermit is mistakenly incarcerated in Siberia. Using the tour as a front, Constantine and Dominic rob museums across Europe, ultimately seeking to steal the Crown Jewels of England.Ricky Gervais, in the role of antagonist, seems born to play opposite the Muppets and it's always a treat to see Tina Fey, who runs the Siberian gulag. Ty Burrell of "Modern Family" plays a French Interpol agent who teams with Sam the Eagle of the C.I.A. to track down the museum burglars. The film is chock full of surprise cameos from other celebrities, which I won't spoil. I will say that it's nice to see that celebrities whose cameos were cut out of the previous film have been given the chance to appear on-screen in this one (Ricky Gervais, Danny Trejo, Rob Corddry).Director James Bobin and co-writer Nicholas Stoller return from the previous film, along with the character of Walter, who is integrated into the Muppet family but still plays a key role in the plot. The songs, once again by Bret McKenzie (one-half of New Zealand folk parody duo Flight of the Conchords), are peppy and a lot of fun, though they haven't gotten the award recognition of the first film's Oscar-winning "Man or Muppet"."We're Doing a Sequel", the opening number, is very Muppet-y, calling to mind "Hey a Movie!" from THE GREAT MUPPET CAPER (1981). "I'm Number One" is a toe-tapping duet between Constantine and Gervais. "The Big House" is Tina Fey's big number, backed by a chorus of doo-wopping prisoners. Constantine's ridiculous disco love song "I'll Get You What You Want (Cockatoo in Malibu)" has a definite Flight of the Conchords flavor. "Interrogation Song" is a bouncing talk-sung number featuring Ty Burrell, Sam the Eagle, and various Muppets. "Something So Right" starts as a ballad for Miss Piggy, but grows into a veritable anthem, with a grooving interlude. And the movie closes with a variation of the classic "Together Again" from THE MUPPETS TAKE MANHATTAN (1984).(It's interesting that the characters in the film seem to think the movie is titled "The Muppets... Again", which apparently was the original working title. "Muppets Most Wanted" conveys more about the film plot-wise, but "The Muppets... Again" would've fit the bookending songs more closely.)MUPPETS MOST WANTED is a ton of fun for all ages. The film shows respect for the Muppet past, with nods to "The Muppet Show" and the earlier movies, while finding a winning formula to showcase what's best about the Muppets to modern moviegoers. Kermit the Frog, Fozzie Bear, The Great Gonzo, Miss Piggy, Rowlf the Dog, Bunsen & Beaker, Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem, Scooter, Sam Eagle, Statler & Waldorf, Lew Zealand, Crazy Harry, Sweetums, Pepe the Prawn, Rizzo the Rat, Beauregard, Uncle Deadly, Bobo, the Muppet Newsman, and the Swedish Chef are all back and in fine form. The songs are catchy and upbeat. The human co-stars are terrific. It's a good time all-round.
