studioAT This is a decent enough Muppet film, with lots of fine moments and musical numbers. The underwater number with miss piggy in particular was a highlight.It does of course feature some nice human performances, and while not all of the cameos work (John Cleese!) on the whole this is a good second big screen outing for Kermit and the gang as they try to solve the mystery of what happened to Lady Holiday's (Diana Rigg)jewels.

FilmBuff1994 The Great Muppet Caper is a fantastic movie for the whole family to watch,with some of the most loved characters in history.It was one of the films I had in my DVD collection (and still do),and you to watch constantly,I was looking through my DVDs and found this,so I decided to watch it.It brought back some great memories,and since I'm older there where plenty of jokes I didn't get the first time around,thats how great The Muppets are,they make it funny for the whole family.Also there stuff I didn't realize,like John Cleeses hilarious cameo appearance which reminded of his character Basil from Fawlty Towers.Two twins,Kermit The Frog and Fozzie Bear,are trying to make it as new reporters with there photographer Gonzo.They head to England and stay at Happiness Hotel along with several other Muppets,and catch a scandal along with Miss Piggy that a gang have planned to steal jewels from a wealthy lady.The Muppets try to stop it and get a good story out of it.

kylehaines96 Director Jim Henson gives us the second Muppet movie with The Great Muppet Caper. The movie is about Kermit The Frog, Fozzie Bear, and Gonzo, are reporters for a news paper and are assigned to a story about Lady Holidays(played by Diana Rigg) jewels being stolen. When Lady Holidays necklace is stolen the robbery is put on Miss Piggy. The musical numbers in this film are outstanding. One running joke the movie has is that it breaks the 4th wall a lot. Despite some slow spots, The Great Muppet Caper is well worth your time.Rated G.1hr 38min/98min.***1/2/****

Galamoth Now, I think I can tell you my perspective on this movie from two points of view: When I was a kid and when I became an adult. As a kid, you take things for granted like the amazing puppet work in this movie, the set design, the great script. All you see if you're a kid watching this movie is a bunch of colorful characters involved in a light-hearted crime drama.But from the perspective of an adult, you appreciate everything in this movie. You appreciate the wacky humor which constantly breaks the fourth wall(even in the emotional scenes), and all the cameos from some terrific actors. You've got John Cleese, Peter Ustinov, Jack Warden, and even Peter Falk! Even though these are just cameos, this film has some terrific star power and actually appreciates those great actors that don't get nearly the appreciation they do today.This movie is seriously, seriously funny. The muppets are all wonderfully realized characters who actually all serve a dramatic purpose in the framework of the film, and they interact beautifully with the main stars of the film, Charles Grodin and Diana Rigg.Charles Grodin is excellent as this thief named Nicky who really steals the show with his fantastic overacting, which actually works to this movie's advantage and serves to make it even funnier.But seriously, if you've never seen The Great Muppet Caper before, you're missing out. The Muppets crack wise and tell great jokes in practically every scene and this film will leave you satisfied with a big smile on your face. This is actually the perfect family film. It's not too sappy, and even when you think it's going to get to that point, it goes in the opposite direction.
