A classic film exploring the origins of the muppets; After a chance meeting with a talent scout, Kermit the Frog heads to Hollywood, dreaming about the world of show business. Along the way, Fozzie, Gonzo and Miss Piggy join him in hopes of becoming big stars, too. But everything goes awry when Kermit falls into the clutches of Doc Hopper (Charles Durning), a villain who wants to promote — at all costs — his network of fast-food restaurants that sell fried frog-legs.
“Jolson sang, Barrymore spoke, Garbo laughed, and now Kermit the Frog rides a bicycle… If you can figure out how they were able to show Kermit pedaling across the screen, then you are less a romantic than I am: I prefer to believe he did it himself.” – Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
“With plenty of Muppet madness, puppetry feats and celebrity cameos, the first Muppets movie is a big-hearted lesson in self-belief” – The Guardian
