We once again find the beloved Muppets in another awkward scenario where they just seem to be unable to fit in properly and unable to showcase their likeable humour. We have another mediocre entry in the form of “Muppets From Space”.

In “Muppets From Space”, we find Gonzo the Great has always classed himself and has been classed a ‘whatever’ and he longs to find others like him. Then he is contacted via alphabetical cereal by an alien race, which Gonzo belongs to. With the help of Kermit the Frog and the rest of the Muppets, Gonzo tries to escape a government organisation and find his people so that he can go to his real home.

I do think Kermit the Frog is a likeable character and is probably my favourite Muppet. Miss Piggy is enjoyable in some places in this movie. I thought Gonzo was sadly just okay in this one. Fozzie Bear, Statler, Waldorf, Rizzo the Rat, Beaker, Doctor Bunsen Honeydew and the Swedish Chef were all fine but the rest I found annoying, especially that pathetic and darn right stupid Pepe the King Prawn character. Although like I mentioned, some of the Muppets are fine, almost all of them have bad dialog in at least one place. This is a real shame because I do love some of them.

I confess to laughing at a few moments in this movie such as the scene where Kermit mentions how they never leave a Muppet behind only to be told they just left Beaker and Doctor Bunsen in the middle of nowhere. However, the movie as a whole just isn’t that funny. A few good chuckles aren’t enough to save “Muppets From Space” as the film suffers from overdone product placement, some weak lines and of course a pathetic plot. With other good “Muppet” stuff out there don’t be tempted by “Muppets From Space”.
