Product Description:
The owner of a bank (miss bitterman) wants to own the muppet theatre. When she tricks pepe into giving her the only copy of the contract she changes it so the muppets have very little time to pay off the debt. The muppets have to make a lot of sacrifices to save up so they can keep the theater. Studio: Tcfhe/mgm Release Date: 10/14/2008 Run time: 88 minutes Rating: Pg
Amazon.com:
Kermit takes center stage in this hilarious, parody-laden celebration of Muppetry, pulsating with original music, a star-studded cast of human cameos, and a heartwarming story reminiscent of It’s a Wonderful Life. Joan Cusack plays the deliciously villainous Miss Bitterman, a ruthless banker who succeeds in foreclosing on the Muppet Theatre only days before Kermit’s Christmas extravaganza. As Kermit loses his livelihood, he plunges into the “I wish I’d never been born” mind-set instantly recognizable to George Bailey fans. It’s going to take some Divine intervention (Whoopi Goldberg is cast as God, no less), plus a little help from a heavenly “Clarence.” Despite some moments where the script seems adrift (how hard it must be to live up to the irresistible precedent set by the 1979 premier Muppet Movie) and some humor that borders on risqu茅, Fozzie and the gang are in fine form. The message is sweet: dreams are as vital to life as loyal friendships are to see them through. (Ages 5 and older) –Lynn Gibson

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Disappointing when compared with Christmas Carol
This muppet version of “It’s a Wonderful Life” is passable, but if you are expecting the “magic” of the “Muppet Christmas Carol” you will be sorely disappointed. Frankly, we barely laughed at all when watching this movie. Whoppi Goldberg, who is normally a fine actress, portrayed a very contrived and forced rendition of the Almighty and other characters lacked interest as well. I’ve seen other reviewers call this film “boring” and overall, I think I would have to agree.
Rating: 
- NOT FOR CHILDREN!!!!
We didn’t even make it to the end of this movie. Horrific scenes for children, such as beer-bonging egg nog, Kermit frozen to death, emergency room resuscitation, Frog Legs restaurant being observed by a horrified Kermit, and sexual trash talk to mention only a few offensive scenes for as far as we got before I threw this movie in the trash. What were they thinking? Not even funny for adult Muppets fans.
Rating: - Jim Henson must be rolling over in his grave!
I DO NOT EVEN WANT TO RATE THE ITEM!!!! A NEGATIVE 10 IS WHAT I GIVE THIS MOROSE PIECE OF HUMILIATION! After watching this movie, I want to cry and then kill myself. There was nothing funny, memorable, or warming about this movie. True Muppet fans will be disappointed and utterly revolted by this film. This was a complete mockery of OUR Muppets and am embarrassed to say I even watched this film. For the record: THE GREEN FAIRY IS NOT JIM HENSON MATERIAL!!! Shame on you for even making this film!!! … Read More

- What did I just watch?
Scooter in leather hot pants gyrating in a cage at a rave, while Sam the Eagle trips out on X and plays with glow sticks. Animal doing a two-story beer bong while lying on his back. A gay dance instructor pig slapping Kermit on the behind and telling him he has a “nice tush”. Pepe the Prawn getting a license to turn the theater into a topless dancing joint…
This is one of the most bizarre things I have ever seen. I would have thought it was someone doing a parody of the Muppets if … Read More
Rating: - When are the Muppets not the Muppets? When they’re in this movie.
The Very Muppet Christmas Movie suffers from “trying too hard” syndrome. It’s as though they tried to make this movie “current”, instead of just letting it be charming because it’s the Muppets.
Some of it works:
* It has some nice star cameos that are well integrated with the Muppets.
* Some of the little physical jokes are classic Muppets.
But a lot of it doesn’t work…
* Dave Goelz and Frank Oz didn’t do their original voices, so a vast majority of the … Read More
