Review of It's a Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie (2002) by Joel P — 26 Dec 2012
I'm okay with pop culture references if done right. The ones in this movie seem very forced. The Scrubs and Fear Factor scenes were unneeded and could easily have been rewritten without shameless advertising.
The problem I have with this movie though is the adult humour. Yes, there was adult humour in the Muppets in the past but it was smart humour or subtle in it's presentation but the stripper references and club scenes are just not what I would expect to see in a kids film and the multiple reference to Bitterman's "hotness" just don't sit well for me in a Muppet movie.
