The Great Muppet Caper : 2 of 5

I'm continuing with the Muppet movies, which means I recently watched this second film on DVD. It was a fun movie, but I have it say that the first movie was much better. The negatives for me were the lack of star cameos, and the music wasn't as good (though the opening song is pretty catchy), plus some of the effects were lacking - they had to stoop to the "person wearing a Muppet suit" level. Still, there are some great moments. How do you top Kermit riding a bike from the first movie? You start with Kermit and Miss Piggy both riding bikes, and then in the next scene every freakin' Muppet, even the Swedish Chef, is on a bike! I also liked the clever and funny ways they hide the Muppet's feet, like a pair of top hats strategically placed when Miss Piggy does her tap dance. I missed the emotional stuff from the first movie, too, but that won't stop me from watching the rest of the Muppet movies, of course!
