Disney’s “The Muppets: Most Wanted” offers an equally as cringe-inducing, cheesy and forcefully unamusing sequel to their first failed attempt, “The Muppet Movie.”

When Kermit and the gang agree to embark on a world tour, a strange turn of events lands Kermit in a high security Russian prison in place of his doppelganger, who happens to be a world renowned international criminal. As to be expected, the rest of the Muppets eventually come to Kermit’s rescue and save the day, while also learning some key life lessons along the way, such as the importance of a decent publicist who knows how to pay off the tabloids.

It features an excessive amount of musical numbers including one performed by none other than Ricky Gervais, who compromised any remaining shred of dignity by starring as the lead role among his co-stars, all of whom are puppets. The parents staring absentmindedly at the big screen, eyes glazed over in an attempt to amuse their perpetually dissatisfied children may find some enjoyment in the subtle humor. The script, in all its embarrassment, could in fact be worse, and does offer the occasional chuckle. The other lead role is played by Tina Fey, who succeeds in bringing the only source of enjoyment in the 90-minute film.

If what you’re looking for is a fun, light-hearted, sad excuse of a comedy, see this movie.
