A lone Muppet movie in the G's is a treat. Yay! The witty dialogue, sing-along songs, and guest appearances that make the Muppets famous are all alive and well in this classic movie. Wow... this was made the year I was born. It's ooooollllldddd.
Anyway, Kermit and Fozzy play identical twins turned journalists who travel to England to get to the bottom of a jewelry robbery. In a classic case of mistaken identity, they think Miss Piggy is Lady Holliday, a wealthy fashion designer who was robbed. Turns out, her brother is the evil thief. He falls in love with Miss Piggy (cuz, that's what happens, you know?) and the Muppets have to interrupt the heist to save the day.
So not only do the Muppets go international in this movie, but they're solving crimes! What kid from the 80's doesn't love a good Muppet movie, espeically this one?
