Loved it. As always, a very clever story from Pixar/Disney. The leadup and continuity to the original was always fun to watch.
Highly recommended.
Pros well paced, great story

The cast brings potential. But, it just wasn't produced well. Scattered, odd pacing throughout. Over-the-top, uncessary nudity, etc.
Alan Alda's delivery will NEVER die, Paul and Jennifer did the best they could with the material, just not worth it.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

My wife wanted to see this. Probably from the trailer she saw and the fact that the main boy actor has Asperger's Syndrome (as I and my son do). But, the movie was VERY well done. I enjoyed the characters, the scenery, the cinematography, all top notch. If people just saw more of these movies instead of all the action stuff. This movie makes you think and it makes you feel.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

It was really a great movie. Loved the songs, loved the muppets. Jason Segal and Amy Adams, kind of in the background, always had great scenes/lines. Very well-written movie!
Will definitely see it again!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

As another reviewer said, with all who was involved, you would expect a little more production value. I love Tom Hanks and Nia Vardalos, but the script was a bit weak. Starpower is one thing, you need to have the writing, too.
Just seems like they didn't 'try' very hard.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Liked it overall. Natalie and Ashton worked well together. Supporting cast was great, especially Cary Elwes.
There were some touching, unexpected poiniant moments...
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Just wasn't what I expected. There were funny laugh-out-loud moments, but there were about 3.
Not recommended. Although, Tracy Morgan with almost any expression makes me laugh. :)
No, I do not recommend this movie.
