For more than 35 years, Kermit The Frog, Miss Piggy and their fun-loving friends have been firmly engrained in our rose-tinted childhood memories with their slapstick routines and song and dance numbers.

Director James Bobin expertly taps into that nostalgia with The Muppets, a glorious throwback to the days of yore.

The Muppets is a perfect family film with broad humour to appeal to all ages, interspersed with delightful ditties written by Bret McKenzie from Flight Of The Conchords.
