4 stars out of 5 -- [T]here are plenty of laughs and a host of memorable songs crooned by everyone from Miss Piggy to Statler and Waldorf.

There may be some people who can watch Kermit the Frog's nephew Robin give his heart-wrenching performance as Tiny Tim in The Muppet Christmas Carol without choking up. I am not among them.

The nervy bookkeeping rats in Scrooge's office are a joy, but Statler and Waldorf (Jerry Nelson and Goelz) as the chain-swinging ghosts Jacob and Robert Marley are, as ever, peerless.

There's lots to love here, particularly Michael Caine's deadly straight take on Scrooge.

...A lot of fun. The sets are detailed and charming...
Sight and Sound
Rating: 4/5 --
A remarkably faithful adaptation with a classy straight man and a dark side. Plus jokes galore -- whoever felt it was appropriate to use Rizzo as a pair of bellows to get the fire going deserves an extra helping of plum pudding.

Caution Spoilers
The Muppets are at their best when they're anarchic, without all this soggy whimsy.

With Kermit as the dutiful Bob Cratchit and Miss Piggy as his feisty wife, the Muppets do Dickens with Michael Caine as the miserly Scrooge. The songs in this musical version were penned by Paul Williams.
