Amazing. Anyone upset that they can’t take their kids should’ve read the title and watched the trailer.

The movie was hilarious. It's mindless fun. It was money well spent. I'd see it again if I had the time. I'm definitely getting the digital HD release.

#NoJudgement All kids mature differently, with that being said I took my 10yr old to see it and we laughed like hell- it was actually his choice for what he wanted to do for his birthday.

I was really bored, and all the funny bits were in the trailer.

So...um...that happened. It's a great concept but poorly, poorly executed. The script relies on vulgar dialogue and sex jokes. Some moments were truly funny but most of it was just...not. Not a family friendly flick AT ALL. The visual effects are cool, I mean how they…

Not so bad for a muppets movie. Good job with the drama and special effects but just not there to watch on the movie theaters.

Watch the trailer before you go. Don't take your kids!!! Enjoy it for what it is. A raunchy in your face comedy that is for adults only. Thank you for making this movie your hard work is appreciated.

it's ok.. nothing to go rush out and must see. thought it would be raunchier and gut busting as thebtrailers lead me to believe. when it comes to ruining childhood memories.. i think sausage party did a much bettee job by taking a kid element and turning it into an adult…

Your paying to watch a movie with puppets. That’s exactly what your getting. Many funny moments. Enough to keep me entertained.

It’s the execution that lets this dog down. Not enough funny lines and even the cheap, dirty laughs are in short supply.

It’d be an intriguing premise — if, again, it weren’t so nearly identical to Roger Rabbit, right down to the inevitable frame job. Also, if The Happytime Murders had taken a few more cues from that film and focused less on the rote whodunit and more on the funhouse-mirror L.A. where it takes place.

Stuffed full of rampant badness, the scattershot comedy isn’t nearly as clever or subversive as it thinks it is.
