Muppets Most Wanted

After their successful comeback, the Muppets set out on a European tour, performing in major cities across the continent. Their manager arranges the trip, but the group is unaware that Kermit has been replaced by Constantine, a criminal frog who looks almost exactly like him and who has escaped from a Siberian prison. While Constantine uses the tour as cover for a series of jewel heists with his accomplice Dominic, the real Kermit ends up imprisoned far from his friends, who gradually notice that their leader is behaving strangely.

James Bobin directed the film, his second Muppets feature after The Muppets (2011), and wrote the screenplay with Nicholas Stoller. Ricky Gervais plays Dominic, with Ty Burrell as Jean Pierre Napoleon and Tina Fey as Nadya. Steve Whitmire, Eric Jacobson and Dave Goelz are among the performers voicing the Muppet characters. The production had a budget of 50 million US dollars and took about 80 million worldwide. On IMDb it holds a rating of 6.4 from roughly 39,000 votes, while on TMDB it stands at 6.3 from around 915 votes. A critics' rating of 6.7 from 201 reviews places it slightly above the audience scores, suggesting a moderately favorable critical response alongside a more mixed viewer reaction.
