Jim Henson's Muppets always put on a master piece. They've entertained for years and this one is just one of many examples of fine entertainment.
Tim Currys performance was very exceptional and this sort of light hearted entertainment is certainly right up his street. Obviously you have to have a song for him to sing and as always he does not disappoint with his very powerful voice. Cameos from Jennifer Saunders and Billy Connolly were a great added extra for what would have been enjoyable with out them, but they add that extra zest to a classic Muppet film.
As usual the Muppets themselves are witty and they massively putt off being pirates. After Miss Piggys and Kermit's song at the cliff edge, I always laugh myself silly watching Kermit trying to hold onto Miss Piggy as she is about to plummet to her very near death. If you haven't seen it, watch it for the pure comedy gold that is Kermit the Frog trying to hold on to a much larger Miss Piggy.
A very masterful performance!
