The Muppet characters tell their version of the classic tale of an old and bitter miser's redemption on Christmas Eve. Ready to laugh, cry, sing, frolic, cavort and enjoy yourself beyond belief!?

Although the Muppets pile on the wit and child-friendly slapstick, they never dumb down, and never compromise their story's literary origins.

This is the dullest and least successful adaptation of the Christmas chestnut I've ever seen.

Good fun.

The fit between sentiment and satire is not always a comfortable one and the more dedicated fans of either the story or the Muppets may leave theaters dissatisfied.

There's no great show of wit or tunefulness here, and the ingenious cross-generational touches are fairly rare. But there is a lively kiddie version of the Dickens tale, one that very young viewers ought to understand.

Director Brian Henson should have left brand expectations out of it and simply carried on in the vein of his father's excursions into fantasy.

There are plenty of laughs and a host of memorable songs crooned by everyone from Miss Piggy to Statler and Waldorf.

The late Jim Henson would have been proud of the job that his son did directing this production. It's a solid Muppets feature. Call it "The Muppets Take Dickensian London."

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

A gentle, fuzzy version of the Dickens classic.

Nothing can really diminish the late Jim Henson's irresistibly appealing characters.

Neither drama nor comedy, it's safe stuff, and most un-Muppetlike. So much for great expectations.
