Muppets from Space Movie Review 1999

The sixth full-length movie featuring Jim Henson's uberpuppets centers on Gonzo and his search for his real family. He discovers that he is an alien from a distant planet and announces his findings on Miss Piggy's talk show. Soon, government bad guy K. Edgar Singer (Tambor) is after him. After escaping Singer, Gonzo must decide whether to stay on earth with his friends or leave on the family spaceship. Features cameos by Ray Liotta, F. Murray Abraham, Andie MacDowell, and Hulk Hogan. Perfect for the sippy-cup set.
