Rating: Summary: Thank goodness for online reviews Review: I am so glad that I decided to read the reviews before buying this video. I have seen this movie more time then I can remember. The copy I have right now is taped off of the t.v. from many years ago. When I saw this video on here I was going to buy it right away. After reading the other reviews containing information about editing cuts, I think that I will continue watching my old copy. Commercials are better than missing great parts of the movie. I give this one two stars, and the original, uncut movie five
Rating: Summary: thanks for the info. Review: I appreciated all the reviews by people who have bought this video recently, especially the information regarding the edits of the original. Our problem is, we have taped over the original!! So we have no other options here. My boys (11 and 15) say this is their all-time favorite Christmas movie, so we are buying it anyway (cut or not), and I am just hopeful since it's been so long that we won't notice the editing.
Rating: Summary: Almost made a purchasing mistake Review: I've seen the original of this movie many, many times and my copy is getting old, so I decided to buy a fresh new one. But, after reading the reviews about how it had been cut, I decided NOT to buy it. I will just stick to the old one until an "uncut" version comes out. Thank you to all of you who were honest enough to help me to NOT make a purchasing mistake. I rated this video 3 stars because, whatever is there, is probably entertaining if you did not see the original version.
Rating: Summary: Fun For Christmas Review: If you're after a warm-hearted story which is essentially the Muppets singing Christmas carols around a basic plot then MUPPET FAMILY CHRISTMAS should be on your "To Buy" list.The whole cast are here: the Muppets, the Sesame Street gang and the Fraggles. Several Holiday classics are in this movie, as well as many old carols - the movie culminates in an entertaining sing-a-long with the entire band of Muppets. MUPPET FAMILY CHRISTMAS will please the audience it's aimed at - kids. They'll have great fun watching how the Muppets spend the Yuletide season. Adults however will be able to watch alongside without getting bored: it's the fact that the Muppets are so watchable that reaps benefits for this movie.
Rating: Summary: The best holiday film ever. Review: This film is just what I thought it would be and more. ALL the Muppets spend Christmas with Fozzie's mother, and then EVERY ONE from Seaseme Street shows up, and then EVERY ONE from Fraggle Rock. We even see Doc and his dog Sprocket. And we even see a video of a Christmas past when the Muppets were babies. On top of it all Jim Henson, the creator of them all, apperars briefly. It is a Christmas musical which I absoutly LOVE. This would make a perfect Christmas gift for anyone who likes Jim Henson.
Rating: Summary: A HOLIDAY CLASSIC Review: This is one of the greatest holiday classics of all time! It is sure to become a favorite year after year for the whole family. This video is edited from the original release -NOTE TO HENSON VIDEO: Muppet fans are disappointed with the edits! Please do not continue to edit your classic films! It only leads to disappointment!
Rating: Summary: Why the cuts? Review: I, like many of the other reviewers, have had an ancient copy of this show recorded from TV. When I bought this video I was excited to have a "complete" copy. Imagine my horror that, within the first 15 minutes of the start, the editting had begun! If you have never seen this show before then I think you will love it. BUT, if you have loved and watched the original cut for the last 13 or so years you will be very disappointed.
Rating: Summary: Buyer Beware Review: What is most disappointing about this video are the parts that have been cut. To read the packaging describe the stand-up comedy of Fozzie and the snowman, one would actually think it was included. Sadly, that and other highly entertaining clips are just that 'clipped.'
Rating: Summary: have to buy it! Review: since it came out, we've made a family tradition to watch this movie every single christmas. it's great- a holiday classic, and one of our all time favorite movies. every child should see it!
