Muppets From Space (1999) *
Directed by Tim Hill. With Kermit, Miss Piggy and Gonzo. It turns out Gonzo is really a space alien, left accidently on Earth by his family. And now his folks are back desperately looking for him. A puppet/Muppet version of Close Encounters Of The Third Kind. Younger kids might like it, but adults beware. Katie Holmes, Andie McDowell and Ray Liotta make brief and totally unmemorable cameo appearances.
