Ahoy, matey! Get ready for hilarity on the high seas with Kermit the Frog, Miss Piggy, and all the Muppets in this exciting first-ever action-adventure, inspired by Robert Louis Stevenson's classic pirate tale. When young Jim Hawkins inherits a long-lost treasure map, he hires the great ship Hispaniola to seek his fortune. With the good Captain Smollett (Kermit the Frog) at the helm -- and greedy Long John Silver (Tim Curry) at the heart of a dastardly plot -- they set sail for adventure only to discover danger at every turn! Featuring a rollicking score by Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer, MUPPET TREASURE ISLAND is a fun-packed, music-filled swashbuckler the entire family will enjoy over and over.

Critics Consensus: Though less Muppet-centric than the original trilogy, Muppet Treasure Island is an energetic, cheerful take on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic adventure, with typically solid gags.

Yet another diverting throwback to these icons of the 1970s and a reassuring assertion that they will be with us for at least another generation.

Rotten

While not the worst Muppet feature ever committed to screen, it is arguably the weakest entry of the original six.

It manages to touch on all the beats of Treasure Island that are necessary while still being really funny and having good songs.

The changes made to source material feel so natural here; Gonzo and Rizzo are an integral part of the plot (...) it's hard to imagine how the story would function without them
