We didn't need a weird Kermit origin story any way, but this is worse than you would even think.

Kermit and friends reminisce about his first foray out of the swamp, when his frog friends are taken by a pet shop owner who is selling frogs to the local maniacal biology teacher for dissecting. It's up to Kermit and his friends to save them.
Not exactly up to the usual muppet standards of comedy, but still a pretty good little family flick.

Tonight's Viewing: "Kermit's Swamp Years". A Direct-To-Video Buddy Comedy-Drama & Road Adventure Prequel To "The Muppet Movie" (1979), It's Basically A Story About Kermit The Frog's Childhood Life In The Swamp. One Day, 2 Of Kermit's Friends, Goggles The Toad & Blotch The Bullfrog Get Frog-Napped By A Pet Store Owner, Who Gives Them To A Crazy High School Biology Teacher For Dissection. So Kermit & His Froggie Friend Croaker Leave Their Boggy Home & Set Out With The Company Of A New Friend, A Stray Dog Named Pilgrim (Voiced By Character Actress Cree Summers; Suzie Carmichael In Nickelodeon's "Rugrats"/Penny In The 1980s Animated TV Show "Inspector Gadget"), To Save The Other 2 Amphibians.
Now 1st Off, It's Based On The Muppets. I Love The Muppets, I Mean, Who Doesn't? Yet As The Execution Of It All Is, It's Basically A 'We Gotta Save Our Friends!' Type Of Kids' Movie. The Puppetry, Or 'Muppet-try', Is Fantastic As Usual, The Story Is Basic & Harmless, The Songs Are Okay But Forgettable, & There Are Some Legit Funny Jokes & Moments, Etc. But The 'Follow-My-Star' Element Is Pointlessly Clichéd As A Morale Of Any Type, & It Really Isn't Until Near The Climax With The Mad Biology Teacher When Things Seem Ridiculously Weird. Speaking Of Which, I'm Sure He Was A Good Actor. But His Performance In This Muppet Movie Is So Over-The-Top But It's So Unneeded. I'm Sorry But His Acting Is Bad Here. I Mean, COM'ON! It's Like The Case With Paul Freeman As Ivan Ooze In "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie" (1995); He Acts Like He's Someone Like Christopher Lloyd, & He's NOT Christopher Lloyd.
Anyway, Even Though Things Get Weird & Weak By The Climax & There Are Some Things That Could Raise Questions From A Review Standpoint Of Some Sort, "Kermit's Swamp Years" Is Not Doing Any Wrong. It's What You'd Expect It To Be: Just A Popcorn Family Film/Kids' Film. Not Much To Say Really? It's Okay To Give It A Viewing.
