★★★☆☆The lights have been lit once more for James Bobin's Muppets Most Wanted (2014), a somewhat lacklustre follow-up to his 2011 comeback hit The Muppets, with Tina Fey and Ricky Gervais replacing Amy Adams and Jason Seigel as the film's human points of interest. In The Muppets, the fuzzy little furballs of fun were introduced to a brand new generation of fans, whilst Bobin also paid homage to the now-greying supporters of yesteryear. This time around, the fun has subsided as Most Wanted battles all the problems that sequels inevitably bring. Expectations being high, the Muppets tackle the issue head-on in opening number We're Doing a Sequel (cue applause).
