The Happytime Murders


No Sesame. All Street. The Happytime Murders is a filthy comedy set in the seedy underbelly of Los Angeles where puppets and humans coexist. Two clashing detectives with a shared secret, one human (Melissa McCarthy) and one puppet, are forced to work together again to solve the brutal murders of the former cast of a beloved classic puppet television show.

Honestly, this was a very stupid movie.  That being said - there were enough aight gags and laughs that I was more than able to enjoy it even though it was so stupid.  Melissa McCarthy mixed in with the completely vulgar muppet stuff killed me at times.  I definitely expected it to be worse than it was so that might have helped it but the laughs were worth it and the movie was kept to a short running time.

Would I recommend this based on it being a great movie?  Absolutely not.  Were there enough laughs in 90 minutes though to watch it?  Absolutely yes.
