Featured reviews
I remember this movie well from when I was little--I saw it many times. I can still remember the king screwing up the joke the grand vizier told, and the "sweetums lay your ugly head" song is still memorable. I haven't seen the film in probably 15 years now. Does anyone know where one could get a copy of this classic?
I watched this movie when it first aired on TV. We picked up the LP after the special aired, and we were not able to see the film again :(
However, decades later and I,as an adult, still remember "Ni'm Ineteen, Ni'm Ineteen, by mirthday's do tay..... "
I have to list this as one of my all time favorite Muppet movies, and will search for a digital copy so that I can show my grandchildren the joy of muppet theater.

I highly reccomend this movie. It is not trash it rules. This movie takes out the trash... films like A Man Apart.. Fast and Furious... Gone with the Wind. This film beats them all. Nothing can compare to Sir Robin the brave. No one scene will ever meet the true beauty of Sweetums chasing Kermit and Robbin around singing. Not even the opening scene of Saving Private Ryan will compare to the song Sir Robin the brave. This movie should be in the> Film Hall of Fame.
This was a fantastic special. Jim Henson, and his puppeteering crew did a great job on this humorous take on the fairy tale classic. It also introduces us to Robin Kermit's nephew, and Sweetums (who scared me, and I had nightmares about that muppet for years! No seriosly it's true!) a large full costumed muppet. All in all this was a great special that shouldn't be missed.
I remember seeing this special a long time ago on cable TV and I enjoyed it. I don't remember a lot but it was very entertaining. I especially loved the frogs and the princess who speaks in nonsense. I wouldn't mind watching it again. I wonder if a streaming service has it? Please bring it back?
