I honestly don't think I've ever loved a Melissa McCarthy led comedy, but I did dare to dream when it came to an R-rated Muppets movie. But when The Happytime Murders came to tread on my dreams, it did not tread softly.
Final rating:★½: - Boring/disappointing. Avoid where possible.

Puppet stories. Why do they have to be over the top? But I get it, it's not the puppets, it's the humans.
Pretty much standard plots, standard characters combined; but that's kind of the point. The same thing, but more gross - and more honest. About "more funny", it wasn't my taste. But hey, different tastes. Some will have laugh themselves silly.
I haven't heard of Melissa McCarthy before; but it appears this kind of humour is right up her, err, alley; and if you share it, then up yours, too.
(yes, that type of humour.)
