Review:

If you’re going to have a movie about a talking man-eating plant, and if you’re going to use puppetry to make it come alive, then there’s no one better than Frank Oz to bring the whole thing together. Fun and humorous, and with a ton of special guests, it’s a movie that hits above its weight class. But man, what an ending!
