There isn’t a lot coming out this final full weekend of August, so the biggest hopes will hang on the R-rated puppet movie The Happytime Murders, which wants to be the breakout hit of the summer. Starring Melissa McCarthy in a world of Muppets beyond the happy-go-lucky word of Kermit and Company, this film hopes to pull back the seedy curtain and show the audience something they never thought they’d see: a raunchy Muppet movie. Of course, these aren’t officially “The Muppets,” but the implication is there and that may just be enough to draw a wide swath of curious audiences.
