Nobody comes to the "Theater of Joy" anymore, and it's on the brink of ruin. The ensemble puppets are up to their neck in hot water. But their impresario has a plan: He wants to kidnap the star and extort the ransom money so he can pay off his bills. But then, Kalle the star – and a cocaine-sniffing polar bear – turns out to be a most difficult captive: perfect chaos ensues. Kalle disappears, and his friends are determined to rescue him from the hands of his kidnappers. (texte officiel du distributeur)

We’ve had foul-mouthed puppets taking drugs behind the scenes before and even in its most celebrated incarnation, Meet the Feebles by pre-Lord of the Rings Peter Jackson, it wasn’t such a devastating farce that went beyond the concept itself. It’s simply not enough that characters usually associated with children’s productions do the same things that the protagonists of adult films do, because the joke gets old very quickly and then it depends on whether the creators can come up with something else, or rather come up with jokes and situations that work independently of who appears in them or, conversely, take into account the bizarreness of the concept. However, there is none of that here. Just a bunch of puppets blathering idiotically, which isn’t the humor of an original comedy movie, but of moronic TV shows.
