Hmmmm....more Intrigued by Megan Fox's single face acting than anything else.

One of the worst movies I've ever had the misfortune to watch.

Great movie in my opinion, brought back childhood memories. Animation was better than I expected; very enjoyable overall. 8/10

I should've known. Nostalgy is an ill advisor. But the TMNT were always one of those cartoons that I looked forward to as a child. I liked the atmosphere of superheroes that weren't actually superheroes but turtles with names of Renaissance artists (something I didn't knew then, of course). It was exotic and appealed to my imagination. The inner child in me convinced me to watch this real-live action film and remake. You never know, right? This was even worse than I expected. Maybe it's because Nickelodeon Movies and Platinum Dunes were the main producers, but it's not only that. The writing was awful, the action choreography way too conventional and the special effects not that impressive. I wonder if I would've enjoyed this as a child in the way that I enjoyed 3 Ninjas, 3 Ninjas Kick Back and 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up. That question will remain unanswered and it isn't even that relevant. Fact is this movie was utter crap with nothing whatsoever for adults or nostalgists to enjoy...

Not even nostalgia is going to save this train wreck.

Dire... Michael Bay + CGI characters = utter crap. Michael, effects do not characters make!

You can argue as much as you want, that the turtles never were to be taken too seriously (at least the movie adaptations and the cartoon series) or that this was created for new and/or younger viewers. I thought this movie to be one of the worst i've seen in a long long time.
A horrible origin story that destroys any possible emotional bonding you might be having with the turtles fighting the shredder and actors that could not have been casted worse.
Yeah, the 1990s movie probably is cheesy and lots of folks loving it for the sake of good memories. But then again you can feel that someone sat there and actually put a lot of heart in it, the fighting scenes were great, the turtles costumes look still awesome to this date imho.
I don't want to discuss the impact that all this cgi-crap nowadays have on films, but thats still the biggest flaw for me. Nothing real, dull actors and a huge waste of time.
Still i know that the actual target audience might just like most of it, but they did no favor at all for anyone who grew up loving these heroes in a halfshell.

With a movie like this I think a list of grievances makes for a better review.

1. Mr. Bay thinks that Megan Fox is so attractive that you'll be so focused on her looks that you'll totally forget that she can't act or recite her lines convincingly. The movie would have probably been much improved by a different casting of April.

2. The fabled Foot clan is just a bunch of thugs with masks and guns. Maybe it isn't a huge deal but most incarnations of the clan at least gave the impression that they were also trained in the arts of Ninjitsu.

3. The turtle's CGI is rather ugly and their personalities even uglier. Each of the turtles gets maybe one personality trait that they are known for and that is as far as the character development goes throughout the film. Making Michelangelo horny for Megan Fox throughout the whole film was especially cringe worthy.

4. Making Shredder a ninja Megatron was classic Michael Bay. The character and his ridiculous armor complete with magnetic knives is a testament to how lazy M. Bay can be. It was the easiest thing to write off Shredder as nothing more than a Japanese flavored Decepticon rather than an actual villain.

So the turtles are back to movies, but this time they are all made by CGI, I don't have a big complaint about that, they look ok, Raphael was the ugliest of them all for sure, Splinter was..., is complicated to make Splinter look good, Shredder looks like a transformer with swiss-knives as weapons.
The personality of the turtles was well executed, they stay loyal to themselves, the humans not so.
If this movie had a better casting choice for April O´neil, maybe it would be taken more seriously, it is need it a strongest human character that works as a link between the turtles and the human world.
I enjoyed the movie because of the nostalgia of seeing the TMNT on screen, but if you don´t like them, then skip this one.
3.25/5
