Review of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014) by Tvjerry — 11 Aug 2014
This is a frenzied, confused mess that starts with the emergence of the titular turtles (couldn't resist) as they rise out of the gutters to save NYC from Shredder and his Foot Clan. Their human allies are Megan Fox and Will Arnett.
It goes without saying that the plotting is plodding. The story gets off to a slow start, but once it gets rolling, there's plenty of action…most of its jumbled and unimaginative. Arnett has a few funny moments, but the Turtles' wise cracks fall flat.
Kids might enjoy it (although they'll be frustrated by the subtitles), but grownups looking to re-live their childhood fascination will find themselves yearning for their younger days (and their money back).
