Review of TMNT (2007) by Thequietgamer — 28 Aug 2014

A rather dull imagining of the turtles. The action is stale, the humor almost non-existant, and the plot is nothing more than generic sci-fi mumbo jumbo about an immortality curse. The whole thing is just boring. Which is a shame considering there are hints in the movie that it's actually the fourth entry in the original movie series, rather than just some one off thing or a tie-in to that TV show.

There's not enough enjoyable stuff here to make it one that's recommendable for younger audiences. It's moodier tone implies that it's aimed at adult, or at least older, TMNT fans, but the overall laziness of the project will probably turn them off as well. At least the animation is decent (although dated by today's standards). What we get here is a TMNT movie that lacks the qualities that make the series so enjoyable.
