- Critics' reviews
-
-
"At its best, TMNT does recall the slangy fun of the series' glory days. But there are too many moments when it feels as stale as one of Mikey's half-eaten pizzas."
-
"'TMNT' has a cool, noirish sheen. There's an attention to detail in the visuals and sound design that pushes it up several notches above most kiddie fare. It's not art, dude, but it will do."
-
"CGI delivers best on moody sets and a noirish atmosphere achieved by lighting, backgrounds and visual effects. But the characters look like plastic dolls, and the story is recycled sci-fi."
-
"Munroe's script denies fans the satisfaction of a decent story or amusing interactions. Rather than waiting for a screenplay that warranted their bigscreen return, TMNT feels like an attempt to exploit the phenomenon further."
-
"The upshot is that the film is technically superb and quite enjoyable as long as you don't bang your head against the plot."
-
"It takes more than an awkward title attempting to sound cool to overcome its mundane plot and silly dialogue."
-
"Fans should be satisfied, but it's hard to imagine anyone else will be much interested in TMNT."
