Stylistically and also in plot it had almost nothing to do with the Fred Wolf cartoon. You can't put elements of the 80s series into a movie and call it a faithful homage or a direct adaptation. That's just sounds stupid.

If this movie is Fred wolf, where is the forth wall breaking? The self-referential humor? The comedic shredder? The shredder/Krang/Rocksteady bebop dysfunctional family? why is Raph a tough guy like all modern versions, instead of the sarcastic Rob Paulsen-style snarker? Why is Splinter a Rat who learned Ninjitsu from a book instead of a mutated Hamato Yoshi? Why isn't Casey Jones a dirty harry- styled nutjob who never takes his mask off? Why are the turtles friends with the cops? Why can't I remember Laura Linney's character from the cartoon?
It has some elements in common with the OT, but Out of the shadows is definitely not the OT.
