The non proper battles are among the things that bring it down imo. No nunchucks but Mikey fight with sausages? Really. Shredder does nothing and he's so cringy: "First them... then you" lmao so cheesy and not threatening. And Keno is just pointless and terrible acting (but I'm sure he's a nice guy in real life). I'd rather re-watch any other tmnt movies than Soto tbh.

there were a few things about the movie i did enjoy, but overall i was REEEEEEALLY disappointed!!!

the abandoning of ninja weapons to use hot dogs and yo-yo's was pure sacrilege!!!

i found Keno just as annoying as that Danny kid from the first movie.

Not sure if it's like that in other countries.
We have people like that over here too. They are every where...

Spoiler:
First act was meh
Second act was good
final act was ****** as the first film.

The purple ooze plotline was easily the best part of the film.

The technodrome pieces part sucked ass

Turtles vs Beebop and Rocksteady was pretty ****, not deserving of the hype.

Shredder plotline resolve was ****.

I believe I saw a triceraton.

I agree, best Leo so far for me. Glad Knoxville was gone. I really loved the whole movie, but that was the worst Casey ever. I hate to say this, but I think even the Nick Casey was better. I wish they'd get rid of Megan as April, but it's not about her really. It's the turtles I go to see and they did not disappoint. The scene with them putting each other down on the airplane was sad and Raph taking on a mission with Mikey was awesome. I love those two together. Donnie was my favorite version of him yet. Glad to see they all got equal screen time this time.

I love April, she's amazing and very spy-like. Kinda reminds me of Black Widow without the martial arts. Casey is fine too tbh, his dynamic with the other cast is fine. The turtles are great and yes I'm so glad Pete got to voice Leo this time (as it should be! My God, why even Knoxville for the first one? He sounded like a 50 years old chain smoker)

Midnight Screening review with Cinema Snob Brad Jones and Allison Pregler.

Spoiler alert: They f*cking hated it.

As an aside, Allison's laugh is magical.

Eh, they say in this video Phelous would hate it, and he actually enjoyed it, even when he spent most of his own review picking it apart (which I agreed with, despite liking this one)

Speaking of magical, who wants to watch 10 Inch Mutant Ninja Turtles with me?

It's got a much more accurate Casey Jones in it!



And an April O'Neil who is an ACTUAL adult film star and not just one who pretends to be!

I'm just saying I agree with it. To be honest, quite a lot of the people here giving this abomination of a movie praise will probably turn around and agree with me in like two or three months.

Even Casey Jones the Full Movie had a decent Casey Jones in it.
Still a fan of this dude too.

better than the first imo.. they did take some liberties here and there but then again so does many other comic book-based movies. my kids liked the first one better than this one but there was a lot of nostalgia in this flick from back in my day so i did enjoy this one more. i still think this series of the turtles could use some improvement here and there but overall pretty solid. much more tmnt onscreen this time, thank God

that was one of my biggest gripes with the first film.

i just wonder if they'll ever figure out a way to include Hamato Yoshi in their story or if he just doesn't exist in this story?

it would be pretty cool if they could figure out a way to somehow work in the reincarnation angle from the IDW comics.
