Careful guys. You're sounding way too defensive. If someone didn't like it that's fine. I saw it and would only give it like a C. I still love the turtles, and it was great seeing them on the big screen, but if you thought this was going to be a hit with the critics you were deluding yourselves. It was really cheesey, but the name sort of implies that, or at least it used to. I don't think they ever say Teenage or Mutant in the movie. I thought the name was a great part of the turtles, i only abbreviate because I'm lazy, but for the movie I think they should have kept it spelled out. I think the CG made it pretty obvious that it wasn't going to be the same as the first film and that this would be a new thing mostly for little kids. Anyway enough of that tangent.
I disagree with a lot of the review but agree with others. The animation models themselves didn't give much to work with, I really REALLY hate that April. I remember the cover from the beginning of the original comics, with April and the guys standing around, then think of the movie April and really wonder where it went wrong. A lot the characters seemed more like charicatures of their old selves. Even though Pete was involved, if you're expecting anything like the mirage comics... DON'T. Go in expecting Turtles meets Power Rangers and your expectations won't be lowered like mine were.
