Steve Barron's TMNT; More than a good comic book movie, but a good movie.

Hey all. I pose this question here, but it may color the opinions, heck my own opinion may be a bit biased due to my love of the 1st TMNT movie. The question at hand is: Is the original live action TMNT film more than a great comic book adaptation, but a good movie? I would argue that it is, but again I may be a little biased, but hear me out. I feel there is a subtlety to some of the performances, especially Kevin Clash in the role of Splinter, that makes me believe that TMNT should be taken a little more seriously as a film. I plan to use some video evidence to support this, once I can do so and upload to Youtube.
So look for an update with video very soon, illustrating the fact that TMNT is more than just a simple comic book adaptation film.
