I raise my eyebrow at April fighting the many Foot ninjas actually, I think that was a little too... weird. So her fighting Karai and getting away with it doesn't bug me as much as that one.
As for Leo, well, he is teh ninja master. I have to admit I was disappointed how short it was, but I guess fighting a ninja turtle isn't one of Karai's objectives. So it's not about Karai being weak. As said the Foot Clan needs to get some tweaking in the action scenes, as they are...stunted, for lack of a better term (this is why I didn't like the "storming into the building scene" I felt like the Foot are these moving dummies the Turtles have to kick at, which always happens in all their incarnations, with or without the Shredder, which I hope that should change a bit in the movie). They're not even the solid antagonists in this movie, but you can see Munroe is trying to make them at least badass.

Karai is a great ninja. My opinion, April got lucky. Had the spar lasted longer, I fear Karai would have scewered poor April.

I think you cleared things up for me Neutrino and I agree with your points about Winters and also Leo who have been training. I think I can live with April got lucky, well maybe.:p I want to see in the sequeal Karai kicks April's ass real hard! That oughta show her not to wear anything yellow and bright being a ninja lol. She can still wear yellow in my opinion but that suit in the movie doesn't fit in really. I kinda miss her yellow reporter outfit.

Hah. I don't know ANY of these people.
Nearly 15 years later, we can ascertain two things for sure: 1. People oversold the crap out of TMNT 2007, which in retrospect was merely "okay". 2. I wanna beat the crap out of the guy who didn't like the "Sin City" movie. Godless f*cking heathens.

I can't remember what Peter Laird thought of it. Did he have any approval over the story?
