Whenever the amphibians are in action, the film finds a rhythm that mixes punk graphic cool and merch-friendly visuals.September 21, 2010
The characters were no longer constrained by rubber suits or the laws of physics.March 31, 2007
What remains is intensely numbing action scenes, poor plot machinations and joyless character sketches all rendered in exquisitely cold CGI.July 23, 2008
The strongest ingredient remains the four reptiles' incorrigible charm, which easily outclasses a muddled storyline and concessions to the prepubescent male audience.March 23, 2007
It takes more than an awkward title attempting to sound cool to overcome its mundane plot and silly dialogue.March 31, 2007
A passable brand rebooting exercise that will impress younger kids even if it doesn't satisfy older fans.March 23, 2007
Worst of all is the lack of genuine laughs. Writer-director Kevin Munroe has apparently forgotten that the Ninja Turtle phenomenon started as rib-nudging parody.March 26, 2007
I guess if you read the comic strip and you played the video games and you watched the TV show and dug the earlier movies, you'll dig this new version. For me, I didn't do any of that stuff.March 21, 2011
Almost every good scene in TMNT is an action sequence and a lot of time and thought has been put into them. So much in fact that none seems to have been spared for the story or any of the other characters.July 15, 2008
This mediocre computer-generated action flick is packed full of monsters and sword-fights, but the story-telling is about as deft as a turtle turned on its back, struggling to get up but going nowhere fast.April 05, 2007
...while the visuals are terrific, the plot is a distracting clunker that feels like it was written one line at a time by a bunch of overexcited fan-board commentators playing a round-robin storytelling game.April 23, 2009
The plot's all over the place, but director Kevin Munroe keeps it at a hare's pace. The sharp graphics impress too. It's nothing to cow about, but it does, more or less, fill its shell.
