Growing up, I can't remember anything better than waking up on
Saturday morning to watch cartoons. Out of all the cartoons on the
morning line up TMNT was priority one. So, logically when movie
number one hit the box office I dragged my mom to theater to stand
in line. What an awesome experiance.
Now that Mikey is all growns up (in age, not heart), I can watch
these movies and remember all the times I spent emulating the fight
scenes and every now and then sending my friends home with bloody
lips. On to the reviews......
TMNT #1: A+ Great flick. Even now, I cant think of a movie that so
closely resembles its other medium. Turtles costumes looked
authentic, but Shredder is by far the best dressed. Great story,
even though the love scene with Casey and April could have been cut
with no tears. The one thing that bugged me more than anything was
the origin of Splinter. It was more believable in the cartoon,
WHY?!?
TMNT #2 Secret of the Ooze: A- Good flick. Didnt like this April as
much, but liked the Turtle costumes better. Shredder still best
dressed. Toka and Raza, could have been a little more menacing. But
the movie more than makes up for it with Super Shredder, and Vanilla
Ice's best song of his career "Ninja Rap". Still a solid story.
TMNT #3: B+ Good flick. I was a little older when I saw this one so
my opinion probably would have been better. But never-the-less the
story was decent with what material they had left to keep it fresh.
Old April is back with flying colors. My least favorite of the three
but had the most heart. Raphael coming out of his "shell", pun
intended.
So all in all, if your in mid 20's like me, this is a must buy
collection, you will look back 30 years from now and feel like a kid
again. And at the price you cant beat it. COWABUNGA!!
For all you Raphael fans out there, suck it. Leonardo RULES!!
