Ditching the cheeky, self-aware wink that helped to excuse the concept's inherent corniness,
the
movie
attempts
to look polished and 'cool,' but the been-there animation can't compete with the
then-cutting-edge
puppetry
of
the 1990 live-action movie.

The turtles themselves may look prettier, but are no smarter; torn irreparably from their
countercultural
roots,
our superheroes on the half shell have been firmly co-opted by the industry their creators
once
sought
to
spoof.

TMNT is a fun, action-filled adventure that will satisfy longtime fans and generate a legion
of new
ones.

Impersonally animated and arbitrarily plotted, the story appears to have been made up as the
filmmakers
went
along.

It stinks!

The striking use of image and motion allows each sequence to leave an impression. It's an
accomplished
restart to
this franchise.

The rubber suits are gone and they've been redone with fancy computer technology, but that
hasn't
stopped
them
from becoming dull.

The script feels like it was computer generated. This mechanical presentation lacks the
cheesy charm
of
the
three
live action films.
