The excitement here for me is for the animation - instead of the cheery, stylized Pixar animation, we're treated to another sort of brilliance - this time in dark, moody street level lighting with some fantastic rain effects thrown in. If the story/humor was up just a notch, it would have been perfect - but instead still sits in a solid, entertaining place like a couple of back-to-back Saturday morning cartoons on steroids. B+

I loved this movie as well ... and I like that it continues the story from the previous three installments - however indirectly. Nice foreshadowing of a return of Shredder at the end. The animation absolutely blew me away. I actually saw it in the theatres ... I took nine middle school boys and we all made masks to wear like the Turtles (I had a red one). I think the theatre staff were scared of what was going to happen when nine boys get hopped up on a TMNT flick ...
It's not pretty. - At 8/10/2007, MJ said...

i saw this three times in theaters and bought the DVD today, i grew up on the cartoons (they were and still are my all time favorites) and so when i found out a new CG film was being made i started counting down the days. it did not disappoint! this week for our Jr. Highers we are doing a movie night (with a quiz at the end) using this movie, hopefully they have as much fun with it as i did!
