Why so much hype?
Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .
A different way of telling a story
What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
The turtles find themselves transported back in time to ancient Japan. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III or also known as TMNT III is the 3rd and final installment of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Trilogy. The story of this film i will admit was a bit silly and the turtle costumes do look pretty weird but the TMNT movies were never meant to turn into some kind of Dark Knight or Godfather it was always silly fun with grown men dressed like Turtles and fightning ninjas i mean that's about it. This film has alot of adventure, crazy action and one liners that kids will definitely enjoy and if people won't take them serious enough are quite the enjoyment to be had trust me. (A+)
The turtle animatronics look more creepy than the last two movies, the fight scenes are a joke, the writing is stupid, and the one liners are crappy. How can anyone try to take this film seriously? It makes no possible scenes whatsoever and was just an excuse for the turtles to not only dress up like samurai warriors, but to give tired, flat jokes to make people laugh. Trust me, the film is that bad.
It actually got worse! After the abominable part 2, I didn't think the series could sink any lower. Boy was I wrong. Know what stinks worse than doo-doo? Doo-doo that's been sent back in time! That's what happens in this terrible movie. The Turtles go back in time to feudal Japan and fight samurais. The costumes and special effects are cheap. Jim Henson's Creature Shop wisely had nothing to do with this movie. Poor Splinter gets the worst of it. He looks like a ragged stray dog. And that voice! Awful. The script isn't good enough to be used as toilet paper. The acting is embarrassing. Just a stinker of a movie on every level. For the brain dead among us only.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III is a great kids Title. If the other two movies were dark than this one was most certainly light and I am glad. If they were to change the Turtles movies they would have done it in Secret Of The Ooze. That Title all be it an entertaining watch was still dark like the epic original movie.I cannot be unbiased when it comes to the Turtles movies. I grew up watching it and I loved seeing the departure of the Turtles from the traditional gritty feel of the other two. To have the Turtles out in the open, seeing a less aggressive Raphael. Having Michaelangelo going missing instead was a nice change.This movie also did a lot more with Leonardo, Donatello, Casey Jones, April O' Neill and Splinter. The absence of a strong Villain meant they story could focus on the Turtles. The enemies were forgettable but you watch the movie to see Turtles in a half shell taking on a bunch of Feudal warriors.
