I think I may be one of the few people that actually liked the first Ninja Turtles movie.It was silly, sure, but what did you expect a movie about four anthropomorphic turtles to be like? Come the sequel, and now it was just pure absurdity.I think I may be one of the few people that actually liked the first Ninja Turtles movie.It was silly, sure, but what did you expect a movie about four anthropomorphic turtles to be like? Come the sequel, and now it was just pure absurdity.

I was actually looking forward to this movie for the inclusion of Bebop, Rocksteady, Krang, and Casey Jones, yet at the end of the day, none of them hit any kind of mark with me. Every time one of them opened their mouths, they always had something stupid to say that sounds worse than the most childish cartoon you can think of (ironic considering I'm a young adult and Krang honestly made me want to puke). Every time they spoke, I had to bite my lip to keep myself from screaming at them to shut up, and you know you've done something wrong when Megan Fox isn't the most annoying person in your movie. Even the action sequences while entertaining felt utterly pointless since I didn't give a damn about what was going on. Literally the only things that didn't suck about this movie were the turtles themselves and the end credits song.

Supposedly there's a third film in the works, and honestly, I'm not going to let myself get suckered in again. If it turns out to be anything like this one, it'll be the biggest waste of time and effort in the past decade.… Expand

You got that right. It's no wonder Michael Bay is still ruining our precious turtles like what he did with our Transformers. It may or may not be better than the first one, but it still failed when you talk about Michael Bay and his clichéd explosions. Now that you think about it, Megan Fox is starting to become even creepier in Michael Bay's clichéd films and yes, I've seen the trailer and there's explosions in this movie, I can guarantee you that it'll be more than 25 explosions in this film and if not, then correct me.… Expand

First, the CGI. The turtles were great, but all the new animation was terrible. In the very first scene you get to see Rocksteady and Bebop, Rocksteady looks like claymation. It is that bad. Not only that but all the scenes with the Krang look like PS3 gameplay from Fallout 3. Yeah, gameplay from a $250 console. WTF.

The writing was pretty bad too. It's almost like the movie was hijacked or simply the product of warring screen-writers. Needlessly there are two villains; it is forced. And awful.

Don't even rent this. Just pretend it doesn't exist. Put it in that place you keep Highlander 2 and Terminator 3. Maybe the next one will be better.… Expand

I'm a huge fan of TMNT cartoon from the 80s. This film is total garbage! Michael Bay is new Uwe Boll! From the trailer I thought this film will be better than the first but it turned out that it was misbelief.

Things happen just to forward the plot (thank god the good guys get handed a GPS with the location of the person they were looking for!) or get mentioned once and never again (the Turtles wanna be human? Oh wait, now they don't? Lol ok). Look, it's awful, I was squirming in my seat most of the runtime.… Expand

I understand the target audience is for small kids and for current generation of fans for TMNT that being said however, This film was a slap in the face of old fans. The first film grew on me and I eventully like it even with its problems.I understand the target audience is for small kids and for current generation of fans for TMNT that being said however, This film was a slap in the face of old fans. The first film grew on me and I eventully like it even with its problems. This one is just mess, plot holes that even a small kid will notice. Source material was glanced at at best. The saw a picture of Krang and the Technodrome and said alright lets make him super annoying and nothing like the show at all. Also they don't explain where he comes from in the least just like they threw it in there to try and get us older fans to go see it and it did for me and I was severely disappointed. Never thought I'd say this but Donney was WAY to smart, he figured out the plot almost faster then the villains knew what was going on. This movie was a flop and a waste of money, don't even see it for free on TV in several years, not worth your time. Trailer was extremely misleading.

I love Casey Jones as a character and Stephen Amell as an actor but it was an absolutely wrong casting choice and writing was just horrible. 95% of his scenes are in the trailer and he WAS NOT A COP, how do you mess that up!?… Expand

The film contains the same tacked-on humor, lame CGI that looks like it was from a 20 year old Pixar film, and characters that could not be more one-dimensional if the screenwriters tried. We see the four turtles return once again, Leonardo (Pete Ploszek), Raphael (Alan Ritchson), Donatello (Jeremy Howard) and Michelangelo (Noel Fisher) seem to be shocked to discover at how much credit that Vern (Will Arnett) is taking after taking down the Shredder in the previous battle. Since they have to remain unseen to the public, some of them find it hard to cope with saving the world and not being rewarded for it. All the public would do is shut them out for looking like hideous monsters even though they mean no harm. April O'Neil (Megan Fox) is also back, and she is planning to find out more information about the mysterious Dr. Baxter Stockman (Tyler Perry) and what he might be doing with some chemicals at the TCRI lab. When she finally does discover what he is truly up to, it's not good news, especially for the turtles as well as the innocent people. Some new additions to the sequel include Casey Jones (Stephen Amell from 'Arrow'), the fan favorites; Bebop (Gary Anthony Williams) and Rocksteady (Sheamus) as well as adding Laura Linney as Chief Rebecca Vincent, who often looks down on Casey, who wants to prove to her that he can be a worthy cop. The Shredder (Brian Tee) manages to escape jail and plans to threaten the city once again... only this time, the turtles seem to have trouble hiding themselves from the public. Everywhere they go, there is always this concern that they might expose themselves to anyone who aren't familiar with them. The film, once again, is not directed by Michael Bay (he remains as producer), but is directed by Dave Green. However, it's hard to ignore that it still feels like a Michael Bay directed action movie. The typical slow-motion explosions, the out-of-place humor (we get more fart jokes again), proving that Megan Fox is nothing more than eye-candy, and some unusual camera techniques that were only unique to a Michael Bay-directed movie. Never has a movie failed to gain my attention, but 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows' might just get that reward.… Expand

Megan fox is ugly and annoying, through out the movie she rolls around the ground 100 times and still her perfect makeup and white t-shirt stay clean some how. The guy who plays arrow is in this and it's his bad acting shines through, but no one should be surprised there as he has no range in his tv show.

There is not one good part about this movie. The jokes are stale, and the action is boring and the villain is not even cool. Don't waste money on watching this movie, it will just disappoint you.

I understand what this film is trying to do, it's trying to be fun and entertaining. But it didn't do it for me thanks to the awful acting, terrible CGI and lack of anything really interesting. TMNT fans might like it.

They are simply just 'the coolest'. Which does not give hollywood the right to ride on their coat tails with a mediocre script.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I was disappointed with this one. Mostly because certain characters worked so well while other characters and sub-plots kept popping in to muddle the pacing.

Bebop and Rocksteady = great fun
Casey Jones, April O'neil, and the Brazil sub-plot = Confusing and shoe-horned

It seems they tried to play up the more bright and plucky side of New York, which personally has never worked well for the ninja turtles. They always thrive in a much more criminal-oriented NYC, here it feels like they've just been bored since Shredder was put away. Not any crime-fighting going on in this one.

Besides that, they re-use the old "Raph breaks away from the group and progresses the plot" technique that is getting *very* tiring now. Splinter is also barely in this too.

Overall, while it has over-the-top fun; the miss-steps make this less entertaining than the first.… Expand
