TMNT does its job: CGIs are done very nicely, the visual overhaul of the Turtles' design comes near the original comic-look and for a kiddie flick (let's face it TMNTs target audience is well below 14) it is a shade darker, cooler and grown-up than any of the other animation films hitting the Box Office right now.I was not sure what to expect after some of the reviews I read before seeing TMNT, but have to admit I was pleasantly surprised. Snappy one-liners and some tongue-in-cheek comments younger viewers will not get did really make this a great CGI-movie. Especially the hyper-kinetic camera work and the rather unusual scene setups were really intriguing.Don't listen to the "It's-not-like-the-comics"-Fanboys and dive into the turtle world, you won't regret it.

Saw the preview of TMNT on the weekend and I have to say that the comments from ChimpCadet are spot on.I am one of the older generation of TMNT fans and I can happily say that I greatly enjoyed watching this film. Also the row of children sitting behind me did not make one noise from the start of the film to the end. Which I think is a good sign to universal appeal of this film.The plot ticks along at a good pace, some of the action sequence are outstanding in terms of action, animation and detail (as stated by ChimpCadet the fight in the rain is a highlight of this film).On the whole a great film that does well to start the franchise and spawn a sequel or two.

this is the first CG animated adventure of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.i had fairly high hopes for this movie.unfortunately,it didn't live up to them.i found the story lacking and uninteresting.plus,it just moves too slow.i didn't find the action scenes very good either.honestly,i just didn't thin the movie was worthy of the characters.it's CG animated,so it looks really nice.the voice actors were good.but the rest of the movie was lacking.i just was not engaged at all.maybe i just expected too much given the history of the characters.even though i didn't like the movie too much,i wouldn't call it horrible and there are a lot of worse movies out there,most of which i have seen.in my opinion,TMNT is a 5/10
