Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Review

Review of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) by screenqueeen: 👍 4/5

Removed from its nostalgic influences, it's still one of the best comic book adaptations to date. Follows cues from BATMAN to a point but still retains its inherent light-hearted goofiness to win over the hearts of kids everywhere. Sam Rockwell and Elias Koteas got my attention early from this. Can't say how many times I've watched this as I wore out my VHS copy when I was a kid.

Pretty sure my martial arts instructor showed this to my Kuk Sool class as a treat and I latched onto it from there.
