No turtle film has topped this.
That includes "Over the Hedge" which has nothing to do with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
shareVery true. It is actually a great movie. It's too bad that they didn't bring back Steve Barron to direct the sequel and it might have been just as good.
shareI love how they tried to make it as realistic as possible. Obviously they're talking turtles, but the dark look really legitimized the film.
shareWell the suits were just fantastic too. There are a couple of scenes where the mouth movements looked way off, but the ability for the actors to move around at fast speeds and do "ninja" moves was incredible. Additionally there is a heavy theme thrown around about family, not just with the turtles, but with Danny and his Dad too. Splinter just embodies knowledge and wisdom with everything he says. It's a great movie and appeals to kids and adults.
shareI wonder how much I would have liked this if I never saw this as a kid and only saw it as an adult. Maybe I might have even appreciated it more.
sharewell they should have never killed shredder in this and actually set up a sequel
shareShredder didn't die, and he was in the sequel.
shareHe fell off a building and was crushed by a garbage truck. Should have went the cartoon show route. Be defeated and retreat.
shareIn the sequel you see him wake up in the garbage dump. He wasn't dead.

Im aware, I saw the sequel and that's part of the reason it wasn't as good and why the franchise had no where to go but DOWN.
shareI don't understand, if you were aware about him not being dead and in the sequel why did you write this?
"well they should have never killed shredder in this and actually set up a sequel"
He died in the first one. The second pretended like nothing happened when he fell about 10 stories and was crushed to death.
