DVD Reviews of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
DVD Review: Happily satisfied
Summary: 5 Stars
Product was is excellant shape, as stated it would be. It arrived on the exact date as I was told it would. I'm very pleased with supplier and will purchase from again.DVD Review: The best one out of all 4 films
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember going to see this one at the movies almost 20 years ago, the amount of people that lined up to see this film was huge, from the entrance door, to the other end street, I'll never forget that sight for as long as I live.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was a damn good film, this will keep kids, adults and fans of the comic books hooked from start to finish.
The story kicks off with April O Neil's news report about the shocking rise of theft that's happing in New York City, but she knows that something big is going down involving A secret organization of ninja thieves known as The Foot, the rest is for you to watch if whoever reads this has never seen this before.
The characterisation in the film is very good and the cast portraying these characters where excellent I can't think of anything bad to say about it.
The humour in this movie was highly enjoyable and often funny, my favourite part in the film is where a Foot ninja is showing off his nunchuck skills to the turtles and Mikey out skills him which in turn gets the Foot ninjas p***ed off.
When the action kicks off, it's fast,fun and entertaining which is good to know, the music was skilfuly done and it sets the tone for some of the scenes in film.
In short TMNT is a fun, often funny and engageing film and the best one out of all 4 films.
DVD Review: Needs Special Edition!!!! Not a re-release!!
Summary: 1 Stars
This movies gets a 5/5, but not the dvd. Recently Steve Barron (director) offered materials for a special edition, but Warner bros wasn't interested! It's almost the 25th anniversary of TMNT and because they're "not interested" they re-release the same old garabage in a 25th anniversary packaging! If anyone cares about this movie join me and stop buying warner bros dvds!!!!DVD Review: TMNT-Classic
Summary: 5 Stars

Thanks :)
DVD Review: I liked it when it was on VHS and i'm buying the DVD three-pack as soon as I can.
Summary: 5 Stars
I'll admit that I was at first only a reluctant fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cartoons back in the late 80's and early 90's, if for no other reason than I was pretty much forced to watch it by the simple fact that my brother and sister both watched it while they babysat me. But as time got on I did grow to genuinely enjoy the series. I mean, who can watch the show and not laugh at the bumbling antics of Shredder and his goons as they try to gain the advantage against the turtles? So when I heard that a TMNT movie was in the works (it came out as I recall in the summer of my tenth year back in 1990), I was at least willing to give it a whirl.
It should be noted that in quite a few important ways the movie is as unlike to the cartoon as night from day. The actors aren't even the same, for one thing. Not that this detracted from my enjoyment of the film or its two sequels, it didn't. But certain elements of the characters' past, Splinter and Shredder's in particular, were altered, more I think to be more true to the comics than anything. Splinter goes from being the mutated form of a Ninja warrior named Hamato Yoshi to being the pet of said Ninja. Raphael, who in the cartoon was always the wsecracker of the group, becomes a much more solitary, angry character often given to acts of rashness that nearly cost him his life. This behavior almost creates a rift in the turtles at one point, but they reunite in an effort to save their beloved master from Shredder. There's another character much changed from his cartoon persona. Gone is the often petulant, whiny villain, to be replaced by a sinister and ruthless criminal mastermind with an ominous voice. In short he changes from someone to be laughed at to a man to avoid at any cost.
All in all I was very impressed with the movies. I only wish I still had my VHS copies, but then again I so rarely watch those anymore that it seemed more advisable to get them on DVD, which I intend to do next month if finances permit. So if you haven't already seen them, pop on over to your local video rental and pick up the three TMNT films. I personally liked the first one best, but Secret of the Ooz was close behind. The third one took a bit of getting used to but I eventually did conclude that I liked it just as much as the others.
Description of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie is the live-action, feature film adaptation of the cult comic book and the popular animated television show. After prolonged exposure to radiation, four teenage turtles--Michelangelo, Raphael, Leonardo, and Donatello--have mutated into ninjas and have begun living in the sewers of a large city. Under the guidance of a ninja master Splinter the Rat and television reporter April, the Turtles embark on a mission to run crime out of the city and battle the warlord Shredder. Year: 1990 Director: Steve Barron Starring: Judith Hoag, Elias Koteas, Corey FeldmanDVD Features:

Theatrical Trailer
You can chalk it up to good timing and a heavy dose of video-game synergy, but this 1990 hit remains the box-office champ of independent films, with a total gross of $135 million. Of course the Turtles, who hatched as comic book characters, are also the stars of a phenomenally successful Nintendo video game, so it was a given that the movie would be a hit with its target audience of rabid young video addicts. This is what comic books fans call "the origin story," in which we learn how a foursome of small turtles were mutated by a green radioactive goo and turned into human-sized turtle crime fighters. Their large rodent mentor, Splinter, teaches them to master the martial arts. They're also gifted pop musicians, by the way (think of them as amphibious Spice Guys), so they can rock the house while they're cracking a crime wave with the help of their cute friend and television reporter April O'Neil (Judith Hoag). The script is terrible, of course, but countless millions of children don't seem to care, as long as the Turtles keep ordering pizza and dispensing their wisecracking brand of justice. --Jeff Shannon
