How is this garbage getting a 6 rating????

This blasphemous pile of junk is just abysmal. Besides resembling the Turtles in neither narrative nor appearance, the rest of the movie is a plot hole inside a paradox, cooked up by a group of guys who's only real exposure to Ninja Turtles was a few fuzzy Saturday mornings after a drinking binge in college. Like every other Platinum Dunes production, every change makes no sense and takes away from what the source originally was. In a franchise that is ripe for the age of special effects and great story telling, as a fan I feel more than just let down and betrayed...enough of my fan-boy bitching. All said and done how the *beep* is this POS getting a 6 out of 10???

I think that they should have continued doing the series in the same style as the TMNT movie from 2007 instead. I gave this crap an 3 :(

Film people are a strange breed. They'd rather defend movies or write off negative experiences than complain and hurt someone's feelings. I wasn't expecting the movie to be Shawkshank but I was expecting a reasonably entertaining feature film. (Disappointed.) For me, it only works as a comedy. If you question the small things like why would a man sized turtle wear high tops? It turns a very strange hour and a half commercial. Were they expecting to sell Filas because a turtle wore them? In a city that does pizza like no other, why would New York natives eat Pizza Hut pizza?

I'm weird but this movie got real weird, real fast.

Its got a mid-range score because its a mid-range movie. It wasn't a great film by any stretch, but it also wasn't a truly awful film. While you thought it bore no resemblance to the source material, it wasn't so far removed that I found it a total turn-off. Perhaps you need to unclench a little, hmm?

I gave it a 2. He took it and ran away. Next thing I knew he had put it in its sequel's title and was laughing at me. Stupid little punk.

I signed in to a virtually unused account to give it a 10 sheerly out spite alone. The first time I saw it I thought it was perfectly serviceable for the audience for whom it was made, and worth about 5/10, but having just watched it again out of boredom I realize that if I was 10 years old again and this was my introduction to TMNT that it would probably by the single greatest thing I'd ever seen. This isn't for you, manchild, this is a kids movie, for kids. There has never been a show or movie made using the TMNT property that resembled the comic. If you thought that 30 years after the fact that Michael Bay would produce a movie honoring the original then you're delusional.

But, that's how it's getting a 6/10, spite, and kids like ninjas turtles.
