Movie Reviews of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Three Pack (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II - The Secret of the Ooze/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III)
Movie Review: The nostalgic only need apply
Summary: 5 Stars
TMNT 1: Nice and dark, had a slight tang of the comic books while staying kid-friendly (for the most part). Animatronics aren't so hot, but admit it -- you're not watching it for special effects anyway! The story is wonderfully goofy: basically setting up the TMNT vs. Shredder, but including such ridiculous themes as ninjas corrupting NYC's easily addled youth in a coordinated effort to steal wallets and random valuables (no doubt to add to Shredder's impressive wall of televisions). But don't let that turn you off... it's a fun flick because it's so delightfully campy, and you can't go wrong with it.
TMNT II: TMNT II is not as dark and contains about 90% more cheese than #1. This said, I enjoy TMNT 2 just as much as I enjoy TMNT 1, just for different reasons. Perhaps because it reminds me so strongly of the Saturday Morning cartoon -- it has such a good heart and is so ridiculous that you can't help but come away from it feeling pleasant. Better yet, I feel they tried to include all of the Turtles instead of focusing so much on Raphael. The humor hits the mark almost every time: who can forget lines like "Too Raph!", and how can one not erupt into laughter when a stunned Shredder is warmly embraced by his idiotic mutant cronies? The animatronics/suits look great -- they're easily the best looking in the trilogy. Can't go wrong with the simple story, either -- it hits the right key with some mutant mayhem in the forms of Tokka and Rahzar, mutants who Shredder creates to defeat the Turtles. The most important and enjoyable part: "Ninja Rap." Need I say more?
TMNT 3: I never watched this as a child. So when I got the 3-Pak in, I decided to try it out. Unfortunately, it's terrible enough to burn your eyes out: the animatronics/suits are downright awful (the Turtle suits look like they came out of one of those egg machines in the supermarket), the dialogue is goofy, the plot is cheap and idiotic - well, I guess if I were more subjective, I could say that about the other two movies, but at least those campy plots fit with who the TMNT were. This one departs from the TMNT with gusto: they are transported to feudal Japan (utterly out of their element -- part of what makes them interesting is the idea that they could be lurking unseen beneath your feet in a sewer somewhere), where they are accepted by a whole Japanese village with open arms (despite that much of their allure is that they are pariahs), and some villains who are goofy rather than threatening (come on: Shredder could rip your face off... Tokka and Rahzar could throw a 200-pound Turtle thirty feet in the air... and then in TMNT 3 you have a shrimpy daimyo with the wide-eyed gaze and shakes of a chihuahua and some pasty-faced gunrunner with finches). I would have felt cheated had I not realized that you're essentially paying only for TMNT 1&2. 3 was thrown in as a gag, I suppose.
Overall: 3 aside, this is a collection you can't do without. The nostalgic value alone is monumental. And the movies are still enjoyable for kids of all ages - ideal for passing on a little of that TMNT bug to future generations! Definitely a must-buy for any TMNT fan, young or old.
