Wonderful.......2007-06-09

These three movies are the best. Talk about returning to your childhood. I loved TMNT and I was sad that I never saw much of them anymore. Now, I can watch them whenever I want. It's a great deal, well worth the money.

Ninja Turtles boxset DVD.......2007-06-08

I love the turtles and nothing is better than having all three live action films in one boxset. Highly recommended for those turtle fans out there!!

The nostalgic only need apply.......2007-06-06

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.

Enjoyable sequel!.......2007-05-02

After the events of the first movie, the four mutant ninja turtles have temporary shelter at the apartment of April O'Neil (Paige Turco) until they can find the pefect home for them and their master Splinter (voiced by Kevin Clash). The Shredder still lives and has stolen a cannister of toxic chemicals from the chemical plant that made the ooze that served as the turtle's origins for he uses it to create two killer mutant animals of his own named Razarr and Tokkar as only the amazing four can stop them.

Entertaining and action-packed sequel to the 1990 hit movie isn't quite as great as the original cult fave but still delivers action and humor even if it's kid friendly nor as dark as the original movie. Jim Henson's Creature Shop did it again with the creatures in this movie especially Tonkar and Razarr who maybe dumb looking but look realistic, David Warner and Vanilla Ice co-star especially with the song "Go Ninja Go Ninja Go".

This DVD has clear picture and sound with both widescreen and fullscreen editions with only one extra which is the theatrical trailer.

Too Silly To Rival The Original.......2007-04-22

Hot off the heels of the original blockbuster (released barely a year after its predecessor), TMNT II: The Secret Of The Ooze rolls out in a promising fashion, taking us back to crime-plagued New York City, where our currently-sewerless Turtles make the unsettling discovery that their arch-nemesis, the Shredder, survived the events of the first film and is attempting to secure the radioactive contaminant which spawned them to create his own super-mutants.

...if you've seen the original film, this must sound a bit silly.
True, it's difficult to argue the meaning of silliness when the film is already based on four katana(sai, bo, nunchuko)-wielding reptiles who wear masks over their eyes, but this film's cult-status prequel proved that the Turtles could be taken seriously when handled as fighters against underworld crime. TMNT2, however, sheds much of the dark tone that effectively highlighted the original; seemingly taking the philosophy that sheer fun can fill in shortcomings out-of-context, in creation of a film which is almost definitely designed for an audience less mature than that of the original TMNT film.

It starts with the Turtles doing what they do best - fighting street crime and eating pizza - without much of a care, but when it becomes clear that the cause of their mutation is being sought by a returning Shredder, the boys jump into action, and into the spotlight.
However, the spotlight is likewise thrown upon the Shredder, an action which was not performed in the original film in a successful effort to keep Oroku Saki as demonic as a man could be. However, when presented in all of his glory, unabashed, the unshrouded Shredder looks like a dork in a purple jumpsuit and an oversized helmet - one might think he was to appear on "Power Rangers." He loses almost all of his credibility when he is hugged and cuddled, however unwillingly, by his two would-be-terrifying, imprintive monsters, Tokka and Rahzar. Actually, these guys don't have much of a chance to be terrifying, unless you wake up to their faces in the middle of the night: the realism of their costumes pale in comparison to that of the Turtles, giving the impression of simply two well-made Halloween costumes.

Enter further into a world where the Turtles are less on the streets (arguable, if you consider junkyards-turned-to-hideouts a part of the streets), where British professors become storyline-essentials, and where huge dandelions grow, and you've got yourself a taste of TMNT2. Better yet, consider the reptile quartet in a disco, dancing to Vanilla Ice's (check out his hair!) 'Ninja Rap' before blasting the Shredder through the air and a wall with the use of an amplifier.
Overall, the film seems to take its tone from the animated series, relying on a plot that's more sci-fi than the original and less on the hardcore, emotional trek that was its predecessor.

However, in its defense, TMNT2 displays no slouching when it comes to its kung fu - a cornerstone of the film: the fighting is as stylized and entertaining as ever, even when it incorporates Michelangelo swinging sausages instead of nunchukas and Donatello 'surfing' on a rolling chair. The choreography works as well as it did in the first film, though it offers no innovation. Likewise, all of the Turtles and other headliners are kept respectfully in-character, with Leo retaining his role as the disciplined leader, Raph as the emotional hothead, Mikey as ever the comedian, and Don...getting a bit more screen-time as the intellectual determined to uncover the meaning of their existence (which is a nice change, seeing as he was simply an addition to Mike in the previous film).

Nothing in TMNT2 exceeds much in any criteria, with the stumblings in the film's storyline bringing the feature down only to average...which is a fall from the original's quality, but not really a bad position in a world of otherwise sub-average action flicks. Though highly reccomended for youngsters whose parents will let them watch it, fans of the franchise shouldn't be afraid to give it a look, either (after all, it could have been worse). In a perfect world, TMNT2 would've outdone TMNT, or at least rivaled it for fan-pleasing value. TMNT2 comes off as a kid's film, more than anything else; though somewhat dissapointing, it's a fun (yet unnecessary) sequel to an ever funner cult classic.

Turtle Nut.......2007-03-08

If you liked the first movie, you'll like this one. More detail on how they became TMNT. Funny,action,all around fun to watch

The best TMNT movie of them ALL!.......2006-11-06

TMNT 1 and 2 were awesome and the turtles always crack me up! thanks! amazon for the quick delivery

Dated.......2006-07-08

This movie has excellent action and costumes, but it still has that early 90's pop culture dated look. Fifteen years later, I finally realize how annoying it is when any one of the turtles uses the word "Cowabunga."

The movie's plot is simple, and it doesn't have bad words and things like that, so it's a really good movie for kids. I really love the new mutants Tokka and Razar. Real dumb strong monsters always make the movie for me. Shredder's a good villian as well, seeking a horrible revenge on the turtles at all costs, and destroying himself inside and out in the process.

It's a shame David Warner's role as the TGRI scientist is so forgettable. If you want to see him at his best, watch the Star Trek Next Generation episode entitled "Chain of Command: Part 2." He really shines in that.
