Teenage mutant ninja turtles 1990

This film blew my mind when I saw it in theaters when I was about 9. It had some top notch action scenes that were kinda violent for a kids film and had some great animatronic effects for the turtles bringing them to life. This film is also way ahead of it's time, keeping in tone with the original source material, kinda keeping it street level and making it a bit more dark and serious with bits of light hearted fun here and there. It strikes a nice balance keeping things from getting to dark. It's a well made fun movie.

The movie still holds up surprisingly well. I prefer the classic turtles in costumes vice the contemporary CGI-blue screen turtles.

I like it and it surprises me how well it holds up. I remember seeing it with my grandmother in theaters and she wasn't impressed but I loved it :lol:

love this flick! 2nd one also....3rd not so much.
