1.0 out of 5 stars all good things come to an end......, September 5, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I remember when i was 8 years old
many fond memories which includes the ninja turtles which in my opinion was the greatest action show for boys and well......
as far as I remember some girls as well.....well the movies at least.
I loved the first and I loved the second movie (actually i liked the second more even though i shouldnt have really)
and the third.......well we can be very cruel and nasty at this movie and give nasty reviews and how it was the cause of the turtles demise but the fact is that turtles had already enjoyed its peak and was already on the way out.
this movie was merely the ninja turtles last breath of air.
however the fact is this movie had a lot less efort put into it than the previous 2 movies which is reflected in the bad use of lip movement by the turtles which mixes badly with the script which obviously was neglected in the making of the movie.
also the costumes had changed slightly for the worst and in one scene if i remember you could see strings on splinters hand as he shuts a window at the start of the movie.
it was little touches like this that bought the movie right down.
then came the hard task for the producers to make a story without shredder involved
and you may say that if the produces had of bought him back for the third movie it would have looked stupid as he clearly died in the 2nd movie but then I have to ask you...would it have mattered really? i mean this movie clearly was just a cheap cash in on the turtles series anyway which was going to be the teams last attemped to make some cash on the dying series so if the movie is ugly anyway would shredders precence have really mattered because in my opinion it would have helped because the movie couldnt have been any worse.
Altough all companys will try to make as much cash as they can on there products its just a shame the turtles series had to go down the same path and was done so badly in the process? just
dont remember the turtles this way because i really wish i hadnt
have.
i would like to recommend though on a brighter note that the first and second movies are great and will bring back fond memories of when the ninja turtles were still the greatest.

5.0 out of 5 stars So what if it's not the first movie, It's still good!, June 19, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III (DVD)

People complained over and over about how bad this movie was, well now I've finally got to see it again after 10 years! I loved it when I was seven and I love it even more now! This movie was NOT a bad movie,In fact I feel this one was nearly as good as the first film, much lighter and goofier but it still deserves second place. This was much better than the second movie to me. The first movie was dark,serious, and great! The second film was okay but came across as a bit too goofy at times to me(But I still loved it!^-^) and the third movie was, like another customer said, a combo of the two. And as for the animatronics...I didn't see anything wrong with them, they looked exacally like the second movie costumes with better facial expressions! Do I reccommend this movie? Hell yeah! It's not as good as the first movie but that doesn't make it a bad film. Some customers here have said that the storyline is too farfetched for the TMNT-verse, and again I disagree. The comics,old toon,and the brilliant new toon have all taken the fans of the series to new places. In fact I believe this movie was loosly based on a Michealangelo comic from the Mirage series,the one where Mikey writes this little story about him being in ancient Japan and helping people there. Anyway, I'll end my review here. I loved this movie and I'm sure most Ninja Turtles fans will enjoy it too.

1.0 out of 5 stars Compared to the other 2?, September 2, 2002

Jonathan Dailey (Frankfort, KY United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III (DVD)

Well...I was always a fan of TMNT growing up. So of course I had to see all 3 movies. While myself and some of my friends argue whether this one(#3) or #2 is the 2nd best TMNT film made, its still in my opinion the worst of the 3. By far in my opinion #1 is definatly the best. No question asked. This deviated from the whole storyline and really had no place. I saw this as more of a kids movie than anything else...whereas I could get into the first two more. I'm rating this pretty low as I think they could have done something a lot better with the third film.
