5.0 out of 5 stars
Its a final battle between the Shredder and the Turtles! You won't want to be without this Dvd in your Tmnt Library!, May 12, 2006
This Dvd contains the Two-part finale of Season three, Exodus. This is it. For months, the Shredder has been collecting alien technology and the turtles have discovered what he plans to do with it. He plans to board a starship and conqur the Utrom homeworld. So our heroes take the fight to their most powerful enemy. But Agent Bishop decides that he has a say in all this as well, so the action heats up even more. It all comes down to one final decisive battle, but it is it one our green teens can win?
Stop reading now if you don't want to have the rest of the episodes spoiled. I have to say that I love this new Shredder. I mean, I'll always enjoy the Shredder of my youth. The old Tmnt 1987 Shredder, but this guy... He doesn't play around. He's the type of villain who makes you love to hate him because of his actions. He's not your normal Saturday morning cartoon villain. I mean, he broke both of Mikey's legs. Burnt Splinter pretty bad. Knocked Leonardo onto Karai's sword and caused him to be stabbed. I hope this isn't the last we see of Shredder. Karai makes a good stand in, but no one kicks shell like our man Saki. And having the turtles basicly lose the fight was interesting. You always expect the good guys to win in fights with villains, but this wasn't the case. Yeah, the turtles did win, but they got the living mess beat out of them.
This dvd also includes a few episodes from Season Iv. Cousin Sid, Dragon's Brew, and Bad day. The last two are wonderful. Bad Day especially because we get a bit of foreshadowing concerning the foot mystics and Karai that's very important later on in the season. Also, we get our first look at the Heart of Tengu. I'd not seen this ep before I watched Good Geens, but now I understand how it all fits together.
Ok, so this Dvd's a must have for the Tmnt 2003 animated series fan. So I strongly suggest you buy it.

Shredder meet Karma..., September 3, 2008
I really haven't raved about an American action-oriented cartoon (that can be enjoyed by children and adults) since the 90's with possibly X-Men, Spider-Man and Batman.
But I recently have been taking notes with the great writing for cartoons such as JUSTICE LEAGUE UNLIMITED and TEEN TITANS and another one to add to this list is TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES.
No, this is not the same (lame) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles that aired back in the 90's. This time around, it's much more action-oriented and also at times, serious in nature.
In the TMNT: Ways of the Warrior DVD featuring Shredder's Final Countdown, this is the DVD where it's an all out fight fest to the end between the Turtles and Shredder (for now).
I was a bit surprised with the the "EXODUS" storyline as Splinter and the turtles do what they can to stop Shredder by shooting him multiple times with arrows, using their weapons to injure him (ie. stabbing him with the sai's) and even seeing the Turtles actually getting hurt big time!
The show is definitely more character driven and perhaps even darker and using less of the "hey dude! I want to eat pizza" that clogged our television sets in the 90's.
The DVD is quite simple with five episodes, trailers to other TMNT releases and that's pretty much it.
So, why get this DVD? Well, for one it's under $10 and most of all to finally see Shredder getting his own personal butt kicking which was long overdue.
