This film always gets plaque because of the simple fact that it's story isn't exact to the game itself. Think of it in this perspective, if a film was only about a guy who jumps on turtles and goes down pipes, the film wouldn't be very interesting now would it? This movie goes beyond that and creates a realism within the story and characters to show a much more clever and diverse story. Looking at this film, it's actually rather brilliant how the realistically incorperated the characters.

You either love this movie, or hate it. And I feel that people cease to look at this film in the correct perspective. In my opinion, this is the best video game adaptation out there besides Mortal Kombat. If you havent seen this film, I advise you to give it a try and to keep an open mind, you will enjoy it much more. Give it a shot, it deserves it.
