Summary: The Super Shredder!!!
Review: Ahh, this is a GREAT movie! It is ranked up with the first movie, and almost as good. You learn the history of the Turtles and how they came to be. The Super Shredder is also a great touch. Toca and Razar are very freaky and are perfect rivals for the Turtles. Very action and comedy packed. A great film for the family.

Summary: There's something very wrong with this!
Review: Alright, first of all, i really love this movie. I used to watch it all the time when i was little. So you'd think that with a DVD of it coming it, it should be incredible. However, there's something unbelievably wrong about this DVD. If you take notice, it gives you an option of either watching it in fullscreen or widescreen. Naturally, eveyone jumps to the widescreen because they've never seen it, but it's not better than fullscreen. From comparing the two, widescreen is just fullscreen with black bars cutting off a bit of the top and the bottom of the fullscreen to look like widescreen. An easy comparison is when the title pops up and the screen freezes. Nothing in widescreen is gained, just a bit is lost. This dvd is no better than the VHS that you have stored away in your closet. It is an incredible movie, however the DVD quality doesn't help its appearance. As my advise to anyone who is looking for improvement, don't get this because nothing is gained unless you dont own the movie on VHS already. I am very very sorry to say this myself, but try to stay clear of the DVD if you own it on VHS already. Sorry guys.

Summary: The Radical Reptiles are back to give em SHELL!
Review: America's favorite green teens are back in action and this time they got villians just like them. The Story continues When Splinter shows the turtles the empty canister that once had ooze that transformed him and the turtles 15 years ago. The canister matches events going on a TGRI:Techno Global Research Industries.The Turtles must find out "the secret of the ooze". The Shredder returns and wips out a plan to defeat the turtles, he forces Professer Jordan Perry,CEO of TGRI to mutate a Wolf and a snapping turtle into humanoid creatures. The same mutation that transformed the Turtles and Splinter,he names his creatures Toka and Razar. The Turtles soon stop Toka and Razar and defeat the Shredder. This sequel is awsome,more high kicking action,funny and entertaining, the Turtles still ruled in this one. I recommend this If you saw TMNT: The Movie and if you watched the show as a child. Bring home Mikey,Donny,Leo and Raph in their second high kicking adventure. "NEXT FIGHT WILL BE FREAK AGAINIST FREAK!

Summary: Go ninja, go ninja, go!
Review: Great movie. You have to see this flick. This movie tells the story of how the turtles came to be. The action scenes are fantastic.I must admit, however, that the script is weak at times. The two evil mutants are also rather annoying. However, the writers/directors scored an A+ in my book when they casted Vanilla Ice as the Dance Club singer. The Ice Man basically strapped a weak script onto his back and carried this movie to extraordinary success. Vanilla's Ninja Rap is one of the greatest rap songs I have ever heard. The Ninja Rap is definitely on par with MC Hammer's U Can't Touch This and Sir Mix-A-Lot's Put 'Em On The Glass. Buy this movie.

Summary: Ahh, my first exposure to the live action turtles
Review: Great stuff. Very funny and violent in a harmless kind of way. Ernie Reyes Jr. was on his way to becoming an action star for the younger set with this film, unfortunately, he ran smack into the movie "Surf Ninjas" and ruined his film career, but I still saw him years afterward as a judge on beauty contests. What a good kid film can get you into nowadays. Anyway, this film takes the Turtles back into the vague illusion of the genre which was the genesis of this story in the first place, science fiction. We find more of the glowing ooze and what it does if consumed by Shredder. Also of great note is the cameo by Vanilla Ice as the club performer. Although he was never really cool to me I think his cameo in this film is the thing of genius because he's just so odd of a man. He did have charisma back then and he doesn't now because he lied to us about his being raised in a harsh environment. In reality, he was so popular back then that he probably wouldn't be playing at a small club, he'd be playing arenas, but that's not as alluring, or immediate as a small basement club that the Turtles happen to crash into while being pursued by the foot squad. What he ends up rapping isn't great in retrospect, nothing he's ever done, or will do, will ever be that good, but all my friends that went to see it wanted to talk about was that rap, it was simple, dancable, and set to the club atmosphere which I had never experienced before. Ultimately, the movie is just as odd in an attempt to be more bloodlessly violent, funny, and over the top than the previous film. What it ends up skipping out on is the human story which makes the first film better, in my opinion. The Turtles are so entertaining because they are more than human, but it's no surprise that they resemble a human scientific genius, hothead,standup comedian, and jock-like captain. It's when the Turtles are in contrast to people that they shine the most and they seem to do less of in this film while still remaining entertaining.

Summary: The test of time...
Review: I can't possibly give this movie the five stars I would like to. It's been a long time since I've seen it until I found it at Wal-Mart. I bought it, and very eagerly watched it, and while I still love it I am also no longer marred by being a child, the flaws of this movie are simply that its dated now. Michelangelo's comment about "video games in 3D" garnered a chuckle out of me because for over almost a decade now video games have been in 3D.
Its kind of weird how this works. As a child I didn't much care for the first Turtles movie, but as an adult suddenly the humor makes sense and I find it to be a very enjoyable flick, in contrast, TMNT 2, which was my favorite as a child of the TMNT trilogy, now seems... well... childish. Its not that this movie is unenjoyable, as its still a fun movie, just don't expect the depth of something like... say X-Men, or Spider-Man, the type of super hero movies I tend to go for now. I think its safe to say that I've out grown the Ninja Turtles. Still, as a Jim Henson fan, I'm still glad I have this movie now, as I am a Henson completist and am trying to get every Henson related film on DVD. I may be single still, but I hope to have a family someday, and it will be great to be able to show these types of movies to my children who will likely find more entertainment value out of this particular installment than I did.
Please don't misunderstand the review, its not that I don't like this film, it's just that as an adult, the first movie was a lot better.

Summary: One of the Best Dumb Movies Ever!
Review: I hadn't watched this movie in years, I was a huge Turtle fan back in the day, but then I bought the 3-disc movie set and the first one I popped in was Secret of the Ooze to watch with my friends. It was 10 times funnier than I remember because there were so many jokes that I never picked up on/got when I was kid that I can now (eg. the Ralph Nader/net joke).
The movie is much lighter and campier than the first but it works better that way. I mean, come on, we're dealing with a group of teenage mutant turtles who were trained in the art of the ninja by a giant rat named Splinter in New York City. You can't take it too seriously and the movie works well to just have fun with Leo, Donnie, Ralph and Mikey. The one flaw of this movie was no more crazy Casey Jones and the addition of that annoying Asian kid Keno (Surf Ninjas, another classicly bad great movie). Aside from that, I liked that the turtles had to deal with the fact that there origins were essentially a scientific "uh oh" and this movies has some of the best lines. Donnie: You take the ugly one!
Ralph: No, you take the ugly one!
Leo: I'll take the ugly one!
Mikey: Which one's the ugly one?!
Oh, it doesn't get any better than that. Oh wait, Vanilla Ice is in the movie too so I guess it does.

Summary: TURTLE POWER
Review: I have been a fan of Ninja Turtles ever since the craze began in the late 80's. I remember when the first film came out, I thought that one was good and I still do. However, I have always liked The Secret of the Ooze a little bit more. It is a very funny, well acted movie (gotta love David Warner), with one of the coolest villains ever. To quote Vanilla Ice, "Go ninja! go ninja! Go!"

Summary: One of the best movies I have ever seen
Review: I have watching Turtles since I was little. I used to watch the cartoons everyday. I just recently bought TMNT: The Movie on DVD. I still have the action figures that my parents bought for me when I was like 3 yrs. old. My dad packed them away thinking they would be worth something one day. I also have the comic book adaption of TMNT 3. I can't wait to get the second and third movies on DVD.
