Ditching the cheeky, self-aware wink that helped to excuse the concept's inherent corniness, the movie attempts to look polished and 'cool,' but the been-there animation can't compete with the then-cutting-edge puppetry of the 1990 live-action movie.

The rubber suits are gone and they've been redone with fancy computer technology, but that hasn't stopped them from becoming dull.

Very dark movie, way too serious, way too realistic in my opinion for a kids cartoon movie. This is CGI and it looks real and the story is just not fun enough, which makes it too old for my 6 year old. The bad guys are pretty dark and intense, they should have gone for more "cowabunga" and less "lord of the rings."

The turtles themselves may look prettier, but are no smarter; torn irreparably from their countercultural roots, our superheroes on the half shell have been firmly co-opted by the industry their creators once sought to spoof.

Impersonally animated and arbitrarily plotted, the story appears to have been made up as the filmmakers went along.

The striking use of image and motion allows each sequence to leave an impression. It's an accomplished restart to this franchise.

The script feels like it was computer generated. This mechanical presentation lacks the cheesy charm of the three live action films.
