Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (June 6, 2014)

[BenGrimm]

Went to see Guardians of the Galaxy today for a matinee showing and was surprised to see that TMNT was sold out. Its doing much better than I anticipated it would and won't be surprised if it does $70 Mil. this weekend.

When I looked at box office mojo yesterday evening TMNT did around $65mil and GotG brought in another $45mil.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2014) - 8/10

That's right! I loved it, this film seemed to borrow a lot from several different TMNT incarnations from the original to the new Nickelodeon animated version.

I was 10 when the original hit theaters and I thought this was a worthy modern reboot. Once you get past the look (noses) of the turtles. I was able to settle in and enjoy it and I thought it was a lot of fun. Not real sure why anyone had a problem with Megan Fox I thought her character was more in line with the original animated version than the original films version outside of being a high profile reporter. She wasn't afraid to get her hands dirty.

I thought the voice acting was pretty spot-on with close to the traditional sound of the characters.

My one and only complaint was the Shredder being to robotic or what ever you want to call it. He looked like a CGI character more so than anything else in the film. Make it two things the fight stuff on the side of the mountain had that been a little more grounded and had Shredder been a little more traditional looking I would have given it a 9/10.

Shredder is a negative of Michael bay being in charge. You get wrecks, explosions, etc. but you also get robot fighting crap.

I saw this and it was great.

So shredder gets mutated I wonder what will happen to his body.
The turtles are bulletproof I wonder if this includes their faces.
Megan fox did a great job playing April including playing scared. This one had a uniqueness as her dad was responsible for creating the turtles.
It was cool that this time the right hand man of shredder was a big businessman. He was basically another Dick Jones but with good people skills as he was able to fool April.
It was rather astounding that the whole let's infect a city with a disease as this was used in amazing spider Man except it would be some formula to alter humans into lizard which also took place in New York City.
Uniforms of the foot soldiers were a unique style that look swat style.

This shredder was in a league of his own as the design makes him look like he's the silver samurai on steroids combined with some wolverine.
Remarkably fast even with that heavy metal suit and superhuman strong. He wasn't even annoyed by the turtles winning most of the climax fight up until the coordinated attack.
