Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III

When I saw this in the theaters when I was 9 in 1993 (you do the math) and honestly, as a kid, I thought it was OK. But then I saw it again recently (a few years ago), and it made Batman and Robin seem uplifting by comparison. This film is crappy when compared to the first (which was a masterpiece) and the second (which was OK) combined. Maybe kids will like it, but me, I found that just sitting alone with my own thoughts are more creative than watching this sad, pathetic excuse for a TMNT movie. By the way, don't the turtles seem more plastic now than ever before? C-

Despite the negative critical reception of TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES II: THE SECRET OF THE OOZE, the film was still a financial success and another TMNT film was announced, but this would be the last film to be released by New Line Cinema. The film was titled TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES III or TMNT III or TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES III: TURTLES IN TIME. The plot revolves around the "Sacred Sands of Time", a mystical scepter which transports the Turtles back in time to feudal Japan, where they become embroiled in a conflict between a daimyo and a group of rebellious villagers. The plot of this movie just drives me crazy a little bit, but the story is a little bit incoherent in a few areas, but it can also get really amazing and this movie should have gotten more praise and acclaim that the first film did and I really don't know why people hate this movie. The turtles look stupid as hell in this film and the visuals are impressive, and part of the reason why I think the turtles look as bad as they do is because and they are just fantastic and simply amazing. The music is composed by John Du Prez and it is spectacular. The visuals and designs of this film is just amazing and really cool and spectacular. The acting is okay and that, along with the music is what keeps me from hating this movie in the worst way I can possibly can. Corey Feldman and the original TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES cast returns to do their voices of their respective turtles and it sounds amazing. Paige Turco plays the role of April O'Neill and she does a great job once again. Elias Koteas plays the role of Casey Jones once again and he does a great job once again and he is just incredible this time, especially after being absent from the second film. After this film, another film was in development for a release in 1997 titled "TMNT: The Next Mutation", the film would introduced new turtles, but this project was cancelled after trying to get it made. So, in 2007, both Warner Bros. Pictures and The Weinstein Company teamed up to bring us the 100% computed generated imagery version of the four heroes, simply titled TMNT.

Third instalment to the franchise. Funny how it got the lowest rating out of the three flick's. STOP OVER THING IT!... IT'S A FUN MOVIE FOR LAUGH'S!. You forget it's a turtle ninga movie. You forget they are mutated. You forget they are TALKING TURTLE'S!!!... WHAT THE HELL!, ENJOY THE FLICK!. I love the fact that the turtles have fun where ever they are. The energy is positive and the one-liners are fun. Go-on, snap out of it and chill.. COWABUNGA DUDE!

The turtle animatronics look more creepy than the last two movies, the fight scenes are a joke, the writing is stupid, and the one liners are crappy. How can anyone try to take this film seriously? It makes no possible scenes whatsoever and was just an excuse for the turtles to not only dress up like samurai warriors, but to give tired, flat jokes to make people laugh. Trust me, the film is that bad.

This has one of the coolest concepts of any TMNT story. Sending the bros back to Japan has so much potential. Just not this time around. Feels like they were trying to ride the Turtles in Time wave from the arcade game, and it's a solid attempt. Even the time scepter is a reference the Mirage #8 comic. Also they brought back Casey Jones and his has some decent scenes in the movie. And I do appreciate Mikey's arc in the movie. I've always thought Mikey was at his best when he's not being the funny guy. At least in the movies.

Like a lot of prepubescent children in 1989 or 1990, my imagination was captured by this new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fad. I had all the toys, seen the shows and movies. So my cousin and I were super excited for another. A third movie. What could be better than this? Anything. Almost anything would have been better than this movie. I'm only a fan of this movie for the nostalgia. And the pizza. Can't go wrong with pizza. Just avoid this movie. The previous movies were full of good puns and good times. This movie just seems to keep falling flat. Flatter than a pizza. The plot is thin, the costumes are horrible. Someone was slacking. Don't buy the movie. Order in a pizza instead.

Well, I think that the 3rd entry is not that bad. I mean, it at least had them doing martial arts in Japan. I mean, I guess it could have had them doing yoga at a temple. I do think they should have tried to pay Judith Hoag whatever they wanted to get her to reprise April in this and II, because she made a better April O'Neill. I think they needed to also have Elias Koteas as Casey from the first. Have him going back to Japan with them. If all else, should have followed this up to a direct sequel to II, having Master Tatsu as the leader of the foot and them getting revenge on the turtles for getting rid of shredder, and bring back Danny and Kino as friends. Then one of them wonders should he be part of the foot or aligned with the Turtles. What I really hate is Stuart Wilson's outlandish accent, and if that's his real voice, gets some halls cough drops. Either way, see it as what not to do. Although, the ZZ Top wasn't a bad touch

The reason there are no white specks on the end titles of the UK release of this film is due to me. I coloured them all out using a black marker when I worked for Capital FX in 1993. Capital FX was a small special effects and titling company in a square in Soho. They also did the fire sequence on the end titles of the TV series London's Burning. I was introduced to the man who made Superman fly. I would run around Soho picking up and delivering films to and from the various companies involved, Warner Bros, etc. with a mobile phone and an account at the sandwich shop and to studios in Perivale. --- by Jerome, computer coder, author, and voter of 1,000 films.
