Turtles

A guilty pleasure of one generation; this time in animated form, but it is incredible to remember today what a huge event the movie version was at the time. Today it remains just a decidedly “wtf" picture with cult, unintentionally ridiculous choreography of the action scenes where the actors couldn’t move much inside their costumes and so just wave their arms and legs about and their opponents try to collide with their kicks and punches. And not always successfully, because in their costumes they couldn’t see a thing either. This is still entertaining almost a quarter of a century after it was filmed. (23.08.2014)

The adaptation, which could not have turned out well, turned out really badly. I give it a second star for the fact that when I was ten years old, I eagerly watched the screen and was grateful that someone had brought my childhood darlings to the big screen. However, even back then, something was gnawing at me that it just wasn't right, the turtles were too artificial and Shredder just looked tough. Once acceptable, now embarrassing. (26.03.2007)

Donatello war mein Held :) Seltsamerweise gefallen mir die Spielfilme besser als die ursprüngliche Serie, man muss nur die Urteilsfähigkeit beiseite legen und sich in die Zeit der Grundschule zurückversetzen ;) (26.08.2009)
