    Too weak for a theatrical release but too expensive for a straight-to-video. Also the script is terrible.

    The Turtle Teens travel in time, in a strange Back to the Future meet Shogun riff in this weakest of the three original flicks. Weak fights, lame jokes and pop culture references, and no real charm or magic, make for a mockery of even the hit cartoon.

    Quite a bit sillier than the other TMNT movies, this film is still a fun romp for major Turtles fans like myself.

    This one went a little crazy for me.. even as a kid... I didn't like the new April and I thought it was a clumsy time travel.

    April O'Neil finds a scepter and is sent back in time to feudal Japan when a man from feudal Japan comes to present New York City with the same scepter. The turtles take the scepter and travel back in time to save April when the turtles arrive in feudal Japan.

    ok this like number two is bad but its better than number 2 as its just ever so slightly more entertaing. the time travelling was stupid but i guess as this is a turtles film it can be taken. i did like some of the fight scenes but theres no killing despite their weapons they dont use them which i dont like. the film however is worth watching if youve scene all the others...

    Not as good as the first two and it kind of took a very different turn for the general TMNT storylinnes.

    A watchable sequel featuring the return of Elias Koteas as Casey Jones from the first movie, which makes it all the more watchable.

    I think of all of the movies this one is the one I remember least. I do know I liked all of the 3 turtle movies put out. I know they go to china or something. It's just a cute family movie like the other ones.

    as a kid this movie was fun. didnt like the puppetry as much as the first 2 movies... specially splinter. the whole time travel bit was a nice idea sending the turtle back to where all the ninjas and samurais live :)

    This film was probably the least entertaining of the three, but it is still a great addition to the film series.

    The story is pretty good and it takes a chance on the time travel concept. Unfortunately, it doesn't really delve too deep with it, like the changing of history or the the consequences of time travel itself. The main focus of the story ends up being concentrated on the feuding clans in ancient Japan. Definitely a great period for the turtles to perform their martial arts magic. As mentioned earlier, this is a nice tale for the turtles, but it still felt a little off-track from the original turtle stories.

    The acting is nice once again. Vivian Wu is beautiful and it was nice to see the return of Elias Koteas as Casey Jones. Its just too bad that the Casey Jones character wasn't utilized to his full potential. Elias does play two different characters in this film though, and he performs them both nicely.

    Once again the turtles are done with costumes and animatronics, which I will take over CG any day. The costumes did take a hit though. They did not look as good as the first two films did. The same can be said about the animatronics. The mouth movements didn't match the words as smoothly as the first two either. Also, the voices seemed to take a dive as well. Although, they were still good, I had a harder time distinguishing the personalities of all, but Raphael.

    The action is up to par with the second film and does a nice job of involving the turtles' weapons in the fights.

    This is another great addition to the ninja turtle series and fans of the first two should definitely enjoy this one as well. The soundtrack is also pretty rocking. Any movie with "Tarzan Boy" by Baltimora is worth checking out.

    Almost everyone who played the turtles in the previous films has changed except for Mark Caso from the second who returns as Leonardo and the ever loyal Brian Tochi as the voice of Leonardo, Corey Feldman returns as the voice of Donatello. Elias Koteas returns as Casey Jones and plays an addition character called Whit, his acting is good. Jim Henson's company was not chosen for the costuming of this movie like it was for the first two and that is made quite obvious because of the massive changes to the costumes. This time they are more ugly, the mouths and the eyes operate better but the costumes are horrible looking compared to the first two movies.

    The turtles are transported back into feutel Japan. Diffently the least in the series, it's still okay to watch like once in year or so, but nowhere near as good as the first two.

    Not as great as the first two but still a personal favorite of mine combining action, humor, a little dash of drama to make a good movie

    Man they fucked up here. I mean the first two rocked the shit and the cartoon is awesome. Even the new movie TMNT is pretty good. But this is just bad. The turtles themselves looked diseased. And it seems like they just threw this together just because they knew all the kiddies would go see it. I myself, only about 6, at the time was one of those unfortunate kiddies. I didn't even like it back then. They couldn't even fool a 6 year old with this crap. The jokes in the first two were corny but they blew in this one. The fight scenes were anti-climactic at best. Fuck this movie. It ruined turtles just like the new cartoons do. Though I have to say that when I was little I thought the turtles were so cool cause after all they were older they were teenagers but now I'm older than them so they don't seem as cool. You know? Well anyway avoid this movie but see the others. Heroes in the half-shell turtle power!

    The live-action TMNT movies were just weird from the start and it was a small miracle it made it this far. Then again, it might have been better if they hadn't.
