Premise
The first Ninja Turtles movie, with guys in rubber suits.
Who should watch
Fans of the cartoon. Someone in need of something unintentionally funny.
Thoughts
As a kid, I thought this movie was cool. Now it has totally dropped off the Cool scale and is high on the Unintentionally Funny scale. Every aspect, from the clothes to the dialogue to the music is so horribly outdated that it is almost a masterpiece.
The singular thing to marvel at is the animatronics from the Jim Henson Workshop. It is obviously not as good as 'Farscape', but it is still quite impressive. The rubber suits were charming like a 1970's Godzilla movie. Despite its bulk, the stuntmen were able to do quite a lot of action in those rubber suits.
What I would change
Nothing.
