nimba tuwtles
Ooooh, dont like that
OwO
yoo hawin a swoke fuddy?
Uwu
Screw animal crossing this is the quality content I have been looking for. NIMBA TUWTLES!
The speech Splinter gave to Raphael about his anger issues was so perfectly done. The tone of the scene with the music and seriousness of Splinter was just jaw dropping they don't do scenes like these anymore with any effort. It's all about comedy these days in movies that the serious scenes seemed rushed
And the fact that that scene is done in shot makes it even more impressive. It’s lit so dark yet it makes you believe that this giant rat is giving an emotional speech to his turtle son. It’s perfectly done.
And Ralph’s expression is so moving, the animatronic work is astounding, to this day it makes me teary.
There’s a recurring theme of allowing your rational mind overcome anger throughout the movie. Every time someone reacts angrily in the movie that character gets into trouble.
Raf storms off and gets beaten up by the foot clan.
Leo charges angrily at shredder and is about to die until Splinter shows up and then Shreddwr reacts angrily to him and gets hurled of a building as a result.
Fun fact: this movie almost wasn't made because of the flop that was the movie Howard the Duck. But the success of this movie actually sparked the super hero genre and comic movies back into film world.
So that means no mcu if there was no nino burbles
If im not mistaken it also had to do with the lack of toys to start. The toy makers wernt getting behind the movie so they didnt make any of the turtles into action figures at first so kids wernt being sold on the movie before it came out. But i could be wrong ill have to go back and rewatch the Toys That Made Us episode.
@Brandon Brooks Yea it was 89 Batman that saved the Super Hero Movie genre in Hollywood
I love both movies very much, but the credit goes to Batman '89.. 100%
I thought it was Masters of the Universe that flopped and that made them cautious to invest in it
THANK GOD this movie exists. The fact that it could have easily not been made terrifies me and we'd never have a nostalgic gem like this. The movie is truly a masterpiece considering what it is based on and we should thank the heavens that all the creators that worked on it just knew exactly how to make this thing right. I mean, I swear to god....the entire film feels perfect. I wouldn't change a thing. It's one of those things that feels like it was just done at the exact perfect time. If it were to be remade, it would never ever be as good as this ever again. And in my honest opinion, I don't even think it is possible to even make a superior turtles movie without henson and barton.
Agreed 100%!!
I just watched the movie the other night for the first time in years and couldn’t have said it any better myself. The only possible change I could think of would just be adding like 10-20 minutes of content lol
Nostalgia is a powerful thing.
I get your point my dude !
But I would add a few moments and bits here and there. Notably, when April's narrating, there's this moment when we see one turtle on a punching-bag, another screaming at the top of his lung on the roof. I'm pretty sure the whole intended sequence would have been awesome and showed more intimate moments.
But I'm being picky, because this movie is top-notch !
@@RomainBenkandil it wasn't a botch. Originally it was Mikey that was isolated and raging, then they changed it bc they thought having Mike going through that would have been too depressing knowing how light hearted and innocent he was. So they cut it short and put Raphael's voice into that shout on the barn roof. They should have kept it original, it would have been better. Another thing was April's apartment where Mikey is cracking jokes. They should have used it instead with deep dialogue to get the characters better known about their past and all. That's about it. The rest was really well done.
I will NEVER forget when I was 7-8 years old (so 1991-92) it was a day before my birthday and my dad came home with this movie on VHS. I had never seen it in theatres but when I watched it I was just absolutely obsessed. I was one of those rare little girls who liked TMNT, even the cartoon. This movie and Secret of the Ooze brings back so much nostalgia for me. I love how you explained all of the excellent details of this film that truly go unnoticed and underappreciated. It is a masterpiece. (also R.I.P. Jim Henson my greatest hero)
Just want to say I have never seen this before on RUclips. We made our RUclips accounts 2 days apart from each other in May 2006. Was kinda funny to see, I don't see many people with 17 year old accounts.
@@Evil_Chronic Don't be a creeper dude.
Fun fact: this film was released two months after I was born in 1990
And I have drawn inspiration from this movie in a project I'm working on now
Raphael screaming "DAAAMN" throughout all of New York City is still one of my all time favorite moments. Fantastic video dude.
I remember that scene when i was a kid
I went to see this movie with my mom (who was a bit overprotective and pretty conservative)when I was like 6. I remember when Raph said that my body got cold cause I thought she was going to make us leave and I was somehow gonna get in trouble for talking her into taking me to a movie with curse words. Luckily it didn’t even register with her and everything was good
the guy in the taxi Is the voice of raphael
Mine is without a doubt when Mikeyy says a fellow chucker heyyyyy. I saw it in theaters 35 years ago for my 8th birthday with my friends and ma and I still remember it to this day. My mom was like that wasn't a half bad movie and that made it even better. And your right he did a really good video on this and yes hollywood ruined the sequels because mom's complained that it was 2 violent. This was an outstanding flick and kids these days will never understand this movie and that sucks.
The Scream King, ole Raphael in 1990, topped only by the Big Show in 2015.
For the past two years I’ve been saying “Cricket? You gotta know what a crumpet is to understand cricket!” And idk what exactly triggered that memory of the Turtles film but I’m glad someone’s finally giving this movie some love. Good job Matt I dig the review man.
I remember when I moved to Australia and had a crumpet and there was cricket on TV. I then had a sudden realization that you DO need to know what a crumpet is to understand cricket. lol it hit hard and I started laughing.
the practical effects are actually insane, not only to the costumes look good, but they have enough mobility that the actors could fight effectively in them.
This movie was really grounded in reality, and full of real world problems.
Agreed. Real danger and real problems counterbalanced by so much heart.
Most of my childhood nostalgia movies don't hold up (Ghostbusters 2, Mortal Kombat), but this film is legitimately solid. It's not a masterpiece, but it is thoroughly enjoyable and well made. The critics once again demonstrate how out of touch they've always been.
@@dereksbooks I have to disagree... it is a true masterpiece.
This was one of New Line Cinema's earlier successful films back then, when they were a smaller company. It was a good choice for them
You and the guy with a moustache are the same person right?
@@fOk0dAzZ I really hope that is the case. I also saw one with the name "Just Some Guy with Half a Mustache". This has become a giant meme at this point.
Ay lmao you here too? xD
It was actually the birth child of Hong Kong studio Golden Harvest, whose head of production, Tom Gray, green lit the movie when no other studio would, envisioning that the movie’s budget would not cost much money because the movie would be just four of their own stuntmen in costume. When they reached the end of their budget for the film, New Line picked up a lot of the cost. Either way it was a great choice for New Line to back this film, and the success of TMNT put them on the mainstream map. www.hollywoodreporter.com/features/teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-untold-785653
@@surewin1773 thats probably why they didn't get good reviews cause its an overseas production. Which in all reality what other production company was more suitable to make it come together but golden harvest? they and other Hong Kong companies are the foundation for kung fu in movies.
I seriously thought that I was the only one who legitimately loved this movie enough for it to be one of my favourite movies ever made. Thanks for making this video!
Nah I deadass didn't know this movie was actually apparently so hated until watching this video.
Literally everyone I grew up with from older cousins to friends my same age loved the hell out of this movie.
When a movie review is done with heart and genuine enthusiasm for the movie, it will always make you want to see the movie too. I guess I'll be watching this movie, Matt. Thank you.
And how was it to you?
@@Carstuff111 the movie is on HBO max
i already had
As a kid I used to always say Turtles 2 was my favorite movie. Probably because its more goofy and had the ninja rap song. But as I got older I realized how much more amazing the first movie truly was. Thanks for this nostalgia trip.
well 2 was specifically made for kids. At least they kept the suits and darker imagery for most of it though.
@@dash4800ya it’s wayyyyy kiddier.
I fee that
@@dash4800 wait they kept the suits?
something feels different about them
This dude deadass made a 40 min documentary about the 1990 Ninja Turtles movie.
What’s your point
And he did a great job
And? ....The movie is badass
@@jmuk3571 I know what's his point.Do you want to know?
@@darthbrutalicious6066 I don’t need to know anything from you
Mike says damn too. “Ninja kick the damn rabbit!”
26:30 I love hearing Matt nerd out about Camera angles. We kinda forget that is how he made a living.
How so? Who is he? What was he? A cinematographer!?
Highly disappointed you didn't mention how much of a banger the opening theme is
the entire score is solid gold
@GsmackJoeypads Yeah the soundtrack is amazing. Shredders theme is sick.
And although the second movie isn't as good the soundtrack and songtrack are even better!
@@Ometecuhtli Close but not better.
Reviews tend to not talk about music to avoid copyright and because they think it's too subjective, but I think it's a really important part of the quality of the film. The music is so good cover to cover.
Also, April is freaking hot in this movie.
Kinda disagree
Judith Hoag over Megan Fox any day, Judith is still gorgeous.
yea she does it for me way more than the more conventionally pretty actresses they would get to replace her in 2 and 3. I think it's the tough sass with a great balance of warmth and comedy she brought to the character. Hot 4 sho. Kinda reminds me a bit of an Elaine from Seinfeld type.The other actresses were bland
@@enterthecringe7552 "tough sass with a great balance of warmth and comedy she brought to the
character. Hot 4 sho. Kinda reminds me a bit of an Elaine from Seinfeld type" SPOT ON!!!! Couldn't have said it better!! Judith did an amazing job being April
Honestly one of the best movies ever made imo. Awesome martial arts, a truly heartfelt plot, dope music, and the best pacing and atmosphere in the franchise.
Two things.
A lot of movies had a huge part in the way I lived my life as a kid. Back to the future 1-2. Halloween 1-2. Terminator 1-2(honestly I didn’t even mean to pick a bunch of great movies with great sequels). This movie was an absolutely huge part of my life. God when me and my best friend would go to Chuck E. Cheese’s, we ran, I MEAN RAN instantly to the left and dashed for the tmnt arcade game (when someone was playing it we almost cried). I used to think that this movie was just a silly kids movie that I would no longer enjoy watching. And I went a long time without watching it. But A few years back I was feeling nostalgic when I saw it on Netflix or something similar. Within probably five minutes it all came back to me. And I realized that it was way different then I remembered. This is a tragically under appreciated movie. And I’ve actually seen a lot of positive reviews of this movie on RUclips. To me. When I think of the ninja turtles, I think of this movie and these turtles. They felt so real to me. I loved the cartoon from the 80s as well. And that brings me to my other point and also a bit of a disappointment with this video.
You did an incredible job man. So many of the things you brought up I agreed with so much. Right down to the voice actors voicing these characters perfectly and in a lot of surprising spots most wouldnt think we’re important. But I was shocked you didn’t really touch up more about the incredible third act at the farm house. First there’s the scene with Rafael and Leo in the bathroom. Everything down to the look on rafs face. I have no idea how They we’re able to pin his emotions of embarrassment and love for his brother so well, even with the legend Jim Henson helping. Still to this day it’s a really touching scene.
But then there’s the meditation scene shortly afterwards, in my opinion the best part of the entire movie. Where they find out splinter is still alive. And he tells them how proud of them, his sons, he is. And tells them how important it is to stick together. Afterwards you’re watching four fully costumes people, almost puppets, expressing all these emotions and it doesn’t feel the least bit weird to cry watching that scene. The way each one of them have a little bit different reaction to it, but all of them in tears. It was honestly nothing short of masterful. It held up 30+ years later. Which is just incredible. I really thought you were gonna talk about that scene some and I was excited to hear your opinion on it.
they used motion capture to get the realistic expressions
too bad he just said it was a little weird and a little less saddening than weird and glossed over such a scene
I grew up with the cartoons and I still loved this movie. It was really well done, and deserves a hell of a lot higher score than MK. There was a ton of heart soul and loved poured into it and you can tell.
This movie was locked into my deep memory until now. Holy moly this was such a good movie
It's a great film! I saw this in 90' at the cinema with my father, and it's one of my fondest memories. I can still remember both myself and my father being surprised by how dark and serious the film was at times, but I appreciated at the time, despite barely being seven years old. So many perfect moments in this, but if I had to pick my favorite, it would be the entire farm house sequence and Splinter meditation/bonfire scene.
Just rewatched it tonight. One of my favourite movies of all time. I was happy to see it still held up to today. Glad to see others understood its greatness.
I will not stand for the slander of Secret of the Ooze. "Go ninja go ninja go" is one of the best movie scenes of all time
Go Ninja Go is the best song to come out of the 90's
Secret of the Ooze is fine if you look at it as a live action adaptation of the 80s cartoon. It matches the tone and comedy of that show. It just stands in contrast to the movie that came before it because that movie took all the best elements of the cartoon and the gritty comics and made something greater than the sum of it's parts.
@@Channel9001 My opinion has always been TMNT 1990 best Secret of the Ooze is "fun, but toned down" everything after other than the Turtles meeting Batman in the animated film is forgettable.
stop dancing with Vanilla Ice. STOP DANCING WITH VANILLA ICE!!!
NO, NINJA! NO, NINJA! NO!!!
Secret of ooze was okay it had nothing on the first one and the third was terrible you can tell they just rushed that out the first movie was dark and gritty and I loved it when it came out I was a big fan of the turtles back than when they first came out that was my older cousin my brother and I were really into it with the comics the toys the cartoons and the original trilogy came out it was awesome
The actor for Raphael asked my mom out in high school
Really dang
@@channel-re5uq You mean DAMN!!!
She should’ve said yes
“Damnnnn”
Whoa that’s epic
I was 7 when this first cartoon came out and was a part of the boom. This movie is one of my top favorite movies to this day. This movie was and is FANTASTIC. So dark and gritty but with so much fun and love. It kept well to the source material but adapted to the screen well. And the suits are FANTASTIC!
Thank you for this great review!
14:07 I always interpretted that Mikey didn't wanna think or talk about it, so he straight ignored it. Not that he didn't care, but it hurt so much. Later in the film when they're sitting at the camp fire, he's crying the hardest
That’s how I always saw it. People tend to use jokes during hard times to hide how they’re feeling
Exactly. In fact, a lot of deleted scenes of the farm shows Mikey having difficulty dealing with it, and was actually the one who shouted Splinter's name (which they dubbed in Raph's voice). It's also why everyone seems relieved when Mikey makes a turtle wax joke, like he's back to his old self again.
I interpreted it as Mikey just straight up not listening to Donny cause all that was on his mind was the Pizza. I doubt he even knew he was talking.
That's the right interpretation dude. Through the movie it's clearly shown how he and the other turtles care about their mentor/father figure, it's just that he doesn't want to broach the subject at that time.
"Pour one out for a Footsie"
Honestly, I'd been hearing how terrible this exact movie was, and I was taking those statements and the still images of the suits that are all over the Internet at face value. Somehow I didn't realize that the film came out in 1990, and I obviously hadn't actually seen much footage of the film, but damn, Matt, you made me want to skip work to watch this movie.
Worth the watch. Hell I watch it at work from time to time. Gotta love that PG rating!
@@leonlionheartly I'll give it a shot!
Is it from RT or something? I think most fans agree it's the best TMNT movie of the bunch, it's definitely a fan favorite for a reason
The film is bloody brilliant
Who says it's terrible? It's been a fan favorite for decades at this point, lol.
This is genuinely one of my favorite videos you've done, I'd love to watch you just talk about superhero movies. Things like the Limewire documentary and this that are just long form video essays on seemingly random topics that you just enjoy and find fascinating are always so entertaining, you really just see the passion come out during them.
And on that note: I'd pay money to see you analyze Spiderverse man.
I'm so glad you pointed out that one flaw in Batman VS TMNT. People seem to forget how well of fighters the turtles are, and to see them get their asses handed to them by Batman kinda irked me the wrong way.
us two years ago where’s league of failures. Us now yeah i like turtles
4 years ago? where's actual champion spotlight
But now? Hehe warhammer.
@@pgfontana97 yeah :/
This movie was my childhood. Though was 10 years before I was alive
What does the movie being older than you have to do with it being your childhood
@@iggy7893 when people often talk about their childhood. They usually associate that with the stuff that came out during that time period.
I was one year old when this film came out. It pretty much helped define my childhood.
What likely helped was that my folks were way more open-minded than most others.
This is literally one of my fav films. The fact you made this video makes me so freaking happy! Thank you so much for this! You are one of my fav RUclips and this video actually cemented your place in my heart ❤
i have been a long time defender of the 2000s animated tmnt film, but had never seen the 90s live action one. it was really interesting to hear your breakdown of it, im definitely gonna make time to watch it :)
Animated film was great but god damn the 1990 film was just on a dif level in my opinion
You need to watch the first one and secret of ooze ASAFP

Finally a video about the ninja turtles...oh how long I've waited for this moment
High Tide on god
Thank you for this review! You nailed it with every second of this video. This is pretty much how I’ve felt about this masterpiece since I saw it in theaters. We even went to Pizza Hut afterwards where they were giving away the soundtrack on cassette with a meal. Best times ever!
38:00 Their internal struggle of not being able to be a part of human society is something I do enjoy seeing, and the recent Mutant Mayhem really dug into that aspect in the most potent way yet for the characters (even Out of the Shadows tackled it pretty decently). It's not a perspective we get to really see the turtles struggle with in most incarnations for them. They just accept their unacceptance for the most part and go through the other heavy topics of that incarnation's story. It's a refreshing angle to see now and then.
As a kid obsessed with both comics and baseball in the early 90s, the Jose Conseco line between Raph and Casey Jones kills me everytime. I love this goddamn movie so much.
How about Mike's "who's he suposed to be, Wayne Gretzky.. on steroids??"
Matt, this might've been my favorite video that you've ever put out. I've definitely said that at least once before, so your videos keep getting better. I would watch a whole ass series of you doing stuff like this.
Apart from his horrible blasphemy
This movie introduced amazing cinematography to a 6 year old me. Now I'm an animator, still driven to work in the film biz. Thank you brave Directors, Producers, & anyone involved in releasing this AMAZING movie.
Always my favorite! The 1990's live action was a big thrill for me as a kid who wasn't supposed to watch that much violence 😂 It made me dig the original comic books and got me addicted to the bloody version of Ninja Turtles
That in itself is weirdly nostalgic, how protective parents were but they still let us go watch movies like this with them because they knew we would learn about the real world in a useful way. Nowadays parents are overprotective yet somehow not protecting their kids at all.
LOOOOOOVED this movie.
The costumes are so great I couldn't believe they were suits, especially the second movie with even better costumes imo.
🙄 the second one was worse in costumes
@@Soulaliss strongly disagree
ΔL·ZΞΔL I’ll still think first was the better of the two✌️😙
@@Soulaliss The second one had better animatronic faces, but looked more cartoony and silly. The 3rd one had the worse suits.
@@Soulaliss The first one is objectively better, but the 2nd one is great fun. The third one is trash.
You know it's quality content when your almost to the end of the video and just realized you've been watching it for nearly an hour
I always love the vibe you have while talking about things you like, it's good to see you again, and I hope you're doing okay.
Man the moment the opening theme for the movie started I was taken back to when I was little watching this for the first time. Loved this movie and I'm glad to see it getting love. So many of my friend refuse to even give it a chance because of how it looks or the rap its gotten. Great video man, points well made.
I just want to say that I love that you added the music from the movie throughout the relevant scenes being shown or talked about. I don't think I've seen a reviewer be that technical before. It's appreciated and it's awesome.
"I deliver a message"
*SLAPS*
"Shut it"
I was 8 when this came out . i remember seeing the trailer and then seeing the movie in the theater a couple times. It shaped the rest of my life from that time forward👏 i love hearing someone who was born after its release geek out about it the same way i do lol. There's like a brotherhood of people who saw this movie as a kid and got changed 😂 i wish you got to see it in the theater , it was completely life changing❤
And from what scientists are doing with human animal dna, just for stem cells, the Tmnt might not be far away from reality. Should we rejoice or cringe??
This is an awesome video Sir! I'm still partway watching while it type so excuse me if you touch these points later but there is so much heart to this movie. The emotions of Mikey when in the barn towards the end, the chills I get when watching it or clips STILL after all this time, hard to replicate and nothing does replicate it nowadays. I'm still bummed that all the missing footage hasn't been added back in, I did have the novelisation that detailed for example the training scene and how they learn to "feel" more than fight regarding the reversed bandanas etc.
First, how does this have so little views?!?
Second, Matt please keep making this type of videos Everytime you feel like it, hearing you talk about the things you love is really amazing.
Stay safe!
My wife left me
Ok, this is based
a bunch of people have said stuff like this already but man somehow a review of the 1990 tmnt movie was exactly what i needed on this depressing day. i love how you talk about movies, even or especially when it's funky ones like these. thanks for making these videos!
When Raph is screaming in dispair in the lair I think it was because he felt it was his fault Splinter was gone, when he took April back home a Foot Ninja followed him, so he feels responsible.
I really love it when you do these videos. When I start them I always think "holy shit almost 40 minutes, I'm never gonna finish that" But the way you talk about movies and other things you love are just so compelling, that I can't help but watch the whole thing. I know this must take a ton of work, and a lot of time, and I'm just so happy you put in that time and effort because damn it pays off. I've always loved your videos, and have mostly watched a lot of the league of legends videos, but damn if this isn't some of my favourite content on your channel. Much love and appreciation from here
Wow this brought back some memories, time to make the wife sit down and watch this masterpiece. Thanks for this Matt, not only did you make a great video but you've reminded me of a great piece of my childhood.
It's definitely in my Top 5 movies as well. This breakdown video was wonderful to watch too. Thanks for doing it!
The 2000's TMNT Tv Show introduced me to the Turtles. 10/10 show
Matt, you're the greatest for this video. Holy moly. I grew up during this time, and seeing this movie so young was mind-blowing. I adore it still. I will always say though that the introduction of The Shredder? Yeah, THAT is how you reveal an antagonist. Holy shit. That man was so scary when I was young. Not OOGABOOGA scary, but you could just sense how menacing he was; from the look of awe the teenagers have to his fucking commanding voice and presence. I'll never forget how I felt watching it for the first time.
anything: *happens*
Matt while editing: lets add an *AAAAAAAAAAHHH*
Okay?
Thank you 😩😩 This is one of my all time favorite movies and one of the first I ever remember watching, I somehow have it on dvd TWICE and I’m honestly not even mad
My favorite line from this movie is April’s “am I behind on my Sony payments again?” It’s a funny line on its own, and Hoag’s delivery and nervous smile and laugh are fantastic.
Fun Fact: The barn scene when Raphael yells Splinters name into the night was actually Michaelangelo. I've seen on other RUclips videos on how there was a story arc on Mickey taking Splinters loss the hardest. He also has an extended training scene in the barn where he was shown breaking boards but the final cut is just him hitting the bag. Plus the rooftop scene when Casey and Splinter look up you can can hear Michaelangelo fighting Shredder solo
Taken str8 from the comics as well, back then it was a concerted effort to show a more serious side of Mikey.
It makes sense too. When Donnie asks him what it would be like to not have Splinter Mikey just ducks the question. If those scenes of him taking the loss the hardest were in the final cut then it would have been a great character arc for Mikey.
Amazing review Matt, aboslutely loved it ! I was wondering if you ever saw Rise of The TMNT, the fairly recent cartoon made by Nickelodeon ? It's really well written and even if it's more directed towards the kids, it has a TON of more mature sequences and I'm sure you'd enjoy some of it !
Mom and dad taped it when it was on cable. And then dad bought the Manhattan Project for the Nintendo.
The scenes with Splinter hit different since the loss of my dad and naturally getting older.
“All fathers care for their sons.”
-Splinter
Peace fam 😭😭😭😭
My FAVORITE movie of all time!
I can watch this over and over and I’ll never get tired of this film
It fills me with so much nostalgia and happiness and emotion
I don't know where you got the idea this film has a bad rep. Critically, sure. But the film was ALWAYS beloved by audiences and TMNT fans.
Yea that surprised me too when he said that. But yea amongst the public and world wide, Ppl love The Turtles!
I'm so unbelievably glad, satisfied, and fulfilled you brought up Raph's scream when Splinter went missing
Amazing job on this video man. I’m in awe with how You captured the perfect amount of emotion that was overlooked in this amazing movie. One of my all time favorites for every single reason you mentioned. This was full of deep and insightful reflections on life. And it all came from a wise rat. It’s insane how much I loved this.
This is an incredibly well done review of this film & its history. Great work!
I laughed when one of my college friends said this was her favorite movie.
I may have been wrong. Maybe I should actually watch it.
You should just watch in RUclips
Favorite movie of the franchise? She's right.
Favorite superhero movie? Maybe she doesn't know that many.
Favorite all time? Definitely should watch more movies.
@@Ometecuhtlior maybe people just have different opinions, how strange
Even tho I didn't grow up with these ninja turtles, I still love the turtles. And when I saw this movie I loved them even more.
Thank you for your dedication!!! You my friend are a legend for this too! True appreciation shines thur this video. I'm 43 and this is in my top 5 lifetime films too. I can die happy knowing I'm not alone!
4:36. LOL. That meme made me become a subscriber to your channel, dude.
I watched this movie with my gf recently, and we both loved it.
COWABUNGA!!!
This isn't my favorite comic based movie, It's just my favorite movie. Love everything about it from all of the music to the mistakes in filming and even Danny's part in the story. I'll never get tired of watching it. Watching this video is the 1st time I ever took notice to Donnie's human teeth.
Ah yes, I remember watching those when I was like 4
I remember nothing about them other than that I liked them
One thing to note and a common misconception is that the TMNT in this movie are NOT crime fighters. They didn't fight The Shredder to stop his crime wave or to prevent world conquest but for personal reasons (rescuing their father). Stopping the ninja crime wave was a by-product of their actions, not the goal. Had the Foot not messed with Splinter, none of this movie would've happened.
I was born in '91 as well and I've always loved the turtles. I even had a turtle dance I'd do whenever tmnt came on back when I was like, 3 or 4 years old. 😂
Can you do a tmnt animated shows review i would like to see that
Based on the 1990 film, Leonardo is my favorite turtle.
MagikarpUsedFly is the best thing that happend to me in 2020. Thx man, love your work, keep it up!
I know you may not get as many views on this type of video. But I absolutely love these. It has such a nice flow and mixture of comedy and review.
Wait... Girl turtle...THAT WAS A THING?!?!...so glad I only watched the first one
Lol that female turtle was from a very bad 90s TV show.
I own the 3 tmnt movies in a DVD series
Dude I love ypu. This movie was a big part of my childhood and It's so awesome you did a review, I know it's a slim chance but I would love if you covered the sequel cause you did such a good on this video!
rewatched this video more times than I can ever count, probably because I love this movie and your content, but this is a golden video 11/10
Is life of a RUclipsd dark mane ever happening or was that a joke
I remember him saying in an old post that the files they recorded for the video were corrupted,so they had to film it again.I don't know however if they actually filmed it or not,maybe they postponed for the future or maybe they didn't have any time or more chances or the patience to start the whole thing from the beggining.
the files were corrupt
Is this the weekly upload we were promised?
Hah kidding, see ya next month
Try make a well cut video of over half an hour yourself in a week (:
Punocchio try to take a joke (:

It's not that he doesn't have heart. It's that he doesn't wanna think about not having Splinter around.
When I saw the clip of Leo getting his head dunked into the aquarium it suddenly occurred to me that turtles can breath through their anus. I wish such thoughts would be polite enough to not pop in unbidden.
I thought it was donnie.
@@bjen2607 Maybe, I'm colorblind so blue and purple are completely indistinguishable to me so there is a very high chance you are correct
Hilarious awesome review. One of the most disrespected and slept on faithful comic book movie adaptations. This shit does slap. Raphael is a total fucking bad ass. Casey Jones is a psychotic big dick alpha. The Sony payment joke is hilariously racist. The claustrophobic joke is hilariously homophobic. Shit would never fly today, but is actually low-key funny as hell. Stuff I didn’t notice when I was a kid
Best review ive seen on this video. Well done
Yeah, definitely one of my favorite childhood classics man. Thank you for making this well-informed, passionate, critique video.👌🏿😎🌴🌙
Bad rep? Anyone who thinks that is a low IQ amoeba with no taste in art. The first TMNT movie was borderline perfection. It was literally the perfect mix between the original comic books and the childish cartoons. Furthermore it's pretty much the only movie that did the Foot Clan right. That being said is anyone else here because of that trash that Seth Rogen pumped out after he got way too high to remember what he was working on?
Absolutely correct with the correlation between the comics and the cartoons. And no, I'm not here because of the Seth Rogen disaster. Full episodes of the 80s TMNT show have been popping up in my feed...and I have been watching them because, well, trip down memory lane. And then this video showed up
Still waiting for the second episode of warhammer 40k
When the lockdown is done, I'll work on it so I can finish filming.
Until then, please for the love of god DO NOT play 40k with your friends during this time. Touching models and exchanging dice DOES NOT help with what's going on.
I could not have said it better myself,
Great review man!!
40 mins just flew by. Great vid.
