    I refuse to go see it for a few reasons:

    1) Corey Felmon is not Donatello
    2) That last two Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies have sucked. (III and then that horrible "spiritual" movie involving spirit battles and another turtle)
    3) Corey Felmon is not Donatello
    4) It is not live action
    5) Corey Felmon is not Donatello

    I saw it and thought it was pretty good. I think an awesome sequel will be on the way sooner rather than latter

    Not being live action worked out for the better overall. Faster ninja movements and other things made ninja movements and speed feel more...ninja-ey?

    the first movie was amazing and... "It remains one of the highest grossing independent films of all time."

    I also enjoyed the second one, but after that not so much. Nothing after that, not even the new TV show, is as good as it use to be.

    I thought the new one was pretty good. Though I was disappointed with the final fight, as the build up was great, but it should of been about 15 or 20 minutes longer I thought to just show a little more action that we've all been waiting for, especially since the first half of the movie was more comedy and plot then action. I also didn't like how they decided to Buffy-ify April in the end cause of who her voice actor was. >.<

    Yeah, I felt exactly the same. I wasn't expecting anything since these aren't really the same personalities I fell in love with as a kid, but I was a little surprised as it was decent. Not a great film by any account, though. I'd already sort of forgotten about it.

    It was alright... I enjoyed the reference of the other 3 movies at the end, and I enjoyed the monster designs, but I did not like: Splinter's voice, how April was designed and how she actually fights now, how Casey Jones used a lacrosse stick at one time and the end fight scene too.

    Out of the 4, the worst, but still good cause it was TMNT

    I'd like to see it but I'd also like to point out three points from Cimanim's post.

    1) Corey Feldman is not Donatello.
    3) Corey Feldman is not Donatello.
    5) Corey Feldman is not Donatello.

    I wasnt excited...i fear change somtimes but i love TMNT...but i didnt see it yet i wouldnt mind but im not sure id pay 8 bucks to see it...unless i had a rag tag crew of four and we all decided to dress up as the turtles and sneak in "ninja" style (and by "ninja" style i mean "beat the crap out of everyone that stands in our way of free entertainment" style) but i've heard good things and i figured the action would be worth checking out.................oh and mikey rules

    It was a little one dimensional, predictable, and had some glaring plotholes, but I left my brain at the door. I just wanted to enjoy something like a little child again. And it worked, too.

    Corey Feldman has only played Donatello twice in any TMNT incarnation, so that's a pretty silly reason to boycott this movie.

    I hope to see it soon.

    Signature by rubah. I think.

    EXACTLY!

    He was Donatello in the only good movies of the series. The last two; Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III and the forth one, which was so horrible, that I cannot find ANY TRACE OF IT on the internet, the movie SUCKS so much that fans have decided that it is not even worth recognising.

    EDIT: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation, is the forth in the series. Don't bother watching it, it sucks major ass. It was simply a poor ass movie that headed an even crappier live action television series.
