Customer Reviews of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III
Give and Take The first Turtles movie was great in the fact that it took on the tone of the comics rather than the TV show (more grim, more adult). The second, after much backlash from parents, went in the total opposite direction and turned it into camp. This installment is a nice ballance of the two.
Granted, the costumes are not up to par with the first two, and the plot is not the most original (nor feasible), but they take a back seat to the jokes. The first two TMNT movies focused more on plot and action with an occassional joke to keep things light. Writer/director Stuart Gillard's time travel story, while not the strongest, opens the door to many jokes and gags, which is what makes this movie stand out among the others. It's a nice change of pace, in my opinion.
Kudos to Elias Koteas in this film (he deserves to be the first in the credits). His 15th century counterpart isn't the best, but he makes up for it when Casey Jones is forced to "babysit" four ancient Japanese warriors in modern-day New York (favorite bit is still the hockey scene).
For those who were more interested in plot, this is not the best place to start in the series, but if you enjoy a good line of jokes and gags, I'd definitely recommend this one!
could have been better...
This movie might not have added up to TMNT 1&2, but it is good in it's own way. True, Casey Jones had a very minor role, it didn't take place in New York, the idea of going back in time seemed a bit weird, Kevin Clash did not return to do Splinter, the acting seemed a bit childish at times, and it was not as dark as the first two movies. However, being a long time fan of Ninja Turtles, I can somewhat overlook those flaws. The humor was a little cheezy but in a funny sort of way. One definate plus to TMNT 3 is that the turtles used their weapons more than they did in the TMNT 2. Also, "Turtles in Time" takes a break from the original plot and makes for a new adventure. A year ago, my review of this movie was somewhat negative due to being 5 years since I watched it last. Seven people gave feedback toward my previous review and found it helpful. I appreciate those feedbacks but I recently watched TMNT 3 again and have come to like the movie for what it is. Though "Turtles in Time" should not have been an end to the series, the movie is still entertaining to watch in my opinion. As for the DVD version, the features aren't very impressive. If you still own the VHS version, don't bother replacing it with the DVD unless your VHS copy has worn out over the years. Apparently a 4th TMNT movie is coming out in early 2004. I don't know whether it will be animated or live action but that should give Ninja Turtle fans something to look foward to next year. Hopefully, the 4th movie will be geared more towards teens as well as adults unlike the previous sequels which were mainly for die-hard Ninja Turtle fans only.
STILL FUNNY!
THIS MOVIE IS NOT SO BAD AS EVERYONE SAID IT WAS. IT'S A GREAT MOVIE WHICH HAS EVERYTHING AND IS'NT AS BORING AS THE FIRST TWO. IT'S A GREAT MOVIE!
