okay and i be a fan of the first movie . and and embarrassingly enough and i be sort of a fan of the second one . but this one . okay and first off and there no fluid movement to the turtle at all . they look about a mechanically enhance a those crappy sing robot they use to have at your local chuck e. cheese . in several shot and you can actually see where the turtle mask end and the body suit begin and thereby magically create the illusion that this be a guy in a turtle costume . the splinter costume or puppet or whatever be so . bad . in the first movie and he be nuanced and realistic and but i guess that why the folk at jim henson creature shop make so much . apparently and new line couldn not afford them anymore . the plot be . so ridiculous . the writer send the turtle back in time to ancient japan ( . ) and a place where they do not have any villain from the comic or the cartoon . some japanese guy switch place with them in the present to be baby sat by casey jones and and fish out of water hilarity ensues ( ha ha ha kill me ) . i actually have a theory about this represent i think someone dug through a bunch of crappy action movie script and find one that would work with the turtle and write the turtle into it . it the only thing that make sense to me . and p. s. the joke be . not . anyway and avoid this abomination at all cost . if it mean anything to ya and it rank near the very bottom of my bad movie ever list ( somewhere below the cat in the hat but just above freddy get finger ) .
