Review of Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie (2022) by Julde — 22 Sep 2022
This is an incredibly good addition to the TMNT franchise. Leonardo has an incredible character development (from a selfish **** to a responsible team leader) and this Raphael is a surprisingly fresh take on the character (who does NOT constantly angst about wanting to be the leader, but instead criticizes Leonardo out of concern and love for his family).
Mikey and Donnie get plenty of moments to shine. The fight scenes are extremely well choreographed and grand-scale; the character animation is gorgeous (especially the subtext of facial expressions) and all the little, you-blink-and-miss-it eastereggs give this movie so much heart. The humor can be over the top, but the serious moments never suffer under it.
I wish this movie had merchandise for it, (I'd buy it instandly) but the show (sadly) barely even has toys.
