We’ve reviewed the film in print and podcast. Now that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is out, we want to know what you think. Spoilers are encouraged in the open comment thread below.

I agree with Germain that the elevator scene is the best in the film, because it breaks out of the simplistic plot to show the characters in a moment of downtime. The plot of the film is simple, and in story, character, and theme Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is structured like a kids movie. But more often than not the tone of the film clashes with that structure. And saying the structure is like a kids movie doesn’t excuse any of the film’s failings. There are plenty of kids movies that are great for kids, and some that are wonderful for all audiences. This is not one of them.
