This was one of the better all around reboots to come out of Hollywood in a long time. I loved the turtles growing up and was beyond skeptical when I heard that they were going to reboot this. When I first saw the trailers, I got even more skeptical because the turtles looked totally jacked up and their faces just didn't seem right. Regardless, I was excited to see this and although the way that they looked annoyed me, that annoyance wore off as the movie went on. Besides, the awfulness of how Splinter looked and the over the topness of Shredder (he was like part Transformer and part Edward Scissorhands) made the annoyance of the steroided up turtles the least of my annoyances compared to how they were. With all of that being said - everything else about the movie was great. The build up was quick paced and easy enough to follow. The action was awesome - especially the whole scene on the snowy mountain. That 15 minutes alone would be worth the price of admission. The comedy was still there - especially from Michaelangelo and they did an awesome job of getting all the turtles the same amount of screen time and showing their different personalities well enough.
I would definitely recommend people checking this out. It will be fun for the whole family. The adults who like them when they first came out will enjoy this as much as the children of theirs that they are taking to see them on the big screen for the first time.
