Spawned from a lab experiment gone awry, teenage terrapins Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello and Raphael live in the sewers beneath New York. Although their rodent sensei, Splinter, advises against showing themselves above ground, the justice-loving, pizza-eating brothers can't stand idly by while evil Shredder and his minions terrorize the city. With help from intrepid reporter April O'Neil (Megan Fox) and her cameraman (Will Arnett), the Turtles set out to save New York.

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Neither entertaining enough to recommend nor remarkably awful, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles may bear the distinction of being the dullest movie ever made about talking bipedal reptiles.

I can’t think of a recent blockbuster that’s been raked across the coals as much as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Go to Full Review Peter Hartlaub San Francisco Chronicle 03/20/2020
1/4
The whole "TMNT" movie is over-inflated; like watching an otherwise tolerable music video, stretched out to 101 minutes. Go to Full Review Donald Clarke Irish Times 03/20/2020

A shockingly boring, endlessly unimaginative advertisement for pizza, soft drinks and the capitalist ideal. Go to Full Review JD Duran InSession Film 08/19/2024

This version of TMNT doesn’t quite have the heart or development that keeps you as engaged or entertained throughout. It does some parts well but mostly it falls flat. Go to Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review 07/29/2022
0.5/4
Indeed, motion capture and a push toward photo-real animation result in rather gross heroes (with nostrils), particularly in the case of Splinter, whose slimy quality incites some latent Bubonic anxiety. Go to Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse 02/01/2021

Perhaps I'm overthinking a movie about Ninja turtles, but the film wants you to underthink and that's the problem. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Keivais W @RT54929856 14h Good movie I really love it I like shredder and his suit and the turtles See more Felipe B @Dexter475 Jul 2 I loved this movie! It kept me entertained from beginning to end. My wife wasn't a fan, but I love her and now she is! My rating: 1000/10!Cowabunga See more Daniel C. @dannythedan Jun 17 The best of all time See more America I @RT34958892 Jun 15 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is currently the number-one movie in America — a development largely viewed like it’s a plot by the evil Shredder himself. Technically directed by Jonathan Liebesman, this blockbuster reboot bears the stamp of its superstar producer, Transformers maestro Michael Bay: a sturdy children’s-toy concept sits uncomfortably alongside destructive urban combat and awkward double entendres about turtle erections. Garnering bad reviews from both film critics and nostalgic fans, it nonetheless displaced its direct competitor, the much, much better-liked Guardians of the Galaxy, to seize control of the box office. Cowabungled, dude. See more Oaklee D @ODie63 May 9 Perhaps the ugliest/most terrifying version of the turtles I think I have ever seen. Story wise there is nothing new here. See more BANNER B @Banner-Blair May 8 Not a fan of the origin, but other than that pretty good See more Read all reviews
