Trivia
Oscar-nominated actor Mako was announced as the voice of Splinter at San Diego Comic Con the day before he died. Fortunately, he had finished the majority of his acting.

Goofs
While April is going through the jungle in the beginning, she sticks her sword between her backpack and her back. However, the sword keeps disappearing and reappearing, and/or keeps changing sides.

Quotes
Raphael: [Leonardo has knocked off the Nightwatcher's helmet, and reveals that the Nightwatcher is actually Raphael. Ralpael mule-kicks him away from him] You are SO smug, y'know that? You think the world revolves around you, don't ya; that we couldn't possibly survive without the mighty and powerful Leonardo to guide us through our problems, huh? Well, I've got a newsflash for ya: we got along just fine without you!
Leonardo: Oh, and THIS qualifies as "just fine?" Dressing up like it's Halloween every night? Risking the safety of our family? I mean, come on! What were you thinking?
Raphael: Don't push it, Leo. You can't leave home and come back expectin' us to fall in line again, like your little soldiers.
Leonardo: HEY, I was TRAINING. Training to be a better leader! For you! Why do you hate me for that?
Raphael: And whoever said I wanted to be led? I'm better off callin' my own shots now, get used to it!
Leonardo: YOU AREN'T READY. You're impatient, and hot-tempered, and more importantly...
[sternly]
Leonardo: I'm better than you.
Raphael: [laughs coldly] Oh, ya know something, big brother?
[pulls out his sais]
Raphael: I'd have to disagree with you on that one.
[he gets into a stance]
Leonardo: Don't do this, Raph.
Raphael: I'm done takin' orders.
[Leo draws his swords and the fight renews]

A wonderful nostalgia

I went into this feature not quite knowing what to expect. I grew up with the turtles and was a huge fan of the comic book, the cartoon series (the original, of course), and the movies (only the first two). Growing up with the first two movies, I was really hoping that this one would be live-action. I will have to say though, that I was not at all disappointed in this feature.

At the beginning of the movie, I was slightly disappointed in who the rivals were. It seemed very far fetched, even for a Ninja Turtles movie. However, about half-way through the movie, I found myself forgetting about the not-quite-so-wonderful way the story line was set up. I'm not going to give away too much, but let's just say that the feud that has existed between Leo and Raph reaches an interesting point in this movie.

Overall, I would have to say that any turtles fan should give this film a shot. Try to not go into it with expectations set by the first two movies. Just think of this as a stand-alone movie, even though it does roughly follow the story-line set by the first two. If nothing else, the CGA is wonderful and the voice acting isn't so bad either.
