The 1990 OG is arguably one of the best comic book movies of all time. Shredder was an absolute badass and his defeat was handled perfectly. The turtles themselves are perfect. Their personalities are unique and charming. There is no CGI bullshit, just pure (unappreciated) stunts, puppetry and choreography using giant rubber suits lol. Casey Jones is fantastic. The only real knock I give the movie is that April is not that attractive. But it's a minor gripe.

This movie was way ahead of its time and is insanely underappreciated.

My only complaint with the film whatsoever is that Donatello is more or less exclusively comic relief. It's more or less the Leonardo and Raphael show, but Michelangelo at least still has two key scenes that give him development and help establish their regard for Splinter. Donny got nothing. Aside from a few jokes, his one contribution of any value to the film was setting up one of those two Mikey scenes, lol.


Speaking of Raphael, I remember watching the movie as a little kid and wondering why Raph wasn't being funny and just being mean.

Only knew the 1987 Turtles before then so I was unaware that was closer to the real Raphael lol.
