Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
a little too violent for young kids - martin
After 13 years away the heroes in the half shell are back to their crime-fighting best in this update of the classic Eighties cartoon series. Since defeating their arch enemy The Shredder, our formewr teenage mutant turtles have noew turned their shells on the crime business to become twenty-something slackers. But when New York is threatened by an evil genius Max Winters - voiced by Trekkie and X-man Patrick Stewart - who is raising up an army of ancient monsters, theres only one super-ninja fighting team that can stop him. So the pizza-loving pals are reunited to kick ass again in the name of justice. Leonardo (James Aarnold Taylor) and the rest of the lads our also joined by sidekick April O'Neil (Sarah Michelle Gellar) in their fight to clean up the streets. This is a bit of a mess of a movie really, and now that im older watching it, these new computer generated Turtles are aimed shamefully at small boys aged between the ages of four and nine and it just shows us a moronic glorification of fighting and that the sure way to gain respect from one's peers is to pull a sharp blade on someone. The hope is, presumably, that young kids will be too uncritical to realise any of this.
