Sinopsis(1)
Un científico descubre una fórmula capaz de transformar el ADN humano y el animal. Accidentalmente se transforma en una rata mutante. Este científico, que además es maestro en artes marciales, se recluye para encontrar el antídoto. Casualmente, el fruto de sus experimentos cae sobre cuatro crías de tortuga de río, unas criaturas que se convertirán en héroes con capacidad de lucha y entendimiento (unas más que otras). El Maestro Astilla decide bautizar a las tortugas mutantes con los nombres de sus pintores preferidos: Michelangelo (Miguel Ángel), Donatello, Rafael y Leonardo. El maestro instruirá en las artes marciales a sus jóvenes pupilos, que se encargarán de frenar la ola de crimen que asola la ciudad. April O'Neil, una avezada periodista, llega hasta la guarida de las tortugas y se convierte en su aliada de la superficie. Juntos tendrán que hacer frente a un terrible villano que llega de oriente, el líder de un ejército de mutantes, Shredder. (Lauren Films)

A guilty pleasure of one generation; this time in animated form, but it is incredible to remember today what a huge event the movie version was at the time. Today it remains just a decidedly “wtf" picture with cult, unintentionally ridiculous choreography of the action scenes where the actors couldn’t move much inside their costumes and so just wave their arms and legs about and their opponents try to collide with their kicks and punches. And not always successfully, because in their costumes they couldn’t see a thing either. This is still entertaining almost a quarter of a century after it was filmed.

The adaptation, which could not have turned out well, turned out really badly. I give it a second star for the fact that when I was ten years old, I eagerly watched the screen and was grateful that someone had brought my childhood darlings to the big screen. However, even back then, something was gnawing at me that it just wasn't right, the turtles were too artificial and Shredder just looked tough. Once acceptable, now embarrassing.
