Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles release date is today, August 8, 2014, and already the reviews are in. Generally, the critics are not too pleased with the rebooted version of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2014 full movie. Rotten Tomatoes' site consensus says: "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."
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2014 version is "overall a lazy summer popcorn-flick," says Jordan Hoffman of The Guardian, and that "this iteration of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is a reminder that we should keep our guard up when we suspect creative choices coming from the stockholders' perspective."
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie "is a cowabummer," observes Scott Mendelson at Forbes, "It has nothing to say and little entertainment value beyond arbitrary visceral action beats. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is seriously short on turtle power."
But Ramen Setoodeh is kinder to the turtles as in his article at Variety, he admits that the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie "is such a ridiculous guilty pleasure it will make even non-fans of the animated TV series cheer 'Cowabunga.' Many groupies were wary about this film reboot when it was first announced, but all the bad buzz turned out to be bogus. Director Jonathan Liebesman ("Battle: Los Angeles") and producer Michael Bay have successfully updated the Turtles to 2014."
