Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze Audience Reviews

GazerRise Fantastic!

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
joshfedderson I have to admit the first one is a lot better then this second one, but that doesn't change the fact this one was fun and exciting. The ninja turtles return in this all new adventure about a secret from their past.*SPOILERS BELOW* TMNT 2: The Secret of the Ooze brings back our awesome heroes in a half shell to find a out a mysterious secret from their past that made them so. Discovering their origins from a company called TGRI and from their closest friend and News Reporter April O'Neil the turtles once again come into conflict with the evil Shredder over mysterious green Ooze that transformed the turtles and their master and father Splinter. Only this time Shredder plans on using the Ooze for his own evil purposes and revenge to wipe out the heroes once and for all. This all new adventure brings in new characters as well, a new actress plays April O'Neil and she does an OK job of her role, only I wish she was more involved in the story. A new side kick comes into the picture too, Keno is cool and don't get me wrong he is more ninja then anything but he is not Casey Jones, who is one of my favorite characters, I feel like the directors put Keno in the story just to put in him in it, we don't know much about him other then the fact that he is a young ninja and delivers pizza. I wish Casey were in this story. Then there is Professor Perry who is a vital part of the creation of the Ooze and I like how he gets along well with the turtles. The two monsters, Toka and Razar, are kind of cheesy, the directors made them look tough but in my eyes they were just pushovers who chased the turtles around just to scare them away, Shredder should have destroyed them when he had the chance. I give TMNT: 2 Secret of the Ooze an 8/10 and this is why. The directors should have stuck with the original cast from the first one, especially Casey Jones and his actor. April should have been more involved with the story like the two monsters kidnapping her or something? And the two monsters were cool, but they should have been more vicious and scary then what they were. Don't get me wrong I enjoyed it because I am a TMNT fan and it was creative and good, but it could have been better hence the 8/10 rating I give it. I would encourage you to watch it, it is fun and good but I feel it's not that original.
byson5186 I just finished watching this movie. I thought about watching it, because I recently saw the first one which I also wrote a review on. I also felt like watching it, because you remember how the turtles like pizza and in this one, one of the main characters is the pizza delivery guy, Keno. While watching it, a lot of the movie didn't entertain me that much. It might have a good storyline, dealing with the ooze the turtles mutated from. But, a lot of the movie seemed too kiddish for me. Don't get me wrong, I like a lot of kid entertainment. Like my favorite movie in the entire world, which I also left a review on is a movie called Junior High Spy, even though that movie has bad acting. I also feel like if you want to go to places like Disney World, you still have some of your youth inside. Sometimes if something is too kiddish, it just seems too cheesy to watch and doesn't entertain you as much.Now, there's the first one which is entertaining. I enjoyed the first film, I like the dark atmosphere in the film. I also like how they show the Foot Clan and teen boys from back then entertaining themselves. This movie is the 2nd in the series, and we miss the days when the turtles were stuntmen in costumes. This movie while meant to be a sequel from the first, seemed to leave things out as sequels often times do. I mean, April seems to change in this one. Yeah, she's played by a different actress. But, in this one she lives in a nicer apartment in a nicer area of the city. She also seems to appreciate antiquity in the first, which isn't shown in this one. Also, Danny was a main character in the first film who even hung around April in a deleted ending scene. It doesn't look the same without him, or his Dad Charles Pennington, especially at April's Channel 3 News. It also isn't quite the same without Casey Jones, even though Keno probably replaced his role. The foot also seems different in this film than the first.What else do I want to say. I saw the 3rd one recently, as I have a Blu Ray set with the first 3 TMNT movies. I saw on wikipedia how the 3rd one got mostly negative reviews, including one review of somebody who considered it only entertaining for kids and almost as if that movie was written by kids. I don't think so. The 3rd one seems less cheesy, and it takes us back to 17th Century Japan. Also, I felt like the plot for that movie was hard to understand, even as an adult. That movie could also look like you're watching a different movie when you see ancient Japan. It also is nice to see the turtles in the past, and not in their typical urban environment, and a villain besides Shredder. That movie couldn't be written by a kid, I don't think most kids are really familiar with the Samurai in 17th Century Japan. This second one seems more like it was written by a kid, as it's a plot a kid could come up with.So, the movie entertained me a little. I mean the Go Ninja Go Ninja Go sequence was cool. The climax while it could have been better was cool. But, a lot of the movie seemed slow pace, and cheesy. I'm sure the first one will entertain you more than this one. If you like history, like me you'd probably prefer the 3rd one. So, for entertainment purposes and remembering the turtles from when they were men in costumes, I give it a 5.
joshuadrake-39480 TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES II: THE SECRET OF THE OOZE is the second Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film in the overall TMNT film franchise.It is the sequel to TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES (1990),and it is really good and amazing to see this film.The film is commonly abbrieviated as TMNT II and the film is distributed by New Line Cinema and internationally distributed by 20th Century Fox.The film follows the adventures of the four Turtles: Michaelangelo, Donatello, Leonardo and Raphael and their master, Splinter.Roughly resuming from the original film, the villain, Shredder, returning to New York City to get take back command of the Foot Clan and work towards getting revenge and work towards getting revenge on the Turtles.When he learns the secret behind the Turtles' mutation, he becomes more dangerous than ever.The film sheds some light on the origins of Splinter and the Turtles, as well as introduces two new villains: Tokka and Rahzar.Unlike the original and first film, this one rarely showed the use of Turtles' weapons. They instead fight bare-fisted for much of the film as part of an attempt to tone down some of the violence of the previous movie.The film was March 22, 1991, and received mixed to negative critical reception from critics who felt it departed from the much darker tone of the original 1990 film and was more light-hearted.The story is very coherent and just fantastic, unlike some people says that it is not as good as the first film's story.The action sequences are just amazing and fantastic, especially the action sequence at the end when the Turtles are inside the dance club and that is where Vanilla Ice sings "The Ninja Rap".Nothing is bad about the music and the music in this film is just fantastic and yes, it is composed by John Du Prez and it is just spectacular and just fantastic.The turtles look as good as they did with the other previous film and it is just so amazing. Speaking of Turtles, the voice actors are all good this time.Kevin Clash, Michael McConnohie and Robbie Rist returns in their roles as Splinter, Tatsu and Michelangelo. Corey Feldman played Donatello in the previous film and was replaced by Adam Carl.The other actor who got replaced for Raphael, was Josh Pais, and he was replaced by Laurie Faso. Brian Tochi plays Leonardo and he does a great job again as well.Frank Welker plays the roles of both Tokka and Rahzar and he does a great job with both of them and his performance is so great.Another actor who got replaced was Judith Hoag, who previously played April O'Neill in the first film and Paige Turco took her place and she is amazing in the part. Ernie Reyes, Jr. plays the role of Keno and he is fantastic in his part and just amazingly.Overall, TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES II: THE SECRET OF THE OOZE is amazingly well-done and it is just fantastic and good and much better than the first film.This film is an absolute smash-hit, 10/10.
utgard14 Awful sequel that deals with the 'ooze' that created the Turtles. Shredder's back and wants to use the ooze to create more mutants. This is the one with Super Shredder, folks. The Turtles are so annoying this time around I was ready to give up fifteen minutes in. Watered-down violence, childish dialogue, and cheap sets don't help. This movie gave the world the Vanilla Ice "Ninja Rap" song. That alone is reason to hate it. Not to sound like a film snob but you have to be a six year-old, or the mental equivalent, to enjoy this dreck. What the hell was David Warner doing in this? Did he need money that badly? Avoid at all costs unless you're REALLY into Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
