After all the controversy leading up to the new TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES, the flick is finally here and ready to unleash on audiences. Diehard fans of the characters have been split on the new adaptation's prospects and it will surely appease and anger both camps upon seeing the finished version. Produced by Michael Bay and directed by Jonathan Liebesman, the flick stars Megan Fox, William Fichtner, Will Arnett, and Whoopi Goldberg, as well as the voices of Johnny Knoxville and Tony Shalhoub. Reviews are pretty stale so far, with our own JimmyO giving it a 6/10 in his video review and Chris Bumbray giving it a 5/10. It could easily be one of those films that fills that "guilty pleasure" void or perhaps one that let's nostalgia win over the defects, but it's definitely not looking like a slam dunk. You can check out all the trailers, clips, featurettes and more from the film by clicking the image below!
