	Media	Author	Review
		Claire Shaffer The New York Times	"The animation style is snappy and brightly-colored, providing a nice change of pace from the slate-colored blockbusters currently dominating theater screens. And there’s even some good humor to be found here"
		Ricky Valero Ready Steady Cut	"While it has some highlights of the Turtles we all loved growing up, the alterations are just plain bad. I didn’t love the animated film as it looked incredibly cheap and cheesy (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"
		Michael Nordine Variety	"For the kiddos this continuation of the Nickelodeon show is clearly targeting, that’ll likely be enough — never mind that it feels less like an actual movie and more like a 'very special episode' of the series"
		Erick Massoto Collider	"An effort in extending the legacy of a far better TV series, but it fails to comprehend that in order to tell a 'serious' and 'epic' story, it lets go of the elements that made us fall in love with the series in the first place"
		Ferdosa Abdi Screen Rant	"The creative presentation of the film is vibrant and embraces the eternal nature of animation. The chaotic element is in the action (...) which is sometimes erratic and incomprehensible (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Hayden Mears IGN	"This accessible, colorful, and hilarious alternative to cookie-cutter TMNT stories is an excellent entry point for younger viewers"
		John Serba Decider	"Vividly colorful, more-than-occasionally but less-than-frequently funny, reasonably entertaining WHATEVS, but it's WHATEVS nonetheless"
