The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Mark Caso, Michelan Sisti, Leif Tilden, Kenn Troum) again battle their archenemy, the rogue ninja Shredder (Francois Chau). Shredder attempts revenge by obtaining the same radioactive ooze that created the Turtles and unleashing two new monstrous mutants: Tokka, an oversized snapping turtle, and Rahzar, a fearsome wolf-like creature. When Shredder plans to use the remaining ooze on himself, the Turtles must harness their ninja fighting skills to stop him.

Critics Consensus

Not only is the movie's juvenile dialogue unbearable for adults, but the turtles' dopey and casual attitude towards physical violence makes them poor kids' role models.

If you love the original you'll enjoy this one, however it has a less serious tone and isn't as good. My least favorite of the original three live action TMNT movies.

If you thought the first one had 90’s cheese then wait till you watch this! I don’t care what people say I still love this film, it’s a guilty pleasure but not as great as the first. And man! I just love that title!

I don't think my negative reaction is a case of a parent forgetting the sort of mindless entertainment that he himself enjoyed as a child; rather the turtle fights are more depressing than joyful.

The artful grunge is gone -- and so's the edge. The whole movie is bright yet colorless

More dialogue-heavy and somewhat less frenetic, this sequel is somewhat more to my own taste.

I found myself sort of liking the turtles and you have to admit that "Cowabunga dude," is the perfect response to every question.

Cinema Crazed

Nostalgia lens aside, it's a pretty crummy follow up to the 1990 movie.
