    This is one of the most beautiful fan films i've ever seen.

    Casey is truly a character that needs more love.

    Looks good indeed, but April should not be a reporter, and the outfit was not hot? Need to check this one out tho.

    WHAT?! 8 votes? That's it?

    Anyways, it's cool that you got special permission from the director to review the film. The way I see it, it gives the movie some extra exposure!

    Good review as always!

    Hey, BB, excellent choice for this honest review. I particularly loved this fan movie. Also, great ending is quite the understatement. I squeed out loud for the first time in my life when I saw that.

    Wow, I didn't know this existed. I don't get excited about movies often, but this one looks so damn good! Thanks a bunch Eric! Another excellent and needed review for an unknown movie. :)
  • BlackMethos  - Awesome!

    Didn't know this movie existed until you review Erod.

    Looks really good, an absolute must-watch for any one who likes this character!

    Keep on rolling, BB :D
  • Blinvy  - Cool
    I used to watch the cartoon when I was a kid but really had no interest in seeing anything turtles related now. However, this film actually looks really great and I will definitely check it out.

    Oh my God.. I have to see this. I have to! Thanks ERod!! :D
  • JimmyDash33  - KICK A$$
    I just watched it. It rocks and if you donate 20 bucks or more to the producer it says you get a dvd of the movie which it is SO Worth it.

    Gotta say i just watched it 2 weeks ago. The movie goddamn rocks. Well you see it doenst have the big budget, BUUUT it shows dedication in every freaking minute. Not to mention the awesome cameos :D just saying this thing is 32 Minutes of pure awesomeness just imagine what polaris could do with a million dollar budget. Hell this should be turned in to a long run series i would totally buy all DVDs.

    Nice review also you managed to capture all my thoughts and portrait this movie in the glory it deserves. Guys buy this movie if you can these people deserve every support they can get ! Bring the good movies back in the theatres their are still too few for my taste.

    I'd like to thank you for bringing this movie to light, Erod. Only gripe I have is that I feel like this video felt more like a synopsis for it than a review- while you did talk about how much you liked the actor who played Casey and how they got the character right, there weren't that many opinions or criticism of the flick itself. Maybe that just means you don't have anything negative to say, but if that's the case I'd at least like to hear you say that.

    Still, just KNOWING a movie like this exists is awesome. Anyone who can tell me where I can watch/buy it?
  • PixelJustice  - FINALLY

    wow, I just watched this movie and it was the best blend of the original source materials gritty tone and the archie comics rendition of tmnt. I've waited forever for something like this, I know what you mean about wishing it was longer.
  • GreyKnight
    That was a very enjoyable movie. Thank you.

    "Made by someone who gives a shit"? As opposed to the fan films made by people who don't care? It's a fan film, it is by definition made by fans. It's the one genre in which the filmmakers are guaranteed to be passionate about what their doing.

    BTW, I gotta look up that Casey Jones rap. Anything with a Warriors reference in it has earned my attention.

    It wasn't meant as a crack at fan-made projects. He said he couldn't accept calling it a fan-movie because of the quality and high production value; it's referencing all those movies hollywood churns out which seem to have no respect for the source material and merely exist for the money the companies hope they'll make.

    Great review BTW, BB. The last fan-inspired video like this that I really enjoyed was the faux-trailer "Greyson" from ages ago, but this looks like it knocks it clear out of the park. Definitely worth a look. Thanx.

    Nice! Didn't expect anybody to review this!! I saw it when it first came out back in September. :D
  • AFMountaineer
    I never knew this existed but I'll definiately check it out.

    Because the yellow jumpsuit always looked stupid, even in the cartoon - so much so as to render April O'Neil asexual to my brain.
    And April was a Ginger, not a Hispanic with a bad wig.
    If they made the outfit tighter, and less 80s grandma-shaped, gave it a bigger collar, it might look almost comic-book passable. But still probably never real-life passable.

    But this definitely looks like an interesting movie to see. I take it the turtles don't show up, perhaps no more than a passing mention at the end of the movie in an April O'Neil news broadcast... but the story of Casey looks like they aren't really needed. Might be interesting to check out!
  • emilionoguera  - Great review!
    This review is awsome, you show me a film that I didn't know it exists and I want to watch it.
  • Hinatachan360  - Why???
    avatar
    I'm on the site for the movie right now, but it won't allow me to play the film. I click 'watch' and all that comes up on the screen is a splah page and 'watch the movie'. Well, I'm trying to watch the movie, so play already!
