The leader of the turtles is a human size rat who has come into contact with the same green ooze. The rat was a former pet of a ninja master and therefore uses his skills to train the four turtles in martial arts.

[DarthVoxyn]

2:55 "Ah! A fellow chucker eh?"

Imagine christopher nolan making a new tmnt movie with no cgi, real costumes, a darker grittier version in the modern era heavily inspired by this movie. It's my dream.

[Arnuuld]

Cartoons, movies and for the lucky ones, great toys and games on consoles. Good times!

[susanperry]

I saw it in theaters also best ninja turtle movie

[WaldoBagelTopper]

Always cracked me up how when Tatsu yells "Ninja, Vanish!" you can hear some guy in the background yell "NOW?!" lmao

[barrymchugh]

Epic!! My childhood right here! I saw this in theatres when it was brand new!!

[lordcooler]

At 5:50, I just love how you can see Tatsu in the background giving a nod of approval to the guys smashing Donatello's face into the piano keys like he was saying "Good job staying in tune with that melody."

The fact that my 8 and 10 year old daughters love this movie and ask for it often prove how well it holds up.

New isn't always better. Old isn't always better.

True quality stands the test of time.

The craziest thing about this movie was that no one had faith that it would be a hit. And then it became one of the most profitable movies of all time. It was very low budget and cost like ten million and made like 300 million. And the reason people loved it was because it was a risk so they just let it be. It was dark, it was true to the original source material and it worked. Then when the sequels came out they just lost faith completely and said "it has to be this and that and the other" and they made it campy and lame and it just fell further and further every time. They even stopped using Jim Henson for the puppetry thinking they could just do it cheaper and be okay because they had the audience... They should have just stuck to what worked and The Turtles franchise could have been fantastic.

As many people in the comments are stating, I also went and saw this in the theaters too. After myself, my oldest brother (who drove us to the movie), and my younger brother got settled in our seats; within a few seconds my oldest brother said "hey guys, let's move seats". "Why?", the two of us asked him. "Because someone took a shit on the ground right below us"
Sure enough, even in the dark we could make out the silhouette of a log of dookie, and as you leaned your head down closer to look at it, your nostrils definitely got a whiff of it confirming that was indeed shit on the ground below.
"Awww sick!!!" and other responses we naturally had, and promptly moved a few rows ahead of us.
True story. And thankfully the only time I have ever had that experience. Whenever I see clips of the original Ninja Turtles movie I always think of logs of shit on movie theater floors.

This takes me back to elementary school. 0:09 "Don't just... Ninja 🥷 kick the damn rabbit 🐇! Do something!" 😂🤣

[xXSharkAttackxX]

I love this scene cuz it's one of the few ones where we actually get to see Mikey be smart. He's not just showing off, he's distracting the foot so Leo and Don can get into better positions.

[NaughtyJuri]

Even though you know it’s dudes in suit they really make it feel real turtles and Rafael getting beat up on the rooftop was so gruesome.

[thade]

This casery Jones is the one i will always think, of, Hey what are you doing with my little green buddy, Hits harder after reading last Ronin.

[WhenOneBecomesZeroes]

I love how Leonardo conviently never actually uses his swords, cause he would legit instantly kill dudes 😅
