13 Reasons Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Was The Stupidest 2014 Movie

9. Idiot Villains

The Foot Clan surprisingly aren't presented as the lumbering idiots they have been in the past: they're more like a black ops division of Shredder's ninja empire, decked out like spies and armed with explosives and weapons they literally never use successfully. They're a bit rubbish, but at least they're not goons. That cannot be said of the brains behind the operation however, who fail to realise that their attempts to steal the DNA of the mutated creatures would have been a lot easier if they'd just used Splinter, who they captured pretty easily, rather than punching him to death and instead going through the hassle of taking on all of the Turtles at once to steal their DNA. They were literally all made of the same stuff.
