Ranking The Best Movie In Every Major Comic Book Franchise

26. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990)

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' first movie remains their best 30 years later, but it doesn't exactly hold up once you remove the nostalgia-tinted glasses and look at it a little bit closer.

Ironically, the costumes are a lot better-looking and more convincing than the CGI monstrosities that took center stage in the reboot, but it doesn't contain a whole lot that would convert those unfamiliar with the Heroes in a Half Shell into diehard fans.

That being said, there's still plenty of enjoyment to be had from something that's so unashamedly goofy as four grown men in turtle suits engaging in martial arts battles with a gang of evil ninjas.

I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
