Top Critics Reviews

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.

fresh:
One finds in them the same unabashed enjoyment of color and movement, of spectacular athletics and outrageous stunts, that animates the Hong Kong action cinema as a whole and makes it so superbly entertaining.

rotten:
If the new film is considerably less imaginative than your average Punch-and-Judy show, it is, nevertheless, a step up from last year's turtle-fest.
