I have a lot of thoughts about this movie and it's pretty much all positive. _Mutant Mayhem_ is a winner.

First, hats off to the entire animation department. This is even more proof that we're in a new age of 3D/CGI animated movies. I know a lot of people are going to compare this to _Spider-verse_, which in essence is fair because this is yet another "on two's" style animated movie. That said, I don't think they are very similar stylistically other than that. Mutant Mayhem employs thicker, bolder textures and looks almost claymated, whereas Spider-verse uses thinner, sharper lines and lends a lot more inspiration from comics.

Voice cast killed it, including Rogen. The turtles feel like they're actual teenagers in this movie which is refreshing. [spoiler]Superfly[/spoiler] (Ice Cube) was a great villain with plenty of range. [spoiler]Mondo Gecko[/spoiler] (Paul Rudd) also deserves a special shoutout for being a very likable character.

Went in without knowing Trent Reznor made the soundtrack but it immediately stood out to me as a high point for the movie, the licensed tracks especially never felt out of place, quite the opposite.

I think the only thing I would criticize this movie for would be the storyline, it's not remarkable or new, even for the turtles. This being said it's hard for me to put fault on that when the movie is casually self-aware about this. It's also not annoying or self-referential like I was expecting, since many movies like this are.

If you're a Tutrtles fan you're already watching this, but for those who are fairly unfamiliar with the franchise (like me), this is an origin story and you won't feel out of place watching it. I'm stoked for any potential sequel!
