Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of The Shadows (TMNT2) is our featured movie which is turning heads at the local box office this week. It is another good vs evil duel, even neutrals may enjoy it. This film is a 2016 American science fiction blockbuster that resonates with Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman’s Mirage Studios cartoon comic book popularised by Nickelodeon TV channel. Out of The Shadows edition is the sequel to the 2014 reboot mega hit film. New York’s woes are far from over as the dark force is on the rise again. This time, ‘The turtles face a new challenge’ when Shredder escapes from custody and joins forces with Baxter Stockman, a mad scientist who plans to use a serum to take over the world. Along for the ride are Bebop and Rocksteady, two dimwitted henchmen who provide plenty of muscle. Luckily, the turtles have their own allies in April O’Neil, Vernon Fenwick and Casey Jones, a hockey-masked vigilante. As the pizza-loving heroes prepare for battle, the notorious Krang also emerges to pose an even greater threat. This plot makes for some fascinating 1 hour 52 minutes of thrill. As far as the cast is lined up, most of the main characters have reprised their roles including lead actress Megan Fox (April O’Neil) and the Turtle voice stars. However the production team reinforced the play with some exciting entertainment names such as Tyler Perry who assumes an evil role this time. Even fearsome Shredder is different and more intimidating as ever. TMNT 2 feels vibrant and hypnotic and is very fluid as it was crafted by a young innovative director Dave Green. He has worked his magic from being in the production teams of Hollywood blockbusters such as Spiderman 2 & 3.
