The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand was very big and was very popular in the nineties with the franchise having a very successful animated TV show and a very popular live action movie. However there's one thing that even the most die hard of turtles fan either doesn't know about or just straight up forgot and so join me as I review the one piece of turtles media that not alot of people know about with that very piece of media being called simply just "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Coming Out Of Their Shells" enjoy.
The plot of this special is for some unknown reason Baxter Stockman and The Shredder want to get rid of the world's music and so then it's up to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to stop them before it's far to late. Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very special well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual plot that's actually featured / presented to us in this very special was in all honesty really bad since it really doesn't make any kind of freaking sense whatsoever in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Starring in this special is Roger Kachel as Leonardo and Lawrence Forsey as The Singing Voice of Leonardo. Also starring in this special is Ronn K. Smith as Raphael , Scott Maynard as The Singing Voice Of Raphael , David Shatraw as Michelangelo , this specials co-writer and co-composer Bob Bejan as The Singing Voice Of Michelangelo , Sherie Rene Scott as April O'Neil , Dana Calitri as The Singing Voice Of April O'Neil , Mark Enis as Splinter , Godfrey Nelson as The Singing Voice Of Splinter , Beau Allen as The Shredder , Jack Scott as Baxter Stockman and David Ruprecht as Kip Reading.
Now then interms of what I personally thought / felt about the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very special well then in all honesty I in all honesty personally thought / felt that the actual acting that's actually featured / presented to us in this very special was in all honesty not that bad. With the main voices for the turtles being distinct enough that you can very easily tell each turtle apart and all four the voice cast for the turtles do indeed turn in a decent performance in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
For some strange reason it was a very popular thing for very popular kids shows and shows in general to get a live touring show in the nineties. With the likes of Pokemon , Power Rangers and yes even Mortal Kombat getting a live touring show however what made say the Power Rangers live show actually good is that it actually featured the then cast from the TV show in filmed segments where as this show doesn't featured the same voice cast from the show and that's a shame because it's those voices that the kid auidence will know as the turtles in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
What is really weird is the fact that there are two sets of turtle suits used in this show the main ones have the denim jackets and the others ones which look like poorly done versions of the suits from the first TMNT movie. This wouldn't be an issue if it weren't for the fact that both sets of suits appear in the show with the denim suits being used when for the turtles are on stage and the other suits being used in specially filmed segments which does create a huge continuity issue with this show in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
This whole set up is just weird since it makes no sense for the turtles to give up their weapons to start playing music. With even the reason that they use to explain this change making no sense since yes you can do alot of good with music but you can also do alot of good with how the turtles where doing things and so the reason that we have is just stupid and it falls apart the very second that you start to think about it even a little bit in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
They really did April dirty in this special since she's given very few lines of dialog in the first half of the show and she's given next to personality at all. As such it makes it hard to tell if this version of the character is meant to be based of the comics or if she's meant to be based of off the animated series and with the lack of a personality it really does make it hard for anyone to make a connection with his character which is a very bad thing since an entire plot point hinges on you having a connection with his character in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Now then this special has / had an exact grand total running time of exactly one hour and thirty four minuets and twenty seconds. Which is a solid running time for this kind of special to have since this special is ninety percent song and about ten percent plot and so then this special having this running time really isn't that much of a big deal since they really can't stretch this story out any further without sacrificing some of the songs which for a musical tour like this one is big deal in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
So now then since is a musical that means that I have to actually talk about the actual songs that are actually featured / presented to us in this very special and as well then in all honesty I in all honesty thought that the actual songs that are actually featured / presented to us in this very special were in all honesty really bad. With the worst offender being the song "I Hate Music" which is just a bad rap song sung by The Shredder and whomever thought that giving The Shredder a rap song was a good idea needs to be fired since it is just such a bad song and the guy who plays The Shredder simply cannot rap at all whatsoever in my freaking opinions anyways / at least.
Overall this is such a weird piece of turtles media since it just mesh well with the turtles brand at all but at the same time this special is just so weird that it needs to be seen to be believed in my freaking opinions anyways / at least. Now then i've talked about all of the good and as well as all of the bad things that are in this very special in this very review and as such that means that this very special erns itself a grand old score of exactly a 4.5 out of 10 from me.
Now then as for where I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review well then boys and girls and as well as ladies and gentlemen I personally got all of the images that I personally used in this very review from the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page , the official Power Rangers fandom wiki page and Google Images. With my personally preferred website that I personally preferred to use to get the images that I personally used in this very review being the wonderful the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page since all of the images that are currently up and and featured / presented to us on freaking the official Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles fandom wiki page are all fairly freaking high in freaking quality and as well as being very fairly freaking high in definition.
