With “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem,” Nickelodeon takes the fertile turtle property back to its roots.
to produce, the toon studio commissioned an animated reboot that focuses on the ooze-boosted vigilantes’ awkward adolescent identities, while giving the franchise a fresh comic-book look.takes the loose, pseudo-hand-drawn style of “The Mitchells vs. the Machines” and pushes it even further here, such that every frame has a scribbled, street-art aesthetic.
With a welcome dose of self-deprecation, the script by Rowe, Rogen, Evan Goldberg, Dan Hernandez and Benji Samit recaps the reptiles’ backstory, the waits a beat. “If you think about that, it couldn’t make more sense,” Chan quips, essentially acknowledging that everything about the Turtles’ origins is ridiculous — but that doesn’t mean the movie can’t have a sense of humor about itself.
For now, the film focuses on the mutant fly, which Stockman’s research swole into a jive-talking blaxploitation hulk who calls himself “Super Fly.” His plan is to mass-produce the ooze and release it into world, turning all creatures into freakazoid versions of themselves. The Turtles intervene, resulting in a singalong that mutates into a surreal car chase — easily this absurdist comedy’s most memorable scene.
I’m pretty sure you could ask ChatGPT to write a TMNT script in the style of Seth Rogen and get something just as funny. There’s even one moment, mid-finale, when aspiring reporter April O’Neil glances up at the now-kaiju-sized Super Duper Fly and delivers what should’ve been an epic catchphrase. The five guys credited with the script could have come up with something incredibly original for this moment, but instead, she yells, “Not on my watch!” .
