TMNT (1990) – The Dark Kids Movie We Forgot About

from Daska Discusses : A Nostalgic Movies, TV & Video Games Podcast · host MJ Daska!

This week I revisit Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) — a movie I grew up with… but one that hits completely differently now.What I once saw as a fun kids film is actually a gritty, emotional story about brothers, identity, and finding your place in the world. From Raphael’s anger to Splinter’s wisdom, this film has way more depth than it gets credit for.And honestly… they just don’t make movies like this anymore.
