Chicago Tribune
The new film is a fast, funny, engagingly unpretentious 88 minutes that, moving between martial-arts dustups and random satirical jibes, achieves a more successful mix of action and humor than the first. There is plenty for adults here as well as children. - 60
Empire
This lacks the darkness and subtlety that makes the first film so good, and so adult, but its simplified plot and gags will appeal to the under tens. - 50
Time Out
Retains the essential elements that first turned the world Turtle - the affectionate squabbling between the four, the pantomime villains, the cracking one-liners - and the bigger budget is a blessing. - 50
TV Guide Magazine
A reasonably entertaining blend of Three Stooges and Bugs Bunny, using gracefully choreographed martial-arts slapstick without any infantile sound effects. - 50
Washington Post
The humor, which made the first movie appealing to more than just TV kids, is far less adroit. - 50
Baltimore Sun
This slap-- sequel is primarily for the cognoscenti -- that is, for other teen-age mutant ninja turtles, or very small children. The rest of us it happily ignores. - 50
The New York Times
If the Turtles insist on remaining a mainstream box-office attraction, at least they've now had the decency to make a mainstream movie. - 40
Los Angeles Times
In most ways, a sequel-as-usual: a little warmer, with slightly less zip and flurry.
