The Rewinders Podcast rewinds - and reboots - movies from the 80s and 90s that we watched as kids. We talk about what is remembered and felt about it as a child. Then, we determine if the movie still holds up. In between that we sing, make jokes, and act dumb in general. Current hosts of the Podcast are Joe, Ken, Andy, and Dan. Movies are reviewed on a bi-weekly basis and are released on Monday mornings.

T-U-R-T-L-E Power
Now, while one production royally missed the marked with one childhood property... This one did much better!
Follow a group of sewer dwelling turtles that were mutated into being ... huuuuuman-turtle hybrids? Led by their master... a huuuuuman-rat hybrid, who taught them martial arts.
They fight an EVIL organization out of Japan... now in the United States (for reasons), called "The Foot" and its leader The Shredder!
Now things get daytime soap opera-y as Splinter, the human-rat, was the pet of the man killed by The Shredder before he was The Shredder...
Wait... nope, I guess that is as deep as it gets...
But April O'Neil's boss's kid gets caught up in The Foot... and she has to help her new found Human-Turtle friends keep Danny (the kid) safe, and stop the evil organization from using teens to commit their crimes of stealing Tube TVs and VCRs.
It is not the cartoon, but it isn't not the cartoon either.
Listen to Lee and Joe hash it out - and decide if the movie STILL HOLDS UP.
