More than just a screening, this is a cine‑celebration of one of the ’90s’ most iconic films. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was a pioneering mix of martial arts, comedy, and urban grit—built on practical effects long before CGI took over.

Whether you grew up watching the turtles rise from the sewers or you’re new to the shell, this rare theatrical return is a must‑see. Gather your crew, don your bandanas, and get ready for Turtle Power—on the big screen one more time.
