Bebop and Rocksteady Shine Amid Michael Bay's Disappointing TMNT Films

The 2016 film Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is widely regarded as a low point in the franchise, but it deserves credit for one thing: an absolutely perfect portrayal of fan-favorite goons Bebop and Rocksteady. While the movie's plot and CGI were heavily criticized, the duo's on-screen chemistry and comedic timing captured the spirit of the original comics and cartoons. Their appearance offered a rare bright spot in an otherwise unwatchable series.
