    I liked Turbo. It's like all the awesome parts of a movie jammed into 20 minutes. If only other movies would follow its lead.

    Where have all the great 90's homage movies gone? ONLINE!

    Turbo needs a twenty minute sequel. TURBO: Shamus's Revenge!

    it seems to me that the guys that would be good at those games are the seasoned military dudes that could already walk into a joint like that and beat the living hell out of everyone in there simultaneously.

    Is screaming in the real world equivalent to a powerup in the game? On another note, the arch nemesis is a tad cliche/over the top...MOVE! MOVE! MOVE!.

    You know, I really expected Turbo to look like garbage, and it doesn't. Good on it.

    I'd say that for a twenty-minute film, it did a pretty damn good job.

    Only thing missing : SWEEP THE LEG, JOHNNY!

    Turbo was great! I wish that Hugo's "training regimen" could've been something a little less lame than a punching bag, though...
