I typically stay away from shorts from unknown directors, but being a long time TMNT fan I decided to give this one a shot.
Let me first start off by saying that it's obviously low budget, but this doesn't mean it's low in quality. The acting (sans Michelangelo) is forced and bad, though the lead tends to do a much better job when he puts the mask on. The script was dry and didn't have much substance to it. However, the director was able to convey a bit of a darker side to Casey Jones.
The fight scenes weren't bad, though Casey is most certainly violent. There are a couple of scenes I found myself no longer rooting for him and instead seeing a vigilante that was really no better than the people he was protecting society from.
I'd check it out if you have 30 minutes, I think with a bigger budget and better actors, this director could go far with this idea.
