Siege battles were always my favorate kind of battles, I don't know why but it could be the fact that it takes place in a home enviorment, the amount of odds that roll in and that you have confined space.

I love how they handled this battle which was in the original comic book arc as well as the live action movie. It is remonicent of the film "Assault on Pricent 13". There really isn't much to say, this episode is all action which makes it awesome. It was fun seeing the Turtles as usual kick some butt but a little exausting at the same time because of the vast odds as well as the diverse groups of foot soilders. And just when you think things can't get worse they do when others take their place. I'm thinking oh come on guys give me a break.

But it's a bit disheartening because this is one of those times where the turtles actually lose. And that's one of the reasons I love this series because it makes things even for both sides, which helps show how human the good guys can be.moreless
