We Wish You a Turtle Christmas

We Wish You a Turtle Christmas is, as its name suggests, a 1994 Christmas direct-to-video film based on Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Plot
The Turtles forget to buy Splinter a gift and they have to go find one for him.

Why It Can't Do the Wrap Rap

 * 1) The story is terrible and stupid.
 * 2) The costumes look very fake and nightmarish. The Turtles constantly grin throughout the whole film, the removable heads are easily noticeable and the lip-syncing is completely off. Also, Splinter's design looks more like a gerbil than a rat.
 * 3) April O'Neil and Casey Jones are absent and do not appear in this special.
 * 4) Since it is 25 minutes, it feels more like a TV special.
 * 5) The voice-acting is really bad. The Turtles sound like they have Jamaican accents instead of American accents.
 * 6) Countless padding, the most egregious one being how the undisguised Turtles are able to walk out onto the streets of New York without getting shot at.
 * 7) Plenty of pointless scenes that drag on and on, such as Michelangelo singing opera in the middle of Times Square.
 * 8) The Turtles versions of "Deck The Halls" and "12 Days of Christmas" are outright repetitve and dumb.
 * 9) Random kids start appearing in the middle of musical numbers without any introduction.
 * 10) The title itself is laughably stupid.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) It's not long, only 25 minutes.
 * 2) It can be entertaining for how bad it is.
 * 3) The singing isn't bad.
 * 4) The song "Oh, Little City Of New York" is sung pretty good and might be the best song in the film.
 * 5) The poor production values of the special can at least be excused since it was all done with an insanely tiny budget of $5,000.
