1. Turbo Kid movie review & film summary (2015) | Roger Ebert
The Kid (Munro Chambers) is a comic-book-obsessed orphan who survives by trading items he scavenges for necessary supplies.
"Turbo Kid" isn't really more mature than its raw generic parts, nor is it clever enough to disarm viewers who want to regress to childhood without feeling guilty for that naive impulse.

The look and aesthetic of the 1980's have came back in a big way recently. Not that I'm complaining. We have gotten a lot of films lately that are a throw back to the greatest decade. Some of it's really well done, like the movie being discussed this time or Stranger Things.

6. Turbo Kid - New Zealand Film Commission
A bloody but sweet-natured love letter to 80s nostalgia and the tale of an orphaned outcast becoming a reluctant hero in the wasteland of an alternate future.
A Canadian/New Zealand co-production, Turbo Kid is the world’s first post-apocalyptic coming-of-age splatter actioner with a dash of romance. A bloody but sweet-natured love letter to 80s nostalgia and the tale of an orphaned outcast becoming a reluctant hero in the wasteland of an alternate future. Turbo Kid is part BMX action, part post-apocalyptic devastation, part gore-soaked mayhem, part good-natured fun - all wrapped up in an unusual love story that every shy/ nerd/ geek/outsider can relate to.
