Review: Before I started writing this review, I was actually reading "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" Vol. 2 from Boom! Studios. Anyone who knows me knows that I am a huge Power Rangers fan, I've met several of the original rangers (Jason David Frank, Austin St. John, Walter Jones, Catherine Sutherland, Karen Ashely, David Yost, Steve Cardenas) multiple times. When the movie was originally announced, I was very skeptical, because Hollywood has a way of turning things from my childhood into absolute shit (Transformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Etc...), and when they revealed the suits that kinda made it worse for me. But when the trailers started to drop, I was all in. Now keep in mind that this is a REBOOT of the original mighty morphin series, which adapted stock footage from the Japanese TV series Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger. So with this movie they can tell their own story (sorry, Rita was not in a dumpster on the moon.) One of the plot twists in the film is that Rita herself was originally the Green Power Ranger! That's all the spoilers that I will give you. My only grievance with the film was the pacing. I plan on seeing this movie again very soon. I thought it was well executed and Lionsgate has five sequels already planned! I highly recommend this film to anyone who, like me is a fan of Power Rangers. These new Power Rangers may not be the team of superhero friends you remember, but they'll for sure feel like a team, and like friends. And occasionally like superheroes-when they get around to it.
Thats awesome. Can't wait to see it 😜😝
