Review of Power Rangers (2017) by Mrmoviebuff — 20 Jun 2017

I just didn't care for this movie. I didn't care for the one-dimensional characters, I didn't care for the generic plot, nor did I care for anything that I should have cared about to begin with. 'Power Rangers' focuses on five teenage misfits who find themselves possessing strange abilities as told by Zordon (Bryan Cranston) to try and stop Rita Repulsa (Elizabeth Banks).

All I'm going to say is this, if your movie, in 2017, has a villain whose name is "Rita Repulsa", take it about as seriously as you took the name "Victor Von Doom" in 2015 seriously.

You pretty much know the basic plot, five teenagers discover that they are more than who they are, they try to make it work, it doesn't work the first time, but then it miraculously works, and they fight the villain and save the day.

The end. Honestly, never have I cared less watching an action movie trying too hard to capitalize on the success of the modern Marvel, Star Trek and Star Wars blockbusters we see, today. If you loved "Power Rangers" as a kid, you'll probably like this enough, or like me, hate it.
