Movie Review: SABAN’S POWER RANGERS

Saban’s Power Rangers is the 2017 reboot/update of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers franchise. This film takes us all the way back to the beginning and tells the origin story of the Power Rangers and pits them up against classic villain Rita Repulsa as she attempts to end all life on Earth and become a galatic threat. The film is direct by Project Almanac director Dean Israelite and stars Dacre Montgomery, Naomi Scott, RJ Cyler, Ludi Lin, Becky G., Bill Hader, Elizabeth Banks, and Bryan Cranston.

EDITORIAL: My Thoughts on the Upcoming Power Rangers Movie

Cards on the table here: I am, or at least was when I was younger, a BIG fan of Power Rangers. Back in the day, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers was one of my favorite shows, and I followed it up until the SPD/Mystic Force series around 2005-06. I haven't kept up with the shw since then, but I have tons of unbridled nostalgia for a lot of the old Power Rangers series, especially Mighty Morphin, so I was excited as hell when I found out they were making a new movie.
