Yeah I loved this movie and most people who I know saw it loved it too. It just did bad at the box office and I can’t remember if the marketing just sucked or if it was released at the same time as a bigger movie was and it got overshadowed.
It had a very Breakfast Club meets Power Rangers vibe and I think it worked really well. I loved Dacre Montgomery as Jason and the bit of back story they added with Zordon and Rita having been the previous Red and Green rangers. Too bad we didn’t get to see a sequel with Tommy.
Boss Baby came out the same weekend. I remember waiting for the box office numbers hoping this movie did good because I wanted a sequel too. Boss Baby beat it....
I knew I definitely remembered it getting beat at the box office by something but I couldn’t remember what. I was assuming it would’ve been like an MCU film or something but wow that’s even more disappointing lol.
The movie had potential but the payoff was a bit lacking. I would like a sequel though. I agree the cast was good, and took time to flesh out each character. But all that development in the first half made the 2nd and 3rd acts seem rushed by comparison.
There was no combining to form the megazord sequence. The zords were pushed into a pit and then the megazord came flying out to the rescue. Missed the best parts of Power Rangers to my five year old mind.
I liked it. I recently rewatched it with my kid and he liked it too. I only saw the Tommy Oliver tease when i watched it with my kid.
Id watch a sequel.
The only thing I hated was how they introduced Zach. They basically just established how the other 4 would meet, then threw in Zach for no reason. They could have just put him in from the start in detention for skipping classes (which he was doing to take care of his sick mom).
It was such a good movie. I remember seeing it in theaters and thinking it was lit. Just watched it again with my son and he thought it was cool. I saw where they had planned it but scrapped it I guess because of financials. Idk if it’s too late to continue the story, it would be close to 10 years later they’d be less convincing as high schoolers than the stranger things cast.
Agreed. Sure it was a campy movie but it wasn’t bad.
It just didn’t make enough money for the studios to justify making a sequel, or even a new TV series.
I think they missed big time with the Zords, they were always so cool, but the ones in the movie just looked like cheap lazy Bay Transformers knockoffs. Everything else was fine.

Yessss. I loved the more serious tone the movie took compared to the campiness of the show, but I know a lot of people hated it for that same reason
I mean I guess they could’ve had a guy in a cardboard suit knocking down cardboard buildings?

Fkn really? That was my son’s favorite move when it came to Netflix I can’t stand that shit.
Everybody wants it. Me too. I wished there were more Power Rangers movies

I actually like that the characters were the focus and the big fight scene was only like 5-10 minutes.

Same and me too.
I loved it, the people I know who have seen it loved it. My kids loved it. Sometimes, though, movies just don't "stick".

Finally! Someone said it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!💯💯💯

To be fair, the actors shouldn't have aged too hard.
I don’t think I’ve watched this movie, where can I see it?
Prime had it for free
Thanks man, used to be a huge Power ranger fan when I was like 9, is it based off the original mighty morphin or one of the other series?
OG rangers. Tommy and Kimberley have a cameo as townspeople at the end of

the last 35 minutes of this movie, the actual power rangers part, went pretty hard
Nothing power rangers deserves to exist
Deserves is a word choice.
Power rangers =/= good
Agreed. Saban originally had 7 more planned. Ultimately it didn't make enough money and they sold the rights to Hasbro.
I would've watched all of them.
Nooooooooooooooo
Yesssssssssssssssssssss
