Actors: Dacre Montgomery, Naomi Scott,

Rating: 7 out of 10, I went to see this
mainly in ode to my son since I remember him raging about them when he was very
young. I invested a lot of money in action figures without ever being brought
into the mythology. Given that, I had no preconceived expectations about the
movie which I found very entertaining. The group of teenagers drafted into
roles in a galactic war were all appealing and well-conceived. Elizabeth Banks
steals each and every scene as the “bad guy” named Rita Repulsa (I’m serious).
It takes a while for the action to heat up but this movie works on a number of
levels. The last thirty minutes are some of the loudest I’ve ever experienced
in a movie theater which came in handy to drown out the annoying group of
teenagers a couple rows back intent on demonstrating their immaturity.
MVP: Naomi Scott as the pink Ranger, obviously
