What to Know

Critics Consensus

Power Rangers has neither the campy fun of its TV predecessor nor the blockbuster action of its cinematic superhero competitors, and sadly never quite manages to shift into turbo for some good old-fashioned morphin time.

Mey Rude Autostraddle It doesn't take itself too seriously and it lets itself have a good time and be full of joy. It's about friendship and family and teens being teens. Aug 17, 2021 Full Review Karen Han Slashfilm The loneliness and anxiety experienced by each of the characters perfectly captures how hard it can be to grow up. The fact that the teenagers all come from different backgrounds and are of different ethnicities is the cherry on top of the cake. Rated: 7/10 Dec 8, 2017 Full Review Marjorie Baumgarten Austin Chronicle Power Rangers plays something like The Breakfast Club crossed with Transformers (to which this film makes a couple of direct nods). Rated: 2.5/5 Mar 30, 2017 Full Review David Gonzalez The Cinematic Reel It is great to say that while Power Rangers is no cinematic masterpiece, it is a fine start to a franchise that has been resurrected and thrown back into the limelight. Rated: 3.5/4 Feb 18, 2022 Full Review Drew Dietsch FANDOM The cast is good and the ride is a fun one. Rated: 3/5 Dec 29, 2021 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy While not quite recommendable, it turns out to be surprisingly watchable. Rated: 2.5/4 Nov 8, 2021 Full Review Read all reviews

Thomas R The film was perfection - I laughed, I cried, my only complaint about the film is that it ended. Ariana and Cynthia are absolute powerhouses, Michelle and Jeff are as mesmerizing as always, the sets were breathtaking and the vocals entrancing, I could go on for days. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Ben B So, I finally got around to to watching this. I had been curious since it released the trailers, and was worried when so many bad reviews came in, but I gotta say, it was pretty awesome! I grew up watching the original series after school as a kid, and where it made sense to be campy in the 90s time period, I feel that the gritty, more real and serious reboot was needed for modern times. The movie is about 5 teens who are outsiders who learn together as friends and become a team to save the world and had there been a sequel, as the end credits lead-in implied there would be, I suspect there would have been a LOT more power ranger action going on throughout the movie. It did take me a minute to get used to the characters' nationalities being different from the original series, but I was perfectly fine with it by the time the movie was over. The cast acted their hearts out, and considering the series is about kids, in high school, who are asked to save the world, of course there is gonna be a LOT of angst and issues among them to deal with to become a team! Also, I loved the design of Alpha 5, he was quite adorable and recognizable. I felt that Bryan Cranston did amazingly well as Zordon, and seeing Elizabeth Banks was phenomenal, I was worried she would be campy, as she has a habit of being at times, but she was genuinely creepy and felt VERY dangerous! It was fun to see Goldar too, even if he wasn't the same as he was in the series, he was still recognizable. I really hope that someday a sequel gets made but I worry it would have to be with new casting due to it being so many years later now. I was pretty surprised when I saw this was a Lionsgate movie, Lionsgate is well known for putting out great movies that tend to fly under the radar. Power Rangers (2017) definitely deserved more recognition! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/25 Full Review Shilo Y I have always loved Power Rangers since I was a child, and that has hardly changed.🥹 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/07/25 Full Review C0RV T i watch this movie and it's so cool as heck! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/16/24 Full Review Omar R Still can't believe we didn't get a second part for the Green Ranger. I can't accept it! Tommy Oliver was supposed to be introduced. Nostalgic people ruined that, and I literally blame anyone who acts like the 90s are more important than this current time is and hating this film just because it was modern and less like the 90s television shows and movies. It wasn't supposed to be like them. Nostalgic people never understand anything. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/06/24 Full Review Louis R This brought me back to my childhood 🥲 Glad I saw this. The cast, and origin story, the way it meant something as all of them being more together as a team with how they bonded. The realistic world being shown with each character's lives compared to the original. I love this movie so freakin much and the original ones from 1995 and 1997. It's a shame this didn't get sequel and many more because of nostalgic types hating this movie like childish people would out of ridiculous expectations 😒 It's supposed to be modern and brand new and not like the old days and that's what we got. Haters can say what they want (when it solves nothing for em), but this version of the Power Rangers was Morphenominal for what it was and how enjoyable it became. I wish there was a part 2 besides just a comic for it ⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡I highly recommend this. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/06/24 Full Review Read all reviews
