It's Morphing Time!: Power Rangers are Go Going back to the Movies

A surprising contender at the box office, Power Rangers (2017), left fans shocked at how well the remake of a childhood classic lived up to to the fun and energizing TV series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers (1993).  The movie was set in a small American town called Angle Grove, California. The Power Rangers had a nice balance of nostalgia and freshness to the story. With a somewhat Breakfast Club vibe we see these outcasts come together to defeat the alien power of Rita Repulsa. The performance of Elizabeth Banks, as Rita Repusla, held up to the campy quality that the TV series Rita was most remembered for. Can be fun for all, from fans of the originals to the first time viewers. I bet we will see more from this franchise in the future and I can't wait.
