Power Rangers

Patiently waiting for millions of years buried deep within the Earth's crust surrounded by gold, Zordon (Bryan Cranston) and Alpha-5 (Bill Hader) strikingly reanimate after the universe cosmically brings together 5 curious misfits to courageously battle Rita Repulsa (Elizabeth Banks) and Goldar.

These Power Rangers initially doubt their abilities and require sage tutelage to discover strengths residing within.

Their newfound super powers help them to gain the confidence they never knew they possessed, eventually, and as they embrace their intense warrior spirits, they become more popular in high school.

They aren't blinded by their social prestige, however, for to be a Power Ranger one must act with humble composure.

Regardless of race, sexual orientation, or creed.

Will they develop the unconscious altruistic personas they need to harmoniously combat as one, or will mighty Goldar acquire the Zeo Crystal and enable Repulsa to nuclearly unleash pure wrath?

They must command self-sacrificing teamwork.

And will find the necessary stamina.

If they can only believe.

Dean Israelite's Power Rangers takes a look at the lighter side of irrepressible super human excellence.

The rangers are as endearing as they are unconventional in their pursuit of congruent formidable elasticities.

The film lacks the depth of Iron Man or Thor, but that doesn't mean it fails to moderately compensate in terms of pluck and do-gooding know-how.

Watching as the 5 troubled unique feisty individuals kitschily come together as a daunting unified unacknowledged sleuth was captivating indeed, even if I was perhaps much older than the film's target audience.

Their friendship knows no bounds and they will take them villains down.

A neat examination of thinking globally while acting locally.

Listened to favourite pop hits afterwards.
