Power Rangers

2017, Lionsgate Films et al

I'm not quite certain what led me to watch this strange send-up to a 70s kiddie show, but having taken the plunge, I can report that it isn't quite as bad as I'd expected—although that's not saying much. Neither campy nor serious, it's just sort of there, apparently aiming vaguely at a tween audience. Editing was choppy, performances were a mixed bag, and dialog was all over the place. Effects were decent, but this comes as no surprise given the abundance of hungry CGI studios these days. So, just think of it as a light show with lots of pretty colors—just not one you'd be inclined to see again.
