Take it from someone who thought the 90’s show was supremely stupid, this looks awesome!

Who doesn’t love a group of teenage ne’er do wells who grow into heroes? The preview shows action, romance, and a mini-makeover (a staple of all good coming of age tales).

In this reboot of the (WTF why?) beloved franchise, five teens discover an alien artifact that gives them superpowers. They’ll use their newfound skills-of-awesomeness for unintentional revenge on bullies, jumping over stuff, and to (eventually) save the world from destruction by an evil alien force. Elizabeth Banks (Hunger Games) will play the baddie, Rita Repulsa; and Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad) will play the kids’ mentor, Zordon.

Great special effects, decent acting, and a fun premise? Go, go Power Rangers! I’m in.

Expected Release Date: March 24th, 2017

Expected rating:

3.5 Shields! (I don’t want to set anyone’s hopes too high in case of retro-ranger monsters)

Seriously, WTF??!! Someone please explain this to me.

What did you think of the trailer? Will you see Power Rangers when it hits theaters in March? Let us know in the comments.

Later, Geeks!
