About Power Rangers

Five ordinary teens in Angel Grove stumble upon a hidden destiny when a mysterious glow awakens dormant powers within them. Each kid brings a different secret or struggle to the table, from stubborn bravado to whispers of a difficult home life, and together they discover they’re not just kids playing at being heroes. A cryptic mentor points them toward ancient relics and color coded suits that fuse their abilities with teamwork, discipline, and trust. As they train to control their new talents, the group learns to look beyond their own doubts and fit into a larger plan to defend the town against an impending alien threat. They become the Power Rangers, a unit formed from unlikely allies, for the town.

Directed by Dean Israelite, Power Rangers reimagines the Mighty Morphin legacy for a modern audience, drawing on Saban's original concept while updating the tone, humor, and action for a big screen reboot that respects fans while inviting new viewers alike.

With a production budget near 105 million, the film earned about 142.3 million worldwide, reflecting solid international interest but a result that fell short of high grossing expectations for such a franchise reboot, and signaling the challenges of reboot fatigue.

The movie attempted to broaden the Ranger brand beyond nostalgia by foregrounding teen struggles, diverse cast, and accessible humor. It nudged fans toward the original mythos with nods to the color coded teams and the morphing sequence, spawning a renewed conversation around team powered superheroes and representation in popular culture.

Critics noted the cast chemistry and the balance between school drama and superhero action, appreciating the emphasis on cooperation, personal growth, and the cost of stepping up. It treats responsibility as a choice rather than a title, highlighting friendship, courage, and the toll leadership takes for heroes learning to belong.

What Viewers Are Saying

6.3/10
from 4,576 ratings

Fans who grew up with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers describe the 2017 reboot as loud, goofy and oddly earnest, leaning into teen misfits and a detention-era origin story. The plot is slapped together and silly, but it shines when the five teens click as a team rather than when it gets bogged down in monster-of-the-week stuff. Nostalgia helps in scenes with Rita Repulsa and even a Krispy Kreme showdown, but most reviews say the movie lands unevenly and ends up being just passable rather than something fans should chase again.
