The Simple Joys of Watching a Giant Robot Knee a Giant Monster in the Balls

Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers: The Movie is a movie filled with many absurd excesses. A combination of the intense mania surrounding the ’90s phenomenon and a big-picture budget, it is a film that constantly asks the question, “What if we could possibly be doing the most at all times?” The film also constantly answers that. From the opening skydiving sequence to the Rangers’ new “armored” super suits slapping layers of plasticky padding on top of their now even shinier, faux-leathered Spandex s
