Reviews of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers

You kids aint seen nothing.

Posted : 1 year, 9 months ago on 17 March 2008 03:57 (A review of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers)

There was such a big deal made about power rangers when it came out in the UK, adverts for weeks before its pilot episode, loads of attention given to it, and when it began it was mostly warranted! The theme tune went to number 1 in the charts, the toys were the "most wanted" in all good stores, and every game at school was Power Rangers or an argument over who got to be Red/Green/White.
The characters were all classic, it wasn't greatly acted but a lot of effort went into it, all the monsters and bad guys actually cost money to make and it was considered a real tv show worth watching. Sadly most kids grew out of it real quick and so they had to keep reinventing it to keep things fresh, the first couple of times it survived, changing the dinosaur vehicles they used at first, then making them into animals.... it got worse each time.
Things progressively got worse for the power rangers though, Zordons wallet seems to have became increasingly empty until present day where the Power Rangers have been reduced to motor bikes!! I kid ye not, Motor bikes, compared to dinosaur robots called zords that combined into one megazord or the far cooler "mega dragon zord" in the later episodes.
This show had a lot of imagination and originality which made it a brilliant show for young boys, now days there is no imagination and that shows when you look at how dumb children are becoming. It seems this show is a good example of how creativity is diminishing throughout every generation. Soon we will all be forced to watch shows like 2 and a half men and read autobiographies by Katie Price!
