Power Rangers 2017 Movie Review and updates

Well about an hour ago I was done watching the greatest Power Ranger Movie ever. No really I did. "Saban's Power Rangers" was a good movie. I loved it and I have no complaints about it at all. Is it the greatest movie of all time? No. But out of the three movies with this name it is the best. That fact cannot be argued.

I've known about this movie for three years. That was when it was announced. I was skeptical about there actually being one until where I first saw the announcement made it where you could always go for updated information. I'm a member of a forum called "Rangerboard" and that is where I first found out about it and when they made the thread sticky I knew there must be something to this. And now three years later and 7 threads of 300 pages the movie is out and it is good. I have been keeping up with everything about this movie and boy was that an experience. But that is not what this post is about.

The action scenes were great. And they weren't just the heroic actions scenes that were great. That was some of the misleading I got from reviews. I was led to believe that those were the only action scenes but they were not. At least in my opinion they were not. The car scenes count as action scenes as well and I loved them too.

I have read how this was strong on character development. I can see how and I wonder is this the way it is with most "origin stories". Single hero films like "Ironman" had a lot more action along with the origin story. But this film had a team of five kids to develop over the course of its timeframe so although I think there was a lot more action in the film that what is being told the "action" that would expect didn't happen until the end because these five characters had to be developed first. I figure if there are more movies then each of them may have a full plot center around one or two characters.

Now for each character: Jason, I think had the most development because he was red and the leader and had to be the one to bring the team together. Billy had great development too as did Kimberly. Trini and Zack lacked in that part but there was enough introduced about them that one can know who they are when they go see a sequel if there is one.

Zordon was a good character and his attitude was understandable considering the seriousness of the matter. And Alpha was good as well. And Rita was Rita which is what I would expect her to be.

Overall the movie was good in my opinion. I recommend everyone to go and see it and to go in with a clear head and not expecting it to be bad. And if you do anyway then you might just be surprised.

Okay, now for the updates:

I am still working at the same place for the last four months and loving it. I am still cancer free. I am enjoying my life right now and trying to live it for my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

That is all for now.

Oh wait here is what you need to know about my writing projects. I am primarily focusing right now on Power Ranger Fan-fiction. "Rangerboard" in its "fanfic" section has my latest completed work. I am working on a sort-of sequel to it. When it will go up, I don't know. The link to Rangerboard is down below on this page. Original works for right now are on the backburner. I will get back to them someday and "From Witch to Witness" will be posted once the story is done. Unless I reboot it again.

Okay, for real that is all for now.
