The production values are much higher than those of the TV shows.

What depresses me inutterably is that children, who are fresh and inquisitive, will go to this movie and, for 88 minutes, the movie will do what it can to deaden their imaginations.

If there was ever a script, it seems to have been left behind while everyone went on location.

Noisy and meant for children only. A bored grown-up's only consolation is that the Rangers' popularity has probably peaked, and the next kiddie phenomenon must be on the way. Don't even think about what it will cost.

These are the same performers who appear on the TV show, and you get the feeling this has become more than a meal ticket for them. Hokey dialogue is invested with an intensity that takes you out of the movie and into the psyches of the actors.

The movie bolts along at a breakneck pace, from an opening sky diving scene to the climactic battle, which finds Ooze cackling away in the cockpit of a mechanical dinosaur.

It does deliver the cheesy sci-fi goods for fans of the colorful television show, even if it's not likely to win any new converts.

Nothing more than an expanded typical Power Ranger episode ... [But my 6-year-old LOVED it.]

While it has some great special effects and some decent fight scenes, it also has some incredibly bad costumes and some really cheap-looking special effects.

Brings the popular TV series to the screen with a barrage of spectacular special effects, a slew of fantastic monsters, a ferociously funny villain -- and, most important, a refreshing lack of pretentiousness.

Young fans of the six squeaky-clean super teens can look forward to an effects-loaded, energetic adventure that powers up martial-arts acrobatics as it cuts the cheesiness.

A lot more fun than you'd think; Freeman has a blast as the Play-Doh commanding villain
