Movie Connections:

Followed by "Power Rangers Operation Overdrive" (2007)

A team different than others.

I think this is a great show on ABC Family. The directors outdid themselves. This an excellent show to watch this summer. It shows true friendship and how to work together as a team and succeed. All the characters have a unique way of expressing their feelings. They sometimes get ticked off at each other but they still use teamwork.

Even though I've been watch Power Rangers as a kid, being older, I think this one is one-of-a-kind.It has different story lines and is not following the old shows of this series. Starting off with 3 wind rangers and then joining forces with 2 thunder rangers is different and to me, it's making history.

I want to say more about this but I'll shorten it. I love the show and I wish someday I could play a ranger in the series. I give it an A plus. They should make a movie out of it.
