	Author	Review
United States	Owen Gleiberman Variety	"The characters in 'Power Rangers' have all the depth and idiosyncrasy of walking talking robo-teen action figures."	NEG
United States	Justin Lowe The Hollywood Reporter	"Israelite (...) orchestrates a vastly more complex array of characters, action set pieces and technical resources for a combined effect that maintains dramatic tension even while teetering on the brink of excess."	POS
United States	Alonso Duralde The Wrap	"It’s better than you might expect. It packs enough zing to make you forgive the origin-story clichés. And the predictable save-the-world stuff."	POS
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"A mega-budget reboot that's embarrassed of the TV show it's bringing to the big screen."	NEG
United States	Scott Mendelson Forbes	"'Power Rangers' is a throwback to a time when getting a darker, more serious big-budget feature based on your favorite kid-friendly property, one that felt like a real film, was a rare and splendored thing."	POS
United States	Andy Webster The New York Times	"[It] may surpass the original, but for what lesson? The value of teamwork? More likely, of a franchise payoff."	NEG
United States	Matt Zoller Seitz rogerebert.com	"[It] is earnest and it has a good heart. There should be more movies like it, only better-made (…) Rating: ★★½ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Emily Yoshida Vulture	"'Power Rangers' is a cash grab (...) But as cash grabs go, this one is delightfully unconcerned with coolness, neither shying away from its chintzy roots nor ironically embracing them."	POS
United Kingdom	Jonathan Pile Empire	"A by-the-numbers action movie, that fails to capitalise on its good intentions to subvert and modernise the franchise. Squarely aimed at kids - strange then, that it’s so long (…) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"	NEG
United Kingdom	Tim Grierson Screendaily	"'Power Rangers' is numbingly predictable (...) recycling myriad blockbuster tropes but draining their adolescent pleasures in the process."	NEG
United Kingdom	Robbie Collin Telegraph	"Sadistic, ugly and incompetent, this reboot is even worse than 'The Fantastic Four' (…) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"	NEG
