They skydive, they kickbox, they travel through space. Is there anything these
crayon-colored teens can't do? The answer seems a resounding "no," until some
construction workers unwittingly open a manhole cover and loose Ivan Ooze upon
Angel Grove. Although incarcerated in his egglike tomb for 6,000 years, Ooze
gets right to work at that world domination thing. First up: Strip those eager
teens of their morphin uniforms and associated powers and send their leader
Zordon to his crystalline deathbed. There's nothing to do but head for a distant
planet to meet up with a bikini-clad warrior babe who imparts ancient wisdom and
power. Meanwhile, Ooze has been turning parents into zombies who craft giant
metallic insects--all the better to take over the world with. This 90-minute
film features some cast changes from the Fox television series, as well as
better special effects and extended fight scenes, which account for the PG
rating. Parents must weigh in for themselves on the famous
violent-influence-or-not question. Although, like anything else, what seemed
violent in 1995 may seem a bit tame today. Ages 5 and up. --Kimberly
