Power Rangers Samurai

Okay, so lets get this out of the way, "Is this series stupid and corny like the last 10 Disney series?" no, its freaking awesome! Fans of the original show, children, Super Sentai fans, and people who never got into power rangers will absolutely LOVE this show!!! It has more mature themes while still being accessible to the younger audience. Saban And Nickelodeon have really done a great job to make this series as accessible, enjoyable, and just amazing as it could be. Unlike traditional Power Rangers, Samurai takes it themes, story lines, and tone seriously, while keeping for the most part, light hearted. The series actually follows the Japanese series Shinkenger quite well, while changing things unfamiliar with the American audience, but still keeping a strong, well maintained storyline. Check it out!!!

This.. was surprisingly the kinda stuff I watched and enjoyed as a kid. But as a teen, not at all. The acting is painfully bad, and the plot is a recycled piece of crap. They start out every episode happy, then oh no! A bad guy is causing trouble in the city. They fight him once but fail. They focus on one power ranger at a time for every episode to overcome that struggle, one to 3 dozen cheesy motivational lines later, they encounter their foe again. They beat him with what they learned, the foe grows bigger. They defeat him/her every time and turn to pose in their incredibly kiddish and poorly made CGI samurai mech as their enemy explodes. A very boring and predictable formula that makes very few variations between episodes. They change things up occasionally but there's no point cause you always know they're going to win. Not that every super hero eel movie/show doesn't do that but there are no twists, no good character developments, nothing. A very harmless show that is fine for kids but not great for teens/adults. But you'd be better off putting you and/or your kids in front of something like Avatar the Last Airbender, or Gravity Falls, or Star vs The Forces Of Evil.

Overall not the worst I've ever seen but far from the best.

5/10

I WILL NOT avoid the fact that the acting and CGI is absolutely nuts and quite hilarious, but not gonna lie, this was AND STILL IS my go-to comfort show. Not as good as I remember it as a kid, but now as a young adult it still has that comforting charm for me. The nostalgia is extremely strong and I'm so glad I can rewatch it.

Well what can i say, Saban have really done a great job with Power Rangers Samurai, it has a feeling of the "Zordon Era" and the stories and characters seem a lot easier to relate to than at times during the "disney era". The opening theme is a modified version of the original Mighty Morphin and this is definitely a good thing, a small negative is that the season's first episode is slightly different to normal first episodes but you will have to watch it to see what i mean. Overall a very good return for the Power Rangers and i hope you will watch and enjoy it like i do.

Rangers Together Samurai Forever

This series was refreshingly fun and full of B-movie fun except in a TV series.

It seemed to accept it was going to be cheesy and from episode one on, the bad acting(unintentional)and the cheesiness(intentional) was well done and provided fun lines and fantastic moments.

It had some serious moments that were made cheesy with the overacting and humiliating lines and events. We have a serious rivalry like the Red Samurai Ranger vs Decker who believed in honor, then we have the gold ranger who sells fish and makes fish puns. My goodness the Gold Ranger/Antonio lit up the room with his fiery Latin personality.

In the end, we know what Power Rangers is and this was an exceptionally well done B-Movie-esque extravaganza and so fun and cheesy and memorable corny lines.

9 out of 10. Fun-Fun-Fun. Cheesy-Cheesy-Cheesy. Well worth your attention.
