Power
Rangers Megaforce: Battle To The Finish (2014/Lionsgate DVD)
Picture:
C Sound: C Extras: C- Episodes: B+
The
world used to be a peaceful place, but when the alien insectoids
attack, the spirit of Gosei, the Defender of the Earth awakens and
summons a new generation of Power Rangers to stop the alien invaders.
Along with the power of Robo Knight, Troy, Noah, Emma, Gia and Jake
teaches Earth's defenders never surrenders! It's a race against time
to stop Metal Alice latest plot to take over the world, Admiral
Malkor, Cyborg Vrak and a new alien threat called The Messenger.
As
the Power Rangers Megaforce becomes even more powerful to transform
into Ultra Rangers, they work together with Robo Knight to stop the
forces of evil and to unlock the Ultra Gosei Great Megazords, but
will they be powerful enough to stop evolved forms of Malkor and
Vrak? And on top of that, the Messenger brings the whole alien
armada to Earth and begins the invasion!
For
the unfamiliar, Power Rangers is a 'sentai' show where 5 young
teenagers (plus usually one mystery Ranger) transform into heroes to
work together to stop the alien invaders from taking over the Earth.
Often after defeating them they would then transform into city sized
monsters and robots to do battle epic scale.
The
anamorphically enhanced 1.78 X 1 image and lossy Dolby Digital 5.1
mixes are surprisingly underwhelming. Extras include Zord Gallery.
