   Surprisingly enjoyable. It's Power Rangers so obviously its never going to be high art, but for what it was it was excellent.
   
   It really nailed the tribute/continuation of the 93-95 MMPR era feel that it was going for. Its cheesy and silly like the original (in a very loving way) but added a pretty strong emotional core that the live-action franchise has lacked for years. Basing it around Trini was a great choice that really paid off. I really appreciated that it chose to focus on characters who haven't gotten their chance to suit up again since the original run as well - we've seen all of the fan-favorites already in other specials, it was nice that this group got a chance to shine.
   
   There are some obvious shortcomings - a lot of awkwardness regarding the timing around Tommy's death and Jason's legal troubles; and the Zord fight CGI could have been better (thought its a masterpiece compared to what the shows have been putting out for the last 10 years), and a few plot nitpicks.
   
   Overall though, I just really appreciate how hard it tried, which is something the live action side has been missing since probably RPM. 1 year ago
