THE PLOT THUS FAR
Troy, Noah, Emma, Gia and Jake must convince the mysterious Robo Knight to work as a team to battle PsychoTick’s energy- draining powers, ShadowSerpent’s paralyzing touch, Distractor’s giant army of MegaMonsters, and NoJoke’s laughter-stealing traps. And when an ancient weapon falls into the wrong hands, the Rangers will summon the Mighty Dragon Spirit to earn new ULTRA POWERS! Witness the rise of a new Megaforce team in these four ultra-exciting episodes!
WHAT WE THOUGHT
“The Great Dragon Spirit” is the latest Power Rangers Megaforce compilation. Four episodes and it’s the same crap that has aired over the last twenty years. This time aliens have invaded and it’s up to a bunch of kids to repel the attack. They meet up with a robotic Power Ranger, but he doesn’t want to deal with their crap. As they work together to fight off monsters, they start to piece together what they need to do to earn the Robo Knight’s trust.
The Robo Knight is a new addition and it brings a fascinating dynamic to the team. He’s more powerful than the others, but he frequently has to rely on help to accomplish his goals. The Knight has a personality, yet he understands his weaknesses and the need to find a way to bridge the gaps he places on relationships with others. He’s also a frequent Deus ex Machina used to help correct crappy storytelling. But, there I go again crapping all over kiddie shows. When will I ever learn? Did someone say never? Onto the next one!
The DVD comes with no special features. The A/V Quality is par for the course with past releases. That being said, don’t expect to overwhelm your Home Theater experience. Your kids won’t care. In the end, I’d recommend a purchase to parents of small children.
