"WDSSPR, the Russian distributor of Power Rangers, informed cinemas on Friday that the film would have the highest possible age restrictions after hardline anti-gay legislator Vitaly Milonov suggested it should be banned.

Milonov singled out the film’s director Dean Israelite and compared the film to fascist ideology. “If fascist ideology is banned in our country, then [movies by] the likes of Dean Israelite should be banned first thing,” he said, according to the Hollywood Reporter.’."

i have been hearing nothing but bad reviews so far for this film? lol i'm surprised!

Haha well yeah the trailer looks stupid. They aren't even power rangers, they are meta humans. They have super strength and jumping and all kinds of stupid shit. I'll wait for it to hit VoD just to see how Cranston is in it.

so they are trying to be xmen? lol i am surprised they even redid it! I saw the ninja turtles one and wasn't too impressed lol

Oh gods, the Ninja Turtles ones are terrible.
