Customer Reviews of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Putty on the Brain

Classic episode
INTRODUCTION:
The Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers was a classic sci-fi action series that debuted on FOX in 1993. This series tells the story of five teenagers who are given superhuman abilities to battle an evil empress who has her sights set on destroying the world. The series lasted for a number of seasons, and has spawned at least half a dozen spin-offs (all of which are inferior to this, the original series.) The series became wildly popular almost immeadiately, so five of the earliest episodes got VHS releases (keep in mind, this series was in its prime long before DVDs were invented.) This is tape three of five. Read on for my review.

EPISODE SYNOPSIS:
For a project that requires vision protection, Zack and Billy create two pairs of sunglasses that both look cool and protect the eyes. Unfortunately, Rita has her minions put a curse on the glasses so that whenever the two see one of their fellow human beings, they will see a Putty instead. This leads to large amounts of confusion. And to make things worse, Rita has already sent a monster to earth! Will they find a way to overcome the vision problem?

EPISODE OPINIONS:
Overall, this is a good episode. This is one of the more interesting episodes in the series due to the status condition that is inflicted upon Billy and Zack. These types of episodes were always my favorite ones, and this was no exception.

TAPE OPINIONS:
These videos are a rip-off because you only get one episode per video! When most series are released on video, they put two episodes on each video so that consumers get a better value - not true here!

OVERALL:
If you can find these videos for a good price, they're a worthwhile diversion from all of the junk that has been flooding the television airwaves recently. If you're going to watch the Power Rangers, make sure it's the classic series - and not those lame spin-offs FOX has been showing in recent years.

Silly Putty
I am not a huge fan of this series although I do like most sci-fi & super-hero type stuff. That being said, this is one of the better Power Ranger videos in my opinion. I liked the plot (Zed casts a spell on Billy & Zack that causes them to see their fellow Rangers as Putties, which are bad guys for you parents.) Of course, he throws in a monster for good measure. But I think Bulk & Skull, the comic relief duo, are the real stars of this series. So, if you like this series or your kids do, then I would recommend this video. If not, then it's little more than silly putty (Pun intended). At worst, it's a half hour of mindless fun.
