Eito renjâ (2012)
8KEito renjâ: Directed by Yukihiko Tsutsumi. With Becky, Noriyuki Higashiyama, Wataru Ichinose, Renji Ishibashi. Eight costumed heroes overcome their individual weak points to form a strong united team that can do battle against an oppressive group led by an evil villain.
“Eight Rangers was a fun movie to watch. It is something of a parody of Power Rangers and super heroes in general. The director and scriptwriter did a good job of balancing humour with a serious quest to stop the bad guys doing bad things to the kids of Japan. The seven actors who portray the various coloured heroes are a famous boy band that give a standard performance throughout the movie. They start out as a group of losers that come together with time. I felt the use of humdrum places like an old gym or a cluttered police office to be quite funny. The effects were humorous, for example the rockets on their suits or the flashes that happened when they punch some bad guys.An enjoyable movie to watch and not to take seriously. I can imagine the 1960u0026#39;s group the Monkees in a movie like this.”
