A likable cast of valiant cadets with immense onscreen chemistry; a longstanding tradition of strictly held conventions; a dazzling display of martial arts maneuvers--such is the allure of Power Rangers, the enduring franchise of galactic superheroes based on the Japanese Sentai series. Zapped is the fifth and final volume of the (2005) Power Rangers: SPD incarnation, which includes episodes 21 through 25 packaged in a single disk. Peace is short-lived when alien forces turn their destructive intentions toward Earth, Her last and best defense is Space Patrol Delta, a team of highly trained peace officers, aka rangers. Beginning with the two-part "Messenger," the pace quickens when the academy receives a message from the future warning of impending doom. It seems that Devastation—the most wanted criminal in the galaxy—along with brother, Shorty, and sinister sidekick Morgana have returned to conquer Earth for imminent destruction. It's an SPD Emergency as the team of elite warriors morph into their superhuman multi-hued spandex to take on intergalactic minions. Just when the fury circle is tightening, a mysterious Force from the Future materializes, riding a giant Omegamax Cycle. As the stories continue (including a two-part "Reflections"), the team of five rangers struggles to accept this newcomer, while simultaneously clashing with a Who's-Who of criminals including Broodwing, Slate, and Mirloc. The same cast from volume four returns: Brandon Jay McLaren as Jack; Chris Violette as Sky; Matt Austin as Bridge; and Monica May and Alycia Purrott as 'Z' and 'Syd,' respectively. The film is packed with "must-have" goodies including requisite megablaster and sword fights, impressively choreographed stunt sequences, and tongue-in-cheek quips like, "Let them marinate in fear," "Let's get this party started," and "How can you ever amount to anything with your skin so... scaly?" Aside from the banter, the storylines explore morality themes of teamwork, courage, and honor. Bonus material includes the never-seen episode, "Wormhole," a Power Rangers promotional, and a Delta Squad Runner simulator game. (Ages 4 and older) --Lynn Gibson

Not as good as the others
Out of the whole S.P.D. series, I must say that Volumes 3 and 4 run a tie for the best. In volume 5, the powers rangers seem to have weakened a bit. When Grumm finally turns Morgana into her adult self, she is determined to become a child again, but she has to defeat the power rangers first. So she gets morphed up and seems to be able to take on all of them by herself. The power rangers seem to be taking one beating after another. Even Cruger is geetting his tail kicked.
And then comes Omega. He is actually a ranger sent from the future to help them out. If you have seen Vol 2 he was Sam, the boy who could make stuff disappear. He was also the little sparkly ball in Volume 4 that took out all the Krybots in "Perspective". Anyway, he is incredible, with all kinds of powers that they don't have. He is also a little arrogant, and has his own hero complex. Of course since his is the new guy, and can kick [...] the others, especially Sky, are jealous.
There are five episodes: "Messenger" Parts I and II, "Zapped" and "Reflection" parts I and II. The messenger episodes deal with the arrival of Omega on the scene who saves the day and then the other rangers get to help him out. He basically told them to stay out of his way with their outdated equipment which ticks them all off. Morgana enlists the help of two new creatures. "Shorty" and His brother "Devastation" who are hard to beat, not including her. In Zapped, Morgana enlists the help of a crooked magician to help her take down the PR, but is foiled again by omega and the others. The rangers get into trouble for disobeying Cruger and going on a stakeout that was assigned to omega. "Reflections focuses on Sky a little more. We find out why he wanted to be the red ranger so badly: His Father was a red ranger. For some reason, a bunch of theives that they have already battled seem to keep popping up, but they are still contained. Cruger sends Sky to question a criminal mastermind who is able to travel through any reflection. The criminal keys Sky in on who the real criminal is, and in exchange Sky must tell him his saddest memory. Sky tells him about his father who was killed in battle. When he starts crying, one of his tears hit the floor and the criminal is able to escape. Cruger left out an important factor about the criminal: he is the one responsible for killing Sky's father. Meanwhile, Jack has some new equipment that turns him into this ultimate unstoppable warrior that he lets Sky borrow to take the criminal down. If you saw the bonus episode "Wormhole" on vol 4 the you have seen this stuff. There was also a totally lame part about Piggy pledging his allegience to Grumm, he was been helping both sides and Grumm forces him to choose. Grumms new plans sort of leave you hanging. Like I said, not as good as the others, but a must have in the collection
