Review
Diehard fans of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers television series and feature films (mostly younger children) will probably like this game to a certain degree because the Power Rangers characters look like they are supposed to look. Also, they bark out the names of their special powers when they use them, and the fights are framed with sequences that tell an all-new storyline. Also, the game has eight difficulty levels, so experts and beginners and everyone in between can find a challenge level they can feel comfortable with. However, fighting game fans in general will find this title lacking in excitement and energy. The special moves and weapons and such are adequate, but the game is not all that fun.
The problem with Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is that you never really feel like you are in a fight. The controls are sluggish and the fighting sounds are weak, making the action seem distant somehow. Instead of emitting a satisfying THWACK! or THUMP! when you kick someone, the game lets out some kind of scratchy, sandpaper-like noise. I'm not asking for a bloody nose or some broken bones when I'm finished with a video game fight (or any other fight for that matter), but the better fighting games (such as Street Fighter II Turbo) really draw you into the action, making you feel like a participant instead of just an observer with a vested interest in the outcome.
I suppose there's nothing inherently evil in taking an existing genre, buying a popular license, and then creating a substandard game. Companies do it all the time. One of the more prominent examples of this is Justice League Task Force. Similar to Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, Justice League is a fighting game based on a group of popular super heroes. Both games appeal to their respective fan bases, which are huge, but hardcore video gamers prefer innovation and technique over popular characters and mass marketing appeal.
Graphics 
The secondary characters could use a little detail work, but the Power Rangers have nicely colored costumes and are drawn accurately. The backgrounds look pretty decent without being distracting. I especially like the surface of the moon.
Sound 
The musical selections are a hyperactive mishmash of frenetic sounds. Surprisingly, they don't sound bad. The sound effects are dreadful for the most part.
Enjoyment
Most gamers who are not fans of the show will find playing Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to be a boring and largely pointless exercise.
Replay Value 
The game can be extremely easy or very difficult, depending on which level you choose. Kids who still like these characters may play the game a little more often than they should.
Documentation
The manual is convenient and easy to use.
