Beauty and the Beast: Based on the 1991 Disney cartoon classic, the highly-anticipated live-action version of Beauty and the Beast tells the tale of Belle (Emma Watson), taken captive by the enigmatic and short-tempered Beast (Dan Stevens). After learning that the Beast is not a real monster, but just a misunderstood man subjected to a curse, a close bond between the two blossoms as Belle struggles to save the Beast from the terrified townsfolk.

Disney is always a safe bet, and this new iteration of the classic “tale as old as time” is sure to be a hit with both younger and older generations. Click here to see the trailer.

Power Rangers: Go go Power Rangers! Based on the long-running kids program of the same name, Power Rangers tells the story of a group of normal teenagers (Dacre Montgomery, RJ Cyler, Ludi Lin, Naomi Scott, Becky G) who after stumbling upon a mysterious spaceship and magical coins find they have gained amazing strength and cool powers! They are mentored by the intelligent Zordon (voiced by Bryan Cranston) and learn it is up to them to save their town from the evil alien Rita Repulsa (Elizabeth Banks).

As a popular kids show that has spanned multiple generations, this new take on the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers is sure to appeal to the kids who currently watch the show and the adults who did when they were just kids themselves (and who maybe still do!). You can see the trailer for the film by clicking here. Power Rangers releases March 24th.
