* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: Crappy special effects, all of the vehicles but especially the Megaforce (which allegedly are made with comic-book super-tech), Ace's unintentional StayInTheKitchen attitude, the two minority members of Megaforce that we mostly see being ThoseTwoGuys, and Dallas proudly displaying the Confederate flag on his uniform (even if he's definitely an unprejudiced nice guy) all bunch together to make this movie a ''hell'' of a lot more awkward to watch nowadays.

* HoYay: The spandex combat suits. Hunter's refusal to let the gorgeous Persis Khambatta (looking better than she did in ''Film/StarTrekTheMotionPicture'') into this boy's club despite her rank and perfect combat test. Hunter's catty falling out with Guerera over a stolen lighter.

Is it really necessary to mention "Power Rangers Megaforce" twice?


* HilariousInHindsight: There's something [[Series/PowerRangersMegaforce else that's considered terrible and is called "Megaforce".]]

YMMV tropes cannot be played with.

This is Flame Bait now.


* SnarkBait: Arguably the only reason (possibly in combination with SoBadItsGood) that this film hasn't fallen into complete obscurity.

* SpecialEffectsFailure: Pretty much ''every single blue-screen scene on this movie''. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1NpZxn860M Here is an example]]. The Sardunian "power plant" and APC that are blown up at the beginning are also clearly mock-ups.
