That's my biggest problem with this movie.

It really doesn't look "dark&gritty" at all. At all. Outside of the scenes exploring the space ship, which are clearly meant to evoke mystery (and they brighten up a hell of a lot once Alpha and Zordon are on-screen) it looks bright and colourful. The tone of the first trailer was indeed more somber, but it was intentionally keeping all the actual Power Rangers stuff under wraps, with barely any Rita, no Zordon, no Alpha, no Zords, no freaking Power Rangers. I think the trailer that actually appears to show footage past the first Act gives a better idea on what to expect from this movie.

Again, it reminds me of all the fears of the modern TMNT movie being "dark&gritty" from initial trailers when the end result if anything wasn't dark enough.
