Plot

After the Power Rangers participate in a charity skydive, a giant egg is unearthed in Angel Grove. Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa investigate the egg, and release the creature inside - Ivan Ooze, whom Zordon had trapped inside the egg 6,000 years earlier. Once released, Ooze leaves to seek revenge on Zordon and betrays Zedd and Rita by trapping them in a snowglobe and orders Goldar and Mordant to serve him. He disguises himself as a carnival wizard and gives free jars of purple ooze to children. Fred Kelman, the Rangers' young friend, accepts a jar, and brings it home. Later, his father finds the jar and inspects the ooze. When he pulls some out of the jar, he begins serving under Ooze's control, along with the other parents of Angel Grove.

When the Power Rangers are sent to fight Ooze's Ooze Men, the Command Center is left defenseless. Ooze destroys it, leaving Zordon near death and causing the Rangers lose their powers as a result. They must go on a quest to find new Ninjetti powers on the distant planet of Phaedos. When Ooze sends his Tengu Warriors after the Rangers, they are assisted by Dulcea, who bestows upon the Rangers new Ninja powers based on the six Ninja animals: the white Falcon, the red Ape, the yellow Bear, the blue Wolf, the pink Crane, and the black Frog. Dulcea directs the Rangers to find the Ninjetti Temple to find the Great Power on their own, as she will age rapidly if she takes one step off the plateau. On their way, the Rangers battle a living dinosaur skeleton and at the temple battle four living statues. When the statues are destroyed, the Great Power is bestowed upon them and they morph once again.

When the Rangers return to Earth, they find it under attack by Ooze's Ectomorphicon Titans, and call upon their Ninjazords to battle the Titans. They destroy Scorpitron, and then form the Ninja Megazord to battle Hornitor. During this time, Fred persuades the children of Angel Grove that Ooze plans to kill their parents and rallies them to construction site where Ooze directed the adults to fall to their deaths, and the children form a defensive line to try and stop their parents while Fred, Bulk and Skull man a construction firehose to decrease the flow. When Ooze fuses with Hornitor, the Rangers form the Ninja Falcon Megazord to try and destroy him. However, Ooze gains the upper hand and the Rangers are forced to fly deep into space. Billy comes up with the idea of using Ryan's Comet, which is going to pass by the Earth, to destroy him. The Rangers struggle fighting Ooze, and Aisha hits an emergency button next to her post, which causes the Megazord to kick Ooze in the crotch. Ooze releases the Megazord and comes into contact with the comet, destroying him and releasing the parents of Angel Grove from Ooze's spell. The Rangers return to the Command Center, but discover Zordon has died. Realizing that anything is possible with the Great Power, the Rangers use this power to revive Zordon and restore the Command Center.

The film ends with a celebration in the Angel Grove harbor, thanking the Power Rangers for saving the world, although Bulk and Skull claim that it was themselves who saved the day. During the credits, Goldar takes Lord Zedd's throne and proclaims himself ruler of the universe, with Mordant joining him. However, Zedd and Rita walk in on them.
