... View MoreThe film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
... View MoreThe film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
... View MoreThe film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
... View MoreThis was trash. I don't get why some hardcore fans would accept this as good.I rather watch the Dragons saga from DBGT.The comedic fact that if hes given good food, the God won't kill you is PERFECT AND SMART.HOW CAN DESTROY THE EASIEST PART LIKE OUR HEROES CHARACTERIZATIONS!?!?!?!?Instead of creating a couple of new characters, they keep making the same mistakes: Vegeta is not even close to what make her great.Gohan is not a Saiyan anymore.Trunks and Goten were cool and had potential in the Buu Saga, and now are dumb comedic relief (which they were too, with the potential for more then)Etc...This is awful and fans should be ashame of talking like this has the same level than DBZ
... View MoreI'm not sure why I waited this long to finally watch this. Maybe because deep down inside I knew DBZ was dead and everything thing after The Cell saga is just filler. Or if you are a true DBZ purist, everything after the Frezia saga is just filler. Whatever, this is just another Dragonball Z movie. It isn't anything special, like most DBZ films. The fighting is whatever. The story is lame. But what really gets my goat is how Goku literally holds hands with a few other guys in order to get to the next level. No training, no nearly dying. Just holding hands. In top of that, Goku saying, "I give up." Just what the heck? I don't know what I just watched but it isn't DBZ. So yeah, this movie literally confirms the fact that Dragonball Z has officially become nothing but a soulless cash grab.
... View MoreI'm quite honestly surprised by all the positive reviews this is getting. This movie was extremely disappointing to me. Let's cover all of the failings of this movie. Presented in the order I think of them:1. Was Kaio-sama's (Japanese) voice actor stoned during recording? He was not able to convey even the slightest bit of fear or panic.2. What was even the point of Pilaf and co in the movie? They did not affect the plot one tiny bit, and yet we spend an almost unbearably unfunny 10 minutes with them in an 85 minute movie.3. I dunno who killed the real Vegeta before this movie started and replaced him with this singing, dancing, acting-loving-toward-Bulma clown, but he's the true villain of the movie.4. Speaking of villains, Beerus was just lame. Stop me if you've heard this before. A mystical villain who is awoken from a long slumber, doesn't play by the same rule set as the main cast, who is all-powerful, but childish and capricious, doesn't think much of wiping out the entire planet, but is convinced not to and is only appeased by yummy foods or the chance to fight a strong opponent. MAJIN BUU MUCH?5. The ever-increasing uselessness of non-Goku characters is a well known meme in this show, but seriously, they cranked it up to 11 this time.6. I've never seen a group of people less concerned about their planet being blown up in my life. If they can't muster up the effort to care that the entire human race is about to be wiped out, why should I? 7. I'll admit, I'm a huge Gohan/Videl fan. The announcement of Videl's pregnancy was one of the parts of the movie I was looking forward to. The scene was nice, but Gohan's reaction struck me as weird. It left me wanting more.8. How did Shenlong know about the Super Saiyan God? He was created by Kami, and recreated by Dende. Neither of whom knew anything about the Super Saiyan God. Shenlong's power (and by extension, his knowledge) can not exceed that of his creator. Further, how would he have learned of something that happened on the other side of the galaxy millenia before he was created? 9. Goku was pretty out of character for his fight with Beerus. First of all, he showed absolutely no concern for fighting a GOD OF DESTRUCTION in the middle of a DENSELY POPULATED CITY.Then we find his only motivation for fighting was that he wanted to be stronger than Beerus. The fact that Beerus wants to kill the entire planet, including Goku's whole family, only occurs to him in a throwaway scene while pushing against the giant fireball.Finally, Goku gives up. The entire story of Dragon Ball is about Goku persevering through struggle, breaking all barriers and overcoming all challenges to protect those he cares about. And he just gives up? Seriously? There are more, but I think this hits the highlights.
... View MoreWhile the movie was entertaining and its nice to see Dragon Ball Z in hd, this movie completely changes everyone's personality and makes them behave in odd ways like they are stereo types of themselves. They also did the fusion dance completely wrong, and Goku could summon Shinron by himself. By anger alone of his wife being hit (out of character for Vegeta being so concerned about anyone besides himself) Vegeta in Super Saiyan 2 form was many times stronger than SS 3 Goku. When Goku loses God mode he is going toe to toe with the same God, who almost killed him with a flick while he was in SS 3 mode, all with black hair he couldn't even fight cell let alone majin buu like that. This show is a stupid money grab at least watch all the dbz episodes before making a movie about it.
