Wonderful character development!

To me, this movie is perfection.

Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

DBZ Kai is just as good as Dragon Ball Z only without the filler. It is loaded with action that you will love!I give Dragon Ball Kai a 10/10

I've been fan of the Dragon Ball series ever since I watched it on Toonami and it is one of my favorite manga/anime series of all-time! I use to love the original version of Dragon Ball Z, but when I saw Dragon Ball Z Kai my opinion on the original Z changed. Don't get me wrong, I still original Z but Dragon Ball Z Kai in my personal opinion is the definitive version of Dragon Ball Z because it's true to the manga and the script was accurate to the Japanese script. All of the filler from the original Z was gone which is a positive to me. I don't mind filler. The original Dragon Ball had some good filler episodes and other animes I've seen like Sailor Moon Classic (the first season of Sailor Moon) and Slayers NEXT also had good filler episodes. The original Z's fillers just bored me since there are way too many of them. With Dragon Ball Z Kai I'm able to watch through the story without feeling bored. The voice acting was an improvement. Some characters like Gohan and Frieza have different voices and me personally I prefer their new voices a lot more. Overall, Dragon Ball Z Kai is the not only the definitive version, but it is also in my opinion the best of Dragon Ball Z! I can't wait until the English dub of the Kai version of Buu saga comes out, pretty much completing Dragon Ball Z Kai!

Years ago before dragon ball z Kai I watched a bit of Some Poorly dubbed Dragon ball and Dragon Ball GT and the laughable ocean dub version of DBZ (with Some of the worst Acting known to man)I think dragon ball z Kai is the best of the series Much better than the 1999 Funimation dub The Voice Acting was a bit mediocre compare to the Japanese voice acting Gohan's new Voice is cute but childish (a lot of funimation dub fans hate Gohan's new Voice but i like it) Even Freiza's new Voice was epic and much better than his Funimation dub Voice The musics from DBZKai are great and the animation was superior to dragon ball z The theme song(dragon soul) was greatthis series is not as bad as what the Funimation 1999 Fans sayIf you miss dragon ball z than dragon ball z Kai is all you need Because it was the best version of DBZ For those who never watched the funimation version of DBZ as a kid: 10/10 For those who watched the funimation version of DBZ as a kid: 1/10

From a personal point of view, "Dragon Ball Z Kai" is one of the most entertaining shows on television. I will admit that I am not a fan of Japanese animation, nor have I, until recently, been an avid fan of the "Dragon Ball" franchise. I had a friend in high school who loved "Dragon Ball Z," and I saw a part of one episode when it aired on Saturday morning on KTLA back in 1997. My local cable provider did not provide Cartoon Network until about 2002, so I missed most of what American fans saw of "Dragon Ball Z." I had mixed feelings about "Z" when I started seeing full episodes. I found the serialized form in which episodes were shown---in the style of a soap opera---difficult to follow and to enjoy. You have to commit to watching the show for weeks for it to make sense. The villain could take fifty episodes to vanquish. Only serious fans could watch "Z" on a regular basis; all others would find the series tedious and boring. I liked some of what the show had to offer for a while, but found the long storyline hard to enjoy after several weeks."Dragon Ball Z Kai," which is an abridged version of the original "Z", is far more enjoyable simply because it has less episodes than the original show to follow. The fights against the foes seem to conclude more quickly and the plot flows much more smoothly. Much of what I like about "Kai" has to do with the voice over artists who voice the main characters. My favorite is Christopher Sabat's rendition of the villain Vegeta; this actor portrays the extraordinarily powerful super-villain with a confident, worldly, and cocky attitude, expressed with a raspy voice that emanates the sneering arrogance that defines the character. Goku's sweet-sounding voice is a stark contrast to Vegeta, embodying the former's nobility and innocence. Since the fights are more concise than the show's previous incarnation, they feel quicker-paced and are therefore more intense.While some parental groups may object to the violence of this program, it does have important themes and lessons to teach children. The heroes, in particular the main protagonist, Goku, do not win against their foes easily, and are therefore encouraged to persevere and work their hardest to win again against their enemies (the Wikipedia page on "Dragon Ball" enumerates the moral lessons one is intended to draw from the comic book in which "Dragon Ball" was published). When Goku is vanquished by his first enemy early in the series, he is undeterred, and, rather than giving up, decides to train harder than before to fight even more challenging enemies. The heroes' love for family and friends, as well as feelings of compassion for enemies, seem to overcome the lust for power the enemies have. Parent's ought to give "Dragon Ball Z Kai" a chance, and determine if there is merit for their children based on the themes stated above.Grown-ups may find this show rather unsophisticated plot-wise, and will find the fact that characters provide frequent exposition about plot developments to be annoying; in other words, the show tells you what is going on rather than showing it through action. I think adults will be drawn to "Kai's" action sequences, and these might make up for the forced exposition provided by characters. In spite of the "telling" rather than "showing", I dug "Kai's" storyline, action scenes and basic themes. This latest incarnation of "Dragon Ball" is better than what I saw on Cartoon Network. I'm hooked, and I'll watch it when I have a chance.
