Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Aubrey Hackett While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
bandicootl This movie, like Dragon Ball itself, has a lot that will appeal to first time watchers. The flashy fights, the enigmatic, charismatic characters and the story will make both die hard and new fans of the franchise feel like they were watching a high budget episode of the show. Complete with great voice acting by the returning cast, this film adds something new while reminding us about the old, infamous, villain Frieza. I don't want to diverge to much into the technical and production specifications but I felt it was my duty as a fan of Dragon ball to tell both old and new fans that they can rest assured of this being a return to format for the show, opening many exiting possibilities for future movies and Dragon Ball Super, the TV show which tells the story of both 'Dragon Ball Z: Battle of the Gods' and 'Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F' while also continuing with new episodes. It is a must watch for fans of Dragon Ball and a recommendation for someone who is looking to get into a new TV Show, though I recommend watching the entirety of Dragon ball and Dragon ball Z, a large request, you could still find enjoyment in this movie despite not having knowledge about Dragon Ball lore.
WWF_Deadman_Undertaker I wrote a bad review for the first movie because I seriously thought that movie was lacking in every direction.This time a real foe with no mercy comes back and things get far more interesting. Though it can be annoying that everything seems like sparring at a Muay Thai gym a lot of times between Goku and Vegeta, it was an incredible return to such a significant part (and what was originally supposed to be the finale) of the DBZ saga in Frieza's resurrection.The ties back to the first of this movie series are very well seated. I've seen all of the Dragonball/DBZ movies, and this is close to my favorite, if not winning me over as my favorite. The action and dialog are threaded very thoroughly so there isn't too much of a delay in seeing a battle, but it doesn't happen to be fighting without a story either.I'm definitely going to watch this again with a friend, given the chance. For an anime movie, and a return to the DragonBall Z series, this is definitely a 10/10 and very well worth watching.
cokezero99 This film was the most hyped Dragonball film in a long time mainly because Frieza returns. Also there is a new Dragonball series running adding to the whole atmosphere and excitement of Dragonball but this film severely disappointed me. I have been a Dragonball fan for like over 10 years.The main problem with this film is that it feels like a copy/paste job of every other film. Ever. If you have watched any other Dragonball film you can predict the results and the steps that happen to reach the ending. This goes for the plot and story progression so that you could write it yourself. Frieza returns, supporting cast fumble around until the big fish (Goku/Vegeta) show up and they fight with very expected results. And without spoiling anything the film is resolved using a plot mechanic that was literally used previously in films and the series.And frankly the whole Super Saiyan God/Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan forms (red and blue respectfully) are nothing more than desperate palette swaps to keep up the idea of power progression that is such a worn out element even starting in the original Dragonball. The design of these forms are just... lazy. As for Frieza's new design, it's also just another palette swap.Another poor issue is the canon of Dragonball by now. Super Saiyan was always implied to be so damn strong and just having a SS fighting on a planet leads to severe damage to it. But now these apparently insanely god like being are fighting and it has the same effect on the surroundings as fights in early DBZ. It's just wrong.On the good side it's the best looking graphically speaking though I have seen way more awesome scenes in the main series. The sound is on point and features a kick-ass song from Maximum the Hormone.I give it 3/10. As a hardcore DB fan who has literally watched everything DB related by now... there is no real reason to ever watch this. It brings absolutely nothing new to the table. You will get more enjoyment writing your own fanfic or re-watching older films.
fatboystu-34-242686 After being a huge fan of the Dragon Ball Z series, I naturally had to go and see the return of one of the best anime villains of all time!Unfortunately, the film has just become a huge parody of the series at large. Lots of in jokes that you'd expect to hear on a parody series like Dragon Ball Z Abridged. The series was known for having it's occasional humorous moments here and there, but this film was just too self aware for my liking.As others have also said, the inconsistencies of the fighters power levels was just plain annoying. It really wouldn't have been that difficult to get right either.They've never had much imagination when it comes to names in the Dragon Ball universe (Super Saiyan 1,2,3 etc). But I still cannot stand the idea of Super Saiyan God.I believe Dragon Ball Z should be left in the past where it belongs. These newer films are nothing but embarrassing parodies of a fantastic TV show. Gave it 3 stars because the animation was top notch.
