Verity Robins Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
SlyGuy21 The only real thing holding this movie back from a 10 Star rating is the ending being weak. There is more comedy and action than the 2 previous movies, but the ending leaves a lot to be desired. The build-up is great, the conflict is good, but Goku having a second Spirit Bomb that kills Turles just seems like a cop out. I get the idea, Goku uses the Tree of Might's energy against itself, thus saving the world, but that's only explained after the conflict's over, with King Kai explaining it to the viewer. Don't get me wrong, the movie is really good, and I can look past the weak ending, but that's the only real problem I had. The rest is great, especially the introduction of Icarus, and his connection with Gohan. A lot of good here, and only one real flaw, the best I've seen yet.
John Doe This is an important Dragon Ball Z movie because not only does it show the only Saiyan vs Saiyan villain (who is Turles) in a film, but it also has the first appearance by Icuras aka Hiya Dragon (Gohan's dragon friend). The story is that a tree know as the Tree of Might has been planted on Earth and the tree is sucking the life out of all living things. If one eats a fruit from the Tree they shall grow stronger. Turles does just that, and it is up to Goku to defeat him...can Goku save the Earth from Turles? I give The Tree of Might a 8/10.
Todor Kunov Most DBZ fans think that the earlier DBZ movies suck because the heroes aren't as strong as they are in the more recent sagas of the series, but I totally disagree. I'm pretty sure that this is one of the best DBZ movies ever made.The FUNimation version (the old uncensored one) is surprisingly well handled. Well, most of the voices are very annoying, but I'm glad that they kept the original music score and were allowed to put the word "hell" in the script. The script is fairly well written and they didn't add as much annoying sound effects as they did in the dubbed versions of the previous movies.I don't have many complaints about the dub, although some of those Canadian voice actors have unbelievably annoying voices! Anyway, on to the plot - magnificent! Simply the one of the best non-manga adaptation DBZ plots ever. There are plot holes and differences in some of the concepts in this movie and those of the series, but that's just so that the story could be more entertaining. Really good story!I sincerely recommend this movie, as well as the previous two, their dubbed versions especially. Of course, many of the voices in them are very annoying and there are some really annoying sound effects too, but it's still more enjoyable to listen to them than to read subtitles throughout the entire movie.
hybrid_theory_bd I am a huge fan of Dragonball, love that stuff, but after watching "The Tree Of Might" Pioneer's Dubbed version I found that it wasn't anything special at all, I mean don't get me wrong there were a lot of good fight scenes here and there, but yet again, the ending was SOOO predictable! they use Goku's Spirit Bomb too much. I must say though the sound effects for when they are fighting are top notch, the sound effects are so crisp and satisfying and ACTUALLY sound like punches not "PHsHHH" slashing noises from FUNImation... also out of the 3 Pioneer movies "Dead Zone, The Worlds Strongest" and "Tree Of Might" this one has the most stupidest lines! Even though this one was an hour it still did not feel like it, this one isn't even as satisfying as Dead Zone or The Worlds Strongest go watch those instead.
