Dragonball Evolution Review *Cliffs and spoilers*

[ProudNissanFreak]

Alright, I just finished watching this online and I must say, do not watch this film, regardless if you're a fan of DBZ or not. First off, the acting was terrible. No, not terrible, beyond terrible, I can't even think of a word to describe it. The guy who played Goku is just...you could shoot him, stab him, and he would still be emotionless. It was very obvious that he was trying to be tough, especially in his fight with Piccolo, and FAILED.

Next up, the plot. It was bad, very very bad. It was so bad, I told my roommate everything that happened in the movie in 2 minutes, quite literally. The plot is very predictable and very loosely follows, if at all, the anime series/manga.

Special effects were mediocre at best. It just didn't blend in at all.

Costume design was crap as well. Piccolo looked terrible, but he was indeed green (They got something right!). Master Roshi is not old, hunchback, bald, etc. He's a very healthy 50 year old man.

The fight scene between Goku and Piccolo was a load of s***. It was very, very short.

All in all, this movie was a complete waste of $100 million, which was the budget. Extremely cheesy, corny, idiotic. I would very much suggest not wasting your time and money watching this movie.
