But still, many parts felt like they were cut scenes from a video game with more money put in, mainly the battle scenes. I couldnt escape that feeling unfortunately. I get that its more expensive these days to do it all hand drawn, but considering the popularity of dragonball. They can afford to. Double the budget and keep most of it hand drawn and it'd have felt more like a animated film, rather than mash of film and video game cut scenes. And then theres the story, for the most part i enjoyed it.
A different take on many familiar stories from the past when i grew up watching DBZ. But Frieza.. The height wish was very original dragon ball. But it felt out of place. And obviously a gag they intended to be in the same contrast to bullmas, it took me out of the film as being too far out of context with the rest of what was going on.
Its been along time since original dragonball and frieza was never in it. The style of comedy didnt fit for me with him. And i thought they'd have him grow as a character by now which i felt they were doing well in Super towards the end. One of my favorite parts of that series.
But in this film they regressed him back to a by the numbers villain type which i found unfortunate. Goku is still less likable than he used to be, a change that happened early in Super, Im used to that now.
So it didnt effect my enjoyment. He's growing as a character, just not the way i'd like. And vegeta becoming the responsible type more and more is what i prefer. But it creates a contrast that moves the stroy along for Super, so it's something i've grown to accommodate. But if you're an older viewer like myself, you may not feel the same hype other younger viewers did especially if you are a critical person who loved the older sagas of DBZ and like hand drawn animation.
I've seen Dragon Ball Super Broly and it is amazing filled with stylish fight scenes and lot more one of my favourite anime movie all time. Well, this movie is pretty logical and I'm glad they are taking this stuff seriously. There were some confusing things but they were pretty much explained. It is clear why Goku's parents did not leave to Earth with him enemy would sense them. It is clear what was happening during the hour when Gogeta was in bad shape Whis was distracting Broly.
The only question I have is why Goku didn't use SSB Kaio Ken x20, but probably he didn't want to break his body because thought that will not help. It's cool that Gogeta used the mastered version of SSB transformation. It is good that Vegeta pretty much received as much attention as Goku. I'm glad that they didn't make Broly extremely strong and he actually easily lost to Gogeta, because power levels are getting out of hand now. But if you give them time it's ok.
I just wonder what's gonna happen with Broly? We will have now 3 main characters, wtf? Even Vegeta did not get his shine yet, Goku always gets everything first. The strongest emotion I had was when Broly attacked Vegeta and Vegeta smiled. I was like "omg, that's my man Vegeta! Also there were a few nice emotional moments from the past of Goku.
Two things kill this movie for me. The 3D CG looks as unnatural as it did in the recent game, the pacing is rushed, and the music is the final nail in the coffin.
Of these three things, the music is by far the worst. Character design is simpler, even naive, it looks really childish, and the story doesn't even stick with the original. If you haven't seen the 90's's DBZ movies, just watch them, they're far better than this crap, especially the character design and details.
For that reason, I was near-captivated by the thought of seeing this movie at my local AMC. My brief opinion? At times, the plot felt a little too eager to get to the action scenes, though the action is trademark Dragon Ball: with well-crafted effects and general unpredictability, the animation really helps bring out the action scenes.
The writing is occasionally hilarious, but mostly it does a fine job of developing its "new" characters. Unfortunately, it doesn't really develop Goku, Vegeta, or some of the other returning characters, as if Toei assumed the audience knew who they were.
But that's the thing about anime films like this; they were made for fans. So while it is understandable where Toei was going, it still would have been nice to see a brief time lapse of how other characters like Bulma came to be where they are in the film.
For casual audiences, this may very well be worth your time with its action, surprisingly wonderful animation, and insightful backstories on Broly, Paragus, and a few others. For families, do keep in mind that since it's a Funimation dub, they kept most of the language and violence intact from the original Japanese version.
On the other hand, I can almost guarantee you will enjoy this film if you are a Dragon Ball fan. Hey, at least it's better than Evolution, right? Having watched almost every Dragonball movie this one stands out amongst the rest. I watched it in Japanese and didn't understand a thing but was thoroughly entertained. The visuals and storyline are fantastic, and made me refresh some of my Dragonball knowledge. When it comes to Japanese animation the franchise of Dragon Ball is probably one of the biggest if not already the most massive.
The series, Dragon Ball Z, ran on television from across episodes and was a cultural phenomenon. The series has sense had a total of 15 movies and loads of merchandising.
It was no surprise to most fans of japanese cartoons that the film managed to land in the top 5 making 11 million dollars domestically. Box Office Mojo The film does quite a lot to please both old fans and new ones. And in comparison to the older film Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan this film is not only surpasses it but create a more compelling narrative. It does this with its more compelling characters and backstories for this universe.
The film starts out by giving us a bit of backstory on not only the enemy but the world that the Dragon Ball Universe inhabits as it gives us the history on a alien race called "Saiyans" or "Saiyajin"for the japanese audience. It talks about a tyrannical ruler named Frieza who becomes the ruler of this planet of saiyans after their father, King Cold, grants them this authority.
This entire halve allows people who have never watched Dragon Ball before to have more of a clear idea of what is going on in the film. Allowing the viewer to get a strong sense for what this franchise is all about. It however also changes the lore up for old fans so that way they stay entertained throughout this first halve by giving us new characters such as the main character, Goku, having a mother, or giving us a better idea of how the saiyan race tends to operate.
But what makes the Dragon Ball movie truly more sophisticated than the simple brawls that the series has been known for is its deep dive into its main antagonist, Broly, who is given a rich and complex backstory that will leave many non fans quite impressed as the film attempts to pull on your heart strings.
It is probably one of the few times that the writer, Akira Toriyama, has attempted to create such a interesting character. If you look at the original film Broly is much more of this one note brute who only says "Kakarot" over and over, and is simply used as a plot device who the heroes must defeat, but here Broly is a person who has been forced into battle by his father, but we see scenes in the film that Broly doesn't want to fight for his dad, and would rather live a more peaceful life.
These are aspects of Broly that really help us understand the character being crafted on screen. The film also gives us some new additions like Cheelai who ends up being a pretty great new addition to the rest of the cast and plays a prominent role in Broly's character development. There is a scene between Broly and her when they are at a cafeteria in which Cheelai takes interest and Broly and shows that she finds herself caring a lot for the brute even being willing to protect him. Now the film is still at the end of the day a Dragon Ball film and because of that there is still a big action fight in the 3rd act and its pretty great, but unlike the action scenes in previous Dragon Ball films this act has more weight to it because you care about the character involved.
This gives the action more weight in the big explosive battle. The animation in the final fight also looks incredibly beautiful. When you see the main character and Broly going at each other you can't help but get immersed in the fight and take in all the action. Your eyes wander throughout the screen trying to take in every color change, every deviation of position of the characters, and it becomes both overwhelming but also engaging in a way that allows you to have a clear understanding of what each character is doing, and for that reason alone it is extremely entertaining.
There are some areas of the film were the animation dropped in quality mainly for the more comedic moments during the action halve. It was obvious a decent amount of the budget had to go the main character and antagonist punching each other and because of that everything going on around the fight had to be have its quality diminished which was quite disappointing for me as a fan. And while the fights were cool to look at it and the backstory does help them it is a very extensive fight.
The movie is 1 hour and 41 mins and the fight takes up pretty much the entire 41 minutes. And it actually ends up being quite glorious the way they manage it. And I must give the director, Tatsuya Nagamine, a lot of props for managing to pull something like this off because it couldn't have been easy. In conclusion Dragon Ball Super: Broly works pretty well as a Dragon Ball film, and even manages to break some expectations giving us a more complex antagonist with a rich and endearing backstory to go along with it.
The animation isn't always perfect and the action long winded, but is a great and enjoyable time at the theater and one that I feels really works in spades. And rather you are a new fan or a older one both groups will get something from it. Steam Artwork.
