Absolutely brilliant

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Finally watched this. Meh. DBZ movies always su&k when compared to the television series. I gave DragonBall Super an honest chance and had to quit it for obvious reasons, because it has become an endless cash-grab. Heck, even DragonBall GT is a better watch. Anyway, this film is actually one of the better DBZ films - only because Freeza is such a good villain and the film stays true to that. The problem is the action is sort of weak regardless of the fact there is a good amount of it. Overall - not bad. However it will officially mark the last time I watch anything DragonBall related.

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.

After all this time, it was finally time to watch the new, long expected, DBZ movie. I had my hopes up, until a few Z characters started dropping like flies.There's one point in the movie where Sorbet compares his strongest henchman with the likes of Zarbon and Dodoria. Then later on in the movie, Picollo gets in a fight against the devil-like guy, Sorbet was talking about. Then Piccolo needs the help of Gohan SSY 1 to win the battle. Against a guy as strong as Zarbon...After that Gohan almost dies by one hit from Frieza in his first form (without powering up). It's things like this that really grind my gears. I don't even wanna start about the whole Frieza thing getting God-like powers(!!!) just in a span of 6 months. And of course the whole 'Goku saves the day' thing.The animations are good, and some of the fight are entertaining, but this movie just feels too easy. It's a big letdown.

The movie started off just great and looked promising for the first few minutes. The fight scenes were great and executed well enough. However, the movie had a very poor ending. Frieza had been Vegeta's nemesis from the very start and when Vegeta stepped in to fight Frieza, there was a certain kind of anticipation running through everyone expecting Vegeta to finish it in his style. However, the whole thing happened very briefly and expressing Goku as nothing but a victory hog. The movie was very one sided and somehow forced on to Goku to save the day, that too, very abruptly. Characters like Gohan and Piccolo were also mocked. At the end I would like to say it had some great fight scenes but a poor ending
