I don't know where to even begin explaining how much of an embarrassment this movie is to a classic manga and anime, but I'll start with the things I hated least of all; Goku in high school, letting the stupid kids label him as a geek when he could have ripped them all a new anus without even trying, and getting Chichi to like him; not a wise choice for the plot line, but I suppose some changes to the story need to be made so it doesn't look like a carbon copy of the anime. Also, since Goku was always portrayed as an "oriental" character, that would mean he would look Asian.
They chose a Caucasian actor for the film, and a lame, weak actor I might add; Justin Chatwin has little or no experience in acting, and should not have been chosen for the role of such a big character. In fact, all of the actors did poorly. Their dialogue was corny, and, like Chatwin's acting, lacked a good sense of drama. They also did a poor job on Goku's hair; it looks like they dumped a glob of hair gel on his head and molded it around. They didn't even bother spiking it up.
Then there was Piccolo's design; he looked like The Mask, except with pointy ears, and his outfit looked so ridiculous and derivative; a design that's been seen in Star Trek so many times. Also, Goku has no tail. He needs the tail to be able to transform into the Oozaru. And he transformed at the eclipse; he's supposed to transform at the sight of a full moon. When he embraced the Oozaru within him, it had a repulsive lack of drama. The special effects were clearly on a low budget, and they couldn't even afford to set up fans in the scene so, for example, when someone charges up an energy ball, wind blows all around them to enhance the effect.
Krillin's absence doesn't do much good either; how else is Goku able to unlock his super saiyan power without the "pain of loss"? The worst part of the entire movie was the final battle between Goku and Piccolo. Goku's "kamehameha" cry was also very weak and dry, and instead of a beam struggle between Goku and Piccolo, Goku used his beam to fly at Piccolo and punch him out. Let's not forget Shenron's design; he looked like a stubby western dragon; Shenron was always an eastern snake dragon. But there were still some good things; such as when Bulma first introduced the capsules her family invented, and activated the capsule, instead of appearing in an exploding cloud of dust, it transformed into a bike; that was pretty cool. And even though Master Roshi clearly wasn't as old here as he was in the original anime, he still maintained his "dirty old man" persona. Unfortunately, those don't change a thing about my opinion on this movie; If James Wong even dares to make a sequel, somebody please call his hit.
The only reason why I'm giving it a 3 out of ten is because they got the names right!

dragon ball Kai is the same as dragon ball z, but its uncut and remastered and HD all together there's only 100 episodes in total when dragon ball z had around 200 episodes the story is all the same but all the fillers are all cut out so there will hardly be any wasted talking and mostly fighting I'm a really big fan of dragon ball I've seen all the episodes and the movies. So I'm a big fan i recommend this to everyone if you want to start watching dragon ball z start on dragon ball Kai Dragonball Kai is the best anime ever made and always will be you should also watch dragon ball and dragon ball gt there are all 10 out of 10
First of all i want to say all the people who thought the movie was rubbish that they are old people and have no life. This is by far the best movie I've seen this year awesome story,great acting and the special effects were just wicked also the fight scenes were just perfect especially the forest fight. and you cant forget about Megan Fox she is just so sexy. Right from the beginning till the end the whole audience in the cinema hall were having pure fun. and at the end of the movie every one clapped. this movie must win an Oscar because it was so awesome.
