Detailed product description

Based on one of the most popular Japanese manga series of all time, Dragonball: Evolution follows a young warrior on an epic adventure to discover his destiny and save the world from the forces of darkness. For his eighteenth birthday, mild-mannered Goku is given a mystical Dragonball, one of only seven in existence, which combine to grant a perfect wish to whoever possesses them. But an ancient warlord named Piccolo has escaped eternal imprisonment and is on his own quest to gather the Dragonballs. Goku must enlist the help of his friends and the power of his evolving martial arts skills to defeat Piccolo before it's too late! Packed with spectacular visual effects, high-flying action, and over an hour of hard-hitting extras, Dragonball: Evolution Z-Edition brings the legend to life like never before!

Awesome Movie

i understand why people don't like this movie, but i am one of the ones that support it, its a good action movie yeah Goku is called oozaru, thats probably because they are waiting to reveal his a saiyin for part two, but in a way the ending with piccolo was cheesy but a good movie none the less. its their first movie so cut them a lil slack, i can watch it over and over again

Ok so i had heard a lot of bad stuff about his movie. I've waited since 2000 for a movie of DBZ to come out. Going into it i knew it was not going to follow the story ...but think about it they can not put a season into an hour and a half. I liked the differnt take on the story but it could have been a hole lot better than what it was. I would say if ur a fan of Dragonball of Dragonball z to at lest rent it and try it out for your self.

for everyone who bad mouthed this movie. remember a live action movie good or bad is better than no movie at all. also to the person who said it was the first live action movie of dragon ball is mistaken. there was one in the 80's made in japan the movie was call dragon ball spirited begining and if any of you think the new one was bad go to amazon.com you can buy the old one for $5 watch it a you will greatly appriciate the new movie

I think NOT. "This movie is supposed to be Dragonball?" Thats what i asked myself when i watched the movie. worst adaptation movie ever made in my opinion... I have watied almost my whole life for a live action Dragonball movie...and this is what the fans get?? we deserve better, as the most popular anime i think Dragonball deserves better than this also. i dont think fans will be happy until this movie is done RIGHT. but i reccomend a lot of things but this is NOT one of them, dont watch this movie its definatly not worth it, if you can get it for less than 5 bucks than "maybe" consider it, but if ya cant then i wouldnt even think about it.

Since 2002, me and many other Dragonball fans around the world have feverishly anticipated the release of a live action adaptation of one of the most beloved anime franchises the world over. The idea of a live action Dragonball movie brings so much potential to the table, and really changes the perspective of film making in bringing an anime to life, and bringing fantasy to life in a whole new way. This should have been something we have never seen before, it should have been aw-inspiring, captivating, and capturing the very essence of the Dragonball series that so many people have grown up with and come to expect. Sadly, Dragonball Evolution is perhaps one of the worst movies I have ever laid my eyes on. Not only is this movie a wretched failure from a "fan" point of view since I am a fan of the material, but also as someone who loves and watches movies, and pays attention to Hollywood. Within the last two years, we have seen some truely great films including. The Dark Knight, Iron Man, No Country for Old Men, Transformers, There Will Be Blood, Slumdog Millionaire, and many many more that would take up too much of this review. With Dragonball Evolution, it takes all of the high calbur oscar-worthy/winning acting, and high grade special effects and production values, and pretty much takes it out with one destructive "air-bending" Ka-Me-Ha-Me-Ha(a little inside joke on the movie). The movie is so out of touch with its source material, this movie can hardly be called "Dragonball". Outside of name-sake(or Marque value) such as Dragonballs, Goku, Bulma, Yamcha, Shenlong, Ma-fu-ba(sealing technique for Piccolo), Piccolo, Grampa Gohan, Mai, Chi Chi, Master Roshi, Oozaru, and the Ka-Me-Ha-Me-Ha. This movie has next to nothing to do with the original story and characters. Even if I was not a fan of the Dragoball series, and did'nt know what it was, I still would have found this movie attrociously bad. The movie has so many problems, it's hard to list them all, because some just don't make any sense, or they are so confusing, it's really hard to put any of the movie into a coherent perspective. I'll start with the performances of the actors. Simply put, Abysmal. They deliver pointless dialogue, have pointless scenes, no chemistry outside of boy-like-girl love interest, and lets you know you're watching a bad movie and nothing else. The actors are either un-interesting, extremely campy, or the dialogue is so horrendous you just cringe at it. You would think with an actor like Chow Yun Fat on board, this movie would have some deceny to it. But sadly no, his performance may be one of the worst of his career. Goku(Justin Chatwin) is beyond un-compelling. He's just anger inducing to see him portray Goku in such poor character. Lusting after girls affections, wanting popularity, picked on by bullies for no reasonable explanation. Gag me with a spoon. The story makes little sense. 2,000 years ago, Piccolo with his disciple the "Oozaru"(that's right, not even calling him a "Saiyan") tried to destroy/take over the world but was thwarted by monks and Piccolo was sealed away. Without any explanation, Piccolo is free from his prison, has Mai(his hench-woman) at his side(who by the way has no back story to explain how/why she's with him), he's in an air-ship. And we are given no explanation throughout the film on his full intentions, or anything else relating to his character. Also, he has the shortest amount of screentime of the movie, totaling 5 scenes. Meanwhile Goku is turing 18, gets a dragonball from Gohan, and Goku is somehow involved this cliched prophecy with an eclipse that relates to Piccolo wanting to destroy/take over the world for no reason what so ever. Later on with the final battle of the film is where the continuity of the film throws its hands in the air and walks away from the movie. Piccolo is somehow able to control the "Oozaru" side of Goku, and that Goku is the "Oozaru" from 2,000 years ago who served Piccolo. There's absolutely no explanation at all as to how Piccolo is manipulating Gokus transformation, or how he even knows that he's a Sayain. Or if Goku is the Oozaru, then what the heck is going on? And if Goku is 18, then how was he alive 2000 years ago serving Piccolo? It's a total mind meltdown. The movie is just full of continuity problems that plague the film from the main plot, to the character sub-plots that amount to absolutely nothing and have no sort of resolution. The special effects are horridly done, there's so much wire work you could swear they worked in a circus. And it's just a completely un-interesting film. The acting is laughable and completely unbelieveable in any sense, the fighting and special effects are poorly done and look unconvincing, and overall boring. The story and plots are poorly written, confusing, and even leave a fan of the series like myself, completely lost in the continuity issues that plague this film. This is easily one of the worst films FOX Studios has ever produced based on a major worldwide franchise. Do not buy this movie, it is a waste of time, and a complete disgrace to the series many fans know and love. But this is also an insult to people wanting to see a good movie, you're going to have to look elsewhere because this movie has no entertainment value to speak of. Overall, this movie is about as cliche as you can possibly get by ripping off of better movies like Spiderman and the Matrix, but also being totally un-original, and just making no sense what so ever with its story, characters, and relating to the Dragonball series.

This movie is an insult to dragonball, the only thing that makes it dragonball is the name of the people in it. Avoid it like the plague.

they took a good story and just made it really bad u would think maybe they could have done the movie justice but no they did not they did not stay true to the original story i mean they can change a few thing in this movie adaptation but that does not mean they can change around the main character they made goku in this movie the total reversal of what he was in the magna series why when u have something good u stick with it not tear it apart and mess it all up the second movie is coming out in 2010 big sinker probally i do not recommend this to anybody at all save your money and buy the magna series it is ways much better than this 75 minutes torture.

this movie is an abomination not only does it not follow the story at all but to people that have never even heard of it like my friend thought it made no sense goku in oozaru was 6 feet tall and it should be more like atleast 30 ft.Goku is supposed to be an alien that landed on earth and trained with his adopted grandfather for years...not go to high school. Goku is also not supposed to be 18 yrs old and even then grandpa gohan is supposed to be dead already. the world was not invaded by namekians 2000 years ago namekians are peaceful and have nothing to do with king piccolo. Also where is krillen? where is tien? where are all the other dragonball characters? hollywood has ruined yet another show by making it into a movie. This movie is terrible dont waste your money!
