Dragonball: Evolution | Review

I went in to see Dragonball, not expecting much. The trailer already told me that the movie was gonna be very Americanized, have whack special effects, and a white Goku. Although it was exactly what I expected, the movie was still pretty fun. Everything was pretty lame, like the acting, the jokes, and basically all the characters. I guess the actor who played Goku got it right with the goofiness, but it still felt strange. All the actors were okay; they’re weren’t horrible like Street Fighter, but not “great.” I felt that the actor that played Bulma the best out of the whole group. The actor for Yamcha was mis-casted; he sucked balls. It was weird that Cho Yun-Fat played Master Roshi and an older actor played Grandpa Gohan, when Roshi supposedly was Gohan’s master, but whatever. Overall, the movie is just what you’d expect. The resolution and “plot twist” was kinda stupid, and was totally different from the Dragonball t.v. show. If the movie was at least 2 hours long (it was only 84 minutes, what a waste) the plot could’ve been better and stuff.

One and a half out of four Kents.
