You said in an interview that you didn’t want to take the same story as is in the Mangga and series, making a story of your own to adapt to a movie. I agree of the necessity, as I know that it isn’t worthwhile to copy & watch the same story, but it doesn’t mean you have to do it so horribly. The story in itself had a good line but the way everything was just bottled up into situations happening too fast is really repulsive.
The idea of creating a link with Piccolo for Osaru was good.
The special effects for the fireball wasn’t too bad (needs a little work for different characters as colors isn’t enough), but many scenes are just plain ugly. The ugliest of all is the scene where both Piccolo & Goku shoot their fireballs and Goku going straight to him was downright idiotic (come on it’s a Chi move!!! Supposedly a flow of energy and air pushed by a persons aura!!! Goku flying straight to Piccolo with his fireball pretty much counters the principles). Even in Japanese tv series Ultraman Nexus, at the last episode, they made a better Fireball collision scene than this (and it’s a TV series!!! Meaning they have even less investments than a movie!!!).
Osaru was well made only we don’t see enough of him (as if you paid the special effects by water drops).
The acting was sometime a bit terrible (although in the actors behalf i think they did much much better than the actors in the Transformers movies).
Yamcha’s introduction in this movie was exactly as bad as the introductions of characters in the Dungeons & Dragons movie (why is he following them since he’s got his due with the trap? Because they promised money with dragonballs? Come on they were speaking of saving the world even a lowly robber would just take the bike & go after hearing the true purpose of their search).

Quite frankly I’m more disappointed in this movie than any other movie ever created. Either the budget was really the lowest ever in history or the hired experts in Dragonball stories are plain stupid.
This movie was just an attempt to make a little money because the board directors investing in this movie opened their wallet one day and said “damn I’m running out of money I have to make a quicky dollar so i can sustain my life. I know let’s make a stupid movie that idiots from around the world would look at and pay for!! And i don’t care if they hate it as long as the dough comes in and I can buy me that little Italian haute coutured mens wear. With a little luck I could afford a brand new sports car also. And I will spend almost nothing making this scam hahaha!!!”

Quite frankly whichever person or entity that permitted the realization of this movie needs to recheck his idea of perfection. As for the Movie Director, if I were you I would’ve quit even in the middle of making this movie rather than follow through and create my ugliest work ever.

Miley Cyrus is just… fatality to the sane people who DISlike it! I’m not sane but she still is mentally dangerous to myself!!

I used to like DBZ as a series when I was a young lad! But now…. it fails more than Naruto. Either way…..I’m happy! Next one to fail is Twilight!!!!!!!!!!!! It fails anyway, but it will get lower….on the next movie!

*Grabs baseball bat* :]

Who’s willing to join in a nancy boy beat down!?!?

I completley agree with that! ive.. never laughed so hard at a movie for it being terrible!

We need to petition that it gets made by a great director with great actors.. i cant die knowing that Dragonball was the worst movie ever

it was a good movie, but not dragonball.
