Ill just take it as a DBZ parody. Just as I did with DBZ GT lol

Insert random "strongest in the universe"villian and you got yourself a movie. Insert 14 universes and you'll have yourself another series. I honestly hope not haha

Well, good to see the characters again at least.

This film was so bad, there isn't a badass vilian like Cooler(or metal one), Broly etc..., instead we have a purple Chiwawa and this isn't the worst. The worst is that Goku is arrogant and Vegeta relinquished his pride, how can this be Dragon Ball if the two main badass characters of all anime are completely changed.
This all in a 10 year gap. Wtf??? Bills tells in the end a huge cliffhanger that there is 12 more universes and that in each six of those there are two gods more powerful than him?
Seeing the credits I can only think that they wanted to make people hope for more sequels and to sell more manga.
Just like the guy above me said, I'll take this as a parody and be grateful that I saw the characters with recent animation for the last time.

Didn't really get good till near the end, the fight scenes where awesome (as always), but other then that it was just okay. Too much CG imo.
Funny moments.
Goku's pink hair was weird, but I suppose they already used all other colors before. LOL

The movie was a let down IMO. The first half is mostly just slice of life, forced humor, lame gags, and wasted screen time on characters I don't care about (Pilaf and his minions). The movie also couldn't decide if it wanted to be serious or just frivolous with regards to Bills threatening to destroy the earth. Seeing the once badass Vegeta act like a gigantic moron on stage was also incredibly jarring.

I get the impression that this movie tried to go back to the comical, easygoing tone that DB/Z had prior to the series' shift into darker and more action packed plot after Raditz appeared on the scene. However, it's far too late now for such drastic backpedaling. DB/Z is respected in the west primarily for its intense, high speed battles, and badassery, not its gags and comedy. So for me, this movie came across as contrived, anticlimactic, and a fundamental rejection of what makes DB/Z worth the time in the first place.

Bills adresses that when Goku's trying to hold off his sun ball and says that Goku's body had absorbed the powers of SSJ God,so he didn't power down significantly even after the mode had become deactivated.

This was a decent movie, even though I really really dislike the Japanese voice actors in Dragonball Z.
The humour was funny in the beginning with Bill.
Also I never felt that Bill was a threat, just a bored God of Destruction who wanted a little fun.

All in all, despite the Japanese dub, I thought it was a decent movie, 8/8

* King Kai is going to be way more awesome in the English dub when he keeps bashing and shouting towards Goku :D

** I could see a future series coming up aswell, with the new animation that they have, and how well this movie turned out to be. (They mentioned 12 universes, with Bill not even being the strongest, as Whis is his teacher)

I loved the film.

The animation, obviously, was really good, with the action scenes being the stand-outs.

It was nice seeing the cast again (even if Piccolo, Krillin, Yamcha, etc) didn't do anything.

Nozawa can still voice Goku, all right.

Bills was a fun villain, but I found Wiss to be a tad boring. Bills must be really spoiled or bored though, if he is willing to destroy the earth over pudding.

And ooh, I sense a sequel, since there are other Gods of Destruction out there.

My only big complaint was that the Pilaf sub-plot was completely unnecesary.

Well the power up's on series was based on some "logic".
Training= Power up
ssj1<ssj2<ssj3<~ mistic gohan

On the movie:
Hold 6 sayain hands = Power up
ssj2(Vegeta) > ssj3(Goku) > Mistic Gohan = Piccolo = Tien... ect.

ssj god < ssj1(Goku) =~ bills =~ normal Goku

So because of the pudding super saiyan god created.

My only problem was that there wasn't enough fighting, most of this film was just filler to a dull battle with Bills. I mean when Goku fought Frieza, he became a Super Saiyan. When he fought Cell, he did the Warp Kamehameha and then Gohan became a Super Saiyan 2. With Buu, Goku became a Super Saiyan 3 and later merged with Vegeta to become Vegito. It was cool. Here there are no new moves, just them flying around and punching/kicking each other.

So that was dull. Then Lord Bills' had almost no backstory, and he wasn't even that evil for a villain. His whole "evil" was that he was merely supposed to destroy because of being the God of Destruction, and then his reason for deciding to blow up Earth was not getting putting, which contradicts why he's supposed to want to destroy it.

Then the end of the film says that Whis is even stronger than he is, and the only thing we know about him is that he was there with Bills and that he's his teacher. That's it. No moves or anything are seen from him.

Not to mention they don't even beat Bills. It's the first time in DBZ history (that I can remember) where the bad guy gets away and DOESN'T become good. I suppose he kind of/sort of becomes friends with them but that's after Goku loses. Nothing amazing.

So no cool fights, Bills had no reason for anything, Whis never fought, Bills beats Goku.

I suppose that with a half million budget they did good, but I was expecting something awesome. Nonetheless I enjoyed this film and have seen it twice, but it could've been so much better... =/

Bills never wanted to blow up earth he just wanted to fight SSJ God. The main purpose of going to earth was for him to ask Vegeta about SSJ God because Goku didn't know about it.

It's nice to see Goku get his ass kicked once in a while I'm fed up of him always winning. That's why I love how he got beat by Bills not only once but twice and how he got beat and killed by Cell in the Cell games. Plus I hate how in DBZ the saiyans are so overpowered that they are stronger than gods like the Kais, Bills has shown that the saiyans are no match for the Gods of Destruction.

DBZ was only serious up to Cell saga, Buu saga was completely ridiculous and non serious even more than this movie.

I liked the concept, but I don't like the fighting part. One sided domination is no fun imho, SSJG Goku is nothing special -.-!, and the transformation was lame, holding hands and all ~.~ Hopefully they would be able to do it without holding hands, just absorbing their energy from afar.

I'd like to see more from Vegeta, the way he surpassed Goku because of Bulma <3 I liked the comedy in the show, it brings me back to my childhood days.

I also don't like that we don't have much screen time for Gohan, who was supposed to be the world's strongest, or one of the strongest, and Gotenks <they became uselessly weak>. Need more screen time for Vegeta too since God of Destruction Bills stated that both Goku and Vegeta might proved to be a threat in the future implying that Vegeta will become almost as strong as, or as strong as, or even stronger than Goku in the future!

The cool idea of Goku becoming a God certainly excites me, it's a good way to live together with everyone again after their death in the other world where Goku creates his own planet. <I don't want sad ending for DBZ>

The next time we see them, 3 years would've passed, since Bills would once again awake from his slumber. Hopefully they become much more stronger and.. it won't be such one sided battle.

P.S. Please producer, and AT, give Gohan, Vegeta, and the kids some more screen time! Please, don't make Goku do all the work!

Shitty movie. I've seen BAD OVAs, bad anime series, bad movies, but I never got to HATE them as much as I did with this piece of crap.

It's JARRING how bad it is. There is not ONE thing done right here. Bills, as much as he gets one of two funny lines, is just there for no good reason at all. He is just the most unnecessary character those movies ever had. His relation to the WHOLE GODDAMN UNIVERSE is put in a way that it feels so damn forced.

That scene with Sheng Long pretty much just shitting his pants is not funny, it's disrespectful. Vegeta dancing and singing, being an all-around ass kisser made my heart cry.

The subplot with Pilaf and co is random and unnecessary, as it starts from nowhere and goes nowhere just as fast.

In short, it's SHIT. Pure, unadultered shit. The only "redeemable" thing this movie has is the animation. Even so, it feels like the whole damn thing was made to show off some CG.

4/10 for me. I had soooo bad time watching this movie. After like 70 % of movie's length I decided to turn it off. Here's why:

1) Goku's voice. Seriously, what the hell? Was his voice always so shitty? I prefered english dubbing myself, so I don't really know, but maaaan, that voice doesn't suit his character AT ALL.
2) Some egyptian-style-whatever god?! Are you kidding me? Goku goes SSJ3 powered as f**k and then gets blasted off just by a poke of finger? That was like the most disrespectful shit they could've done to Goku.
3) Yeah, this was kinda indicated in my first reason - japanese dub. As I said, I've always watched DB in English. It has always been my preference for this anime, because DB is just not very japanese-like or I should say it's not forcing you to accept that japanese atmosphere. There are no asian-style buildings, no asian-style manners, everything seems so international-friendly (weird word, I know). I couldn't really stand to make an exception and watch this one without sound I was always used to.

Actually, Masako Nozawa's Goku voice is the only one that suits the character. If you don't think it fits, then you don't understand what Goku is about. Toriyama himself picked Nozawa.

The Japanese voices have always been top notch. It's the English dub that was created largely by a pack of gibbering halfwits and no-talents.

First, my primary problems with the film;

1) It makes Yo! Son Goku And His Friends Return!! canon... and this implies that Tien wouldn't, or couldn't, come to such a massive reunion of so many characters, yet he was still at the birthday party of Bulma, of all people.

2) Pilaf managed to get the Dragon Balls and make a wish... and it was to be young again. Not only do I dislike Pilaf and his minions, but this plot point has been done with King Piccolo, Lord Slug, it carried over the whole of GT and now this movie. Please, for the love of god, don't do this again...

3) Trying to wriggle Bills into the history of characters who then proceeded to never mention him ever again until now is never a good plot choice.

4) SSJ God. Really. Just when you thought SSJ4 was silly, here comes Toriyama with something worse. I would prefer SSJ4 to be canon over this, of all things; because while it looks silly and has nothing to do with the way the other forms looked, it's at least not a leaner version of False SSJ from Lord Slug with pupils.

5) The CGI. Dear god, the CGI is so cheap looking. I swear, an episode of Beast Wars from 1997 looks better than the CGI they used in the fights. Which is a shame, because the rest of the animation was pretty good.

But on the bright side, Bills seemed like a pretty cool guy... when not wanting to blow up a planet because of pudding, Goten and Trunks WEREN'T THE MAIN CHARACTERS AGAIN, 18 at least tried to get a hit in, Tien was actually in the movie, Vegeta once more showed just how much he changed, how much his family and the Earth meant to him by throwing away his pride, Chi-Chi kept the abuse to a minimum and, the biggest point of all... Goku did not end up as the most powerful being in the universe for the thousandth time.

Overall, I liked the movie, and I would actually place it higher than several of the previous films. However, it is still flawed and I didn't find it to be as entertaining as some others.

2. Fuckd up with level power ssj3(Goku) don't manage to land a single hit on bills and get knocked out with two(laughable) hits. Vegeta ssj2 not only block some attacks of but also land many... So SSJ2 > SSJ3, im not gonna even mention Gohan,
3. The whole concept with Shenron summon and thw wish was fuck'd up.
4. The new art: Bills looking like some random bad guy from the first season of dragonball, the ssj god looks like a parody version of Kaioken(that was badass power up).
5. That "comedy" "filler" with Pilaf was so god damn boring and unnecessary.
6. That Vegeta dance... oh man, when is the pride princes of all sayian?

There are no asian-style buildings, no asian-style manners, everything seems so international-friendly (weird word, I know). I couldn't really stand to make an exception and watch this one without sound I was always used to.


So why did you not waited for the eng dub ?

and btw the original voices are best than all others

Some people don't want to wait 3 / 4 years for an English dub and be worried they might get spoilers in those 4 years, which they will.

Actually, Masako Nozawa's Goku voice is the only one that suits the character. If you don't think it fits, then you don't understand what Goku is about. Toriyama himself picked Nozawa.

The Japanese voices have always been top notch. It's the English dub that was created largely by a pack of gibbering halfwits and no-talents.


It all comes down to personal preference, to be honest I really don't like the Japanese dub voices either.
I personally think that Goku's high pitched voice doesnt fit him at all.

I watch any other anime in Japanese dubs, with some exceptions, but Dragonball Z just doesnt do it for me.

Also the English dub isn't created "by a pack of gibbering halfwits and no-talents."
These actors have talents and experience in voice acting so they knew what they were doing, and they succeeded.
I can understand if you prefer the Japanese dub over the English, but they surely knew what they were doing.

But like I said, it all comes down to preferences.

The only way you could say that Nozawa doesn't fit Goku is by not knowing anything about the character.

Years of the English dub being wildly inaccurate and poorly voice acted have dulled your mental acuity.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees how lackluster this movie really is. But then again, DBZ's movies have never been all that good. The movies featuring Cooler were decent though.

Ok i am a huge DBZ fan and have been since i was a kid. But this movie was pretty mediocre. For the fighting i enjoyed Bills beating the crap out of the z fighers and Goku but the final battle between Goku and Bills was kinda average. Like how did Goku over power that fire ball Bills threw at the Earth or transition between god and ssj 1 and still compete, just seems a bit ass-pull-ish. I rekon Goku was only half super sayain god due to pan not even being born yet and that's why his hair is red as he's only half way to his true god form (just a theory). But i cannot believe their are other gods out there and check out Wiss's chop on Bills. They should make a series; and so glad an English dub is coming out next year as that would make it waay better! I found the fillers boring as shit too 8/10.

Wait, so the film was "mediocre", but it is still 8/10?

1) Goku's voice. Seriously, what the hell? Was his voice always so shitty? I prefered english dubbing myself, so I don't really know, but maaaan, that voice doesn't suit his character AT ALL.

I don't think so. My opinion differs from yours.

So unlike most people here this movie had a lot of what I wanted. Bringing up the old and the new, lots of funnies and nice moments. People really aren't big fans of the silly side of DBZ I guess. I think Lord Bills and Whis were really good additions. Probably the only thing for me was some of the animation got a bit too much. I should throw out there that I'm a huge Vegeta/Bulma fan, so...

Also, when Goku was talking about how he was disappointed that he needed everyone's help? I was a bit confused because how many times has he used spirit bombs to finish people...but I guess at the end when he thought of everyone, as usual, he succeeded. So just redeeming himself in that part? Idk.
