Review: Dragonball Evolution

Category:Movies
Genre: Science Fiction & Fantasy

If ever you guys decide to watch this film, do not expect a hard-core adaptation of the Dragonball that we used to see way, way back, after all, this is just the start of the Dragonball series. Even though the story was a lil bit different from the animated series that I've watched (even patronized) as a child, I still think that Dragonball Evolution is a good film.

I read somewhere that the reason behind the somewhat different approach to the story is because they (people behind the production) wanted to "re-introduce" and "re-invent" Dragonball. After seeing the film, I think they've done a pretty good job of doing the two aforementioned things.

Actors were good and the effects were awesome, although the duel towards the end could've been more exciting and not so anti-climatic.

I'm giving it four stars because I enjoyed it and because Chi Chi (Jamie Chung) is hot. I would've given it five stars but Bulma (Emmy Rossum) doesn't have blue hair and is lacking in some parts. HAHA.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.
