Some more preview clips of the upcoming DB Evolution movie have been spotted online:
Goku VS Gohan
More DB preview clips:
Gohan VS Mai and Piccolo
Goku meets Bulma
Goku meets Roshi
Piccolo and Mai search the Dragonballs
Goku, Roshi and Bulma trapped because of Yamcha
The movie, even if it’s absolutely not respectful of the original manga, is somewhat entertaining (at least as much as Sailor Moon or Power Rangers are both entertaining TV series…). But don’t have too much expectations or for sure you’ll be disappointed…
;-P
The first clip is Roshi, not Gohan. Hope there’s not a Gohan in this movie.
Well, have anybody watch Dragonball Evolution yet? They already show at Malaysia. So I watched it. One thing you should know is that Dragonball live-action is not what you guys are expecting. Well, it’s not worth watching at all! Well, whoever had the idea to hire James Wong to direct the biggest Japanesse tv/anime/comic of all time was ill advised.
James Wong is only good at directing the Final Destination series, I love all his Final Destination series, not doubt about that. But this Dragonball Evolution, eek… “Evolution” I don’t know what “Evolution” mean in this film. Maybe they just added this term to get people excited. This cartoon-to-live-action adaptation is a disaster and a real disappointment.
Talk about the cast, well I agree with Fox to cast Emmy Rossum to play Bulma, I know some people will not agree with me, but I think she plays that well. Emma got some pretty unic and she totally talented actress out there. The first scene when Bulma(Emmy Rossum) meet Goku(Justin Chatwin), I though she was good, but a little bit… not Bulma in Dragonball character. I’m a bit disappointed that Goku isn’t Goku at all and the film so far, it’s not like the manga at all.
The CG in DragonBall Evolution, well at leats this was good. The whole idea was brilliant only when Goku (Justin Chatwin) is battling with Master Roshi (Chow Yun-Fat) and his energy flow inadvertently target Bulma (Emmy Rossum). The punch that Goku makes (try to make like TV/manga/anime) well it just rubbish. Hate that scene. The martial arts choreography is a little disappointing to me.
This whole movie should get a new title because even if it goes by the current DragonBall title, plot and character name have nothing similar with the Dragonball anime or cartoon.
Hi Iszaham,
I can but agree with your movie review of Dragonball Evolution: I saw it last week while in a trip to Japan and, even if I didn’t expect much, it was such a disappointment for me too! I should have waited for the film to run on some cable channel. I feel like I wasted both money and time with this low-grade flick.
I heard they’re planning Dragonball 2, well I hope it will be better than this first DB failure.
When I went to watch Dragonball I was expecting they would bring us something new but It was just so dissapointing.
Well, I heard that too about making the second installment of Dragonball, I hope they will make this seond DB movie better than the first one. Finger cross.
“Well, it’s not worth watching at all! ”
Word!
