    Adding to your Batman V Superman example. They released an Ultimate edition that had 30 extra minutes of footage that fleshes out some of the editing and pacing problems that the film had. I hope Toei releases a cut with extra footage

      nocturnalstarboy Yes, they have to do that. If they recap this movie in the show, if it does indeed return, would be a bad idea. Releasing an extended cut of this movie like with BVS would be a better idea in trying to go deeper into the story, development of Broly’s character and give him some lines while he’s fighting. They seriously have to do this, instead of recapping it like with the previous movies.

    Perhaps the lack of tension could be adressed if they painted Goku and Vegeta as villains here. Two arrogant Saiyans, basked in God's ki, teaming up against a tragic boy cursed by his enormous power that banished him in the first place, manipulated by the one that exterminated his race and by his resentful father.

    **SPOILERS IN THIS COMMENT**
    There's some interesting debate going on at the moment about Ultra Instinct's possible inclusion in the movie. Since its absence was something I picked up on in my review, I figured I’d weigh in with my perspective, since I also saw what people were referring to, but didn’t think much of it.
    During Goku’s SSJ Blue transformation, there's a split-second glimpse of something that looks a bit like Ultra Instinct; Goku has white hair and pupils momentarily. I took this to simply be an artistic effect for several reasons: the first is that Goku has pupils at several points in this film from rage, so it’s a pretty common theme that I’m not sure means much. Likewise, earlier on Vegeta's hair turned green for a split second, so the colour didn't really phase me; this is a scene that also has Goku’s aura turning green and all kinds of other weird colour combinations, too.
    Nagamine had commented about wanting to change how the transformations were depicted so I figured it was just that: a cool visual effect, with no deeper meaning beyond that.
    Considering it has a screenshot of this moment in the movie’s pamphlet, I kind of wonder if there’s more to it than that… in the sense that it’s an intentional Easter egg of sorts.
    I think if that is intentional, then that's really cool and frames things a little better, though I can’t say it really fixes the issues of tension for me. It does however make it really hard to actually qualify why those issues exist. Maybe it’s because fusion is an obvious out? I don’t know.
    Either way, this is really interesting stuff, and hopefully I can sit down with other fans and discuss it in a video soon!
    Thoughts?

    I always thought of Broly as a really cool concept that severely lacked in execution, so it's really nice to hear that he got an overhaul in terms of his character. What you said in this video and what I heard about the movie until now makes me think of a more shonen-friendly version of Guts from later parts of Berserk, with somewhat similar traits and character development, which I can totally get behind

    So what I'm getting is narratively, it's alright with some really strong character writing, albeit a bit clumped together at some points, until the action starts it kinds forgets it and becomes a wild balls to the walls fight after fight. So kinda what I expected. Sounds like Broly when he isn't fighting is actually a good character now.

      DarkFalcon This is how I think of it. Broly obviously loses his mind when he fights, and turns into a beast. Frieza will take advantage of this to turn him against the Saiyans while Goku and Vegeta try to handle the main threat (The actual villian) while trying to convince Broly to aid them and break through Friezas grasp of it.

Ultimately, the draw of this film, and of this franchise as a whole really, has been its spectacle and especially the heart of its subversive characters; if those are present in the film, narrative and theming criticisms simply become side-notes that I don't particularly feel was ever applicable to Dragon Ball ever since its conception. Especially once we heard Toriyama was at the helm; he's certainly talented, but not quite that type of talented to bringing meaning to something, and he hasn't brought any themes full-circle in a while now. Of course, that's what makes Dragon Ball all its own, and appealing to the myriad of fans it's bewitched. If I'm looking for something with narrative strength, I'd gladly watch something besides Dragon Ball to get my fill
    A great detailed review though; there is quite a bit that was glanced over and could use further elaboration, but those are nothing short of nitpicks

    After finally watching the film for myself I can honestly say I was blown away. I kept my expectations on story and character low but even if I hadn't I think this film would have exceeded what I expected from modern dragon ball. As far as one point you mentioned. I can understand feeling the fight somewhat lacked tension but I think that is only true if you look at vegeta and goku as the heroes. However in this case I almost feel that they are more obstacles meant for broly to overcome. I think we all can agree broly is the protagonist and as such he is framed as the relatable underdog through out the course of the film. We see this especially in the fight as he is the one repeatedly pushed to the edge in order to try and match his opponent. It honestly made me think of goku versus freeza. Of course we know the heroes will win it doesnt make sense for them not to considering the stakes. Instead the conflict is what will become of broly. Will he die? Will he end up with the heroes? Or will he end up with freeza. That is the real drama of the fight and when viewed through that lense it is much more interesting

The fact that Broly is a kind and sentimental character makes him more interesting to see. So maybe in the future, we'll see that side of him more. And I hope they expand more on the past as well. There's just a lot of potential for the future of Dragon Ball because of this movie, that's why I'm so excited to see it.

    Cool review dude, some of the points you brought up I didn't consider like the lack of tension. However, I do get what you meant about there not being enough time spent on certain story beats and character moments. Personally, I loved the film, it was one of the most beautiful, intense, hilarious and visceral experiences I've had in the cinema.
    I know a lot of my love is purely based on my overall love for this franchise, but I really did like the more dramatic and emotional elements added to the story with the stuff in the past or Broly's upbringing. The humour was great especially with Frieza and Bulma, and those action sequence almost melted my mind with how glorious it all was.

    Having watched the movie in English dub, I have to say, I agree with most if not all of everything you've said here. Broly's character was largely undeveloped and unutialized though reestablished well overall. The animation is sublime, superb, and spectacular, but ultimately in service to a plot that feels kind of rushed and shallow with little to no tension at all. ...
    And I'm not sure it was me or if it was just the translation from Japenese to English Dub put I often felt that there were serious moments in the movie that were ruined by the presentation of the dub. Such as a the crucial moment in the film when Broly transforms into his Legendary Super Saiyan form. The way Frieza sounds is so silly and overly dramatic (though I know that it can be argued that, that is the point considering Frieza's character and Toriyama's light-hearted style of writing) , but that could be forgiven if Broly's response to the situation was more human, or characterized, instead of him just yelling some more and hulking out!
    Anyway I've heard, though I'm not sure if it's true, there is going to be an extended version of the film later on. I'm looking forward to that as well as watching the film with subs to make my overall final judgement on the film. but I agree, as it is. I seriously hope that if there isn't an extended film version, that the TV retelling is done well and in depth.

    if this is the case, and the cutting of the story makes it more rushed and more black and white than it would be preferred, i think this is the one time having something like Super as a Tv series re-tell it would actually be an amazing option. unlike Battle Of Gods or Res F, which either didn't need to be expanded or simply didn't need to be mentioned, having the series be able to take those 3 hours into an extended arc would be perfect. there's no time limit, especially for Toei, and they can really focus on points if they want to. i just want them to not touch it. that's all. if they do this, and they change it around, i feel the experience can only be worsened. because it is Toei.
    also want to see Vic Mignogna get a chance at the Broly voice outside of screaming Goku's name. obviously this wont be during the fight scene, as you've established he has next to zero lines, but that introverted "i'm being forced to go shopping by my dad" Broly is one i'm happy to go see in theater's in January.

    When I was young I absolutely loved Dragon Ball for its action alone. Now I’m older, my tastes in anime/manga are more fine-tuned. It’s no longer enough to give me good action, I want a well-written story that makes sense, and characters that are well-written and do things that make sense for their character. Broly sounds like Jiren to me: a character who was written beautifully, but when it comes down the climax of the action, all that is thrown aside to make a thoughtless, overpowered behemoth who cares about nothing but winning the fight. It’s like they dumped their tragic, sympathetic character who has a lot to learn from meeting Goku and seeing what he did with his life, in favor the hulking, type A villain who only knows how to destroy. It’s like they were telling me, hey forget about this person you are now who wants your villains to make sense and be somewhat relatable, and remember that kid you were that just wanted to see nuclear ki blasts getting thrown everywhere. I’ll prob watch it some point, but I’m not falling over myself to see it. Nostalgia can only do so much for me.

    A point on the tension.
    I think the tension isn’t whether Goku or Vegeta will survive, the obvious answer is no given that we know that they are alive after the ten year time skip, but rather if Broly will. Nearing the end of the battle that he had little to no chance of winning and add how this is his first appearance as an antagonist in a Dragon Ball Movie which have a tendency to have their antagonists die by the end there was the expectation that he may not survive. Something I desperately didn’t want to happen since he was such a sympathetic character who I found charming. *THAT* is where the tension lies I think
