@@Merjedmedia Favorite part of that movie. When they botched the fusion I was like, man, Frieza's got to take that ass whooping for 30 minutes. Then they botched it again XD Priceless!
Tahraki491 but I’m sure you won’t start to watch this since the very beginning of dragon ball. When goku was a kid. If you do then my respect because that’s how it should be. You won’t see all the action you saw on broly movie in dragon ball. But knowing it from re very begs its awesome
It is a mistake to watch a movie before watching everything that comes before it. Same with star wars. It's why I will never watch Infinity war before everything else in Marvel.
That part was my absolute favorite! It was finally a part where I didn't need to laugh along. (although the frieza and bulma wishes were extremely funny too)
I really enjoyed the movie but I felt That I was watching a superman origin history (Goku being an extraterrestrial sent to Earth) in which later he fights the "Hulk" (aka Broly)--> the angrier he gets the more powerful he is (he even has a green Ki)
dude are we not gonna talk about the last lines of the movie? "Hey whats your name?" "Goku, But Broly call me Kakarot" *instant Transmission* Holy shit i loved those lines
2018,19 was actually a big disappointment in Hollywood, (IW,DP2,) were only good movie that I was hyped for rest all sucks hard. Really hard. (In 2019 endgame(because I am hulk and Thor fan and use my brain). But this movie doesn't disappoint at all.
@LeBron James This is why kids shouldn't watch the movie they don't deserve. EDIT:It's people like u ,who have no points to back up your opinion are the cancer of TH-cam.
I honestly feel bad for any dragon ball “fan” that watched this movie online instead of experiencing it for yourself the reaction in theater is a priceless moment I’ll never forget.
I'm happy I got to watch in great quality but audience laughs at every scene like it's comedy gold it's cancer. I couldn't hear like 3% of the movie because of frequent laughs and cheers. It's a great experience to watch it opening day and be part of history regardless though
There was one group a few rows behind me that was going "OOH" and laughing at some parts, like the Frieza wish and the scenes where Broly wails on Frieza. It made the whole thing enjoyable to me, being there with people who were as hyped up as I was.
Toriyama always writes, the difference is how much he feels like writing. For the TOP, it was a few dot points and it shows. For this, it was originally around a 3 hour film that they cut to 100 minutes. Which to me felt better but it seemed obvious large parts were cut.
@@springthyme501 yes but toriyama never had a hand in creating the first broly. That is why he never had an arc. But now they finally let him create broly again
For ex. Toriyama wrote the last episode of super and it was an extremely satisfying ending unlike most of the other arc endings where he writes points he wrote the whole last episode
Light Yagami Superhero movie? Goku and Vegeta aren't really superheroes, but I can kinda see what you mean. Either way it's a fucking bangin movie. Lol
@Merciless Freak Doesn't being a super hero mean being a person with SUPER powers and saving the world from the forces of evil from world domination/destruction? If so then dragon ball super Broly IS the greatest super hero movie in the world by ratings
@Merciless Freak What do you mean not ratings it shows that its worth watching rather than avoid at all cost unless you have a better idea also this movie was meant for an exciting story (hopefully not like super which it is) because its Broly not to mention actual new moves with ki blasts what you talking about
Hotcheetojuice he is gone because he turned his back on dragon ball. Yea I understand super was far from perfect but never and I mean never turn your back on dragon ball
This is the best DB movie I've seen. Making Broly an actual character instead of a mindless brute worked wonders. The story behind his outfit was quite heartwarming. Incredible visuals made the action epic and exciting. Great humor and I especially loved how meta this movie was. The winks to the camera had me laughing multiple times. The prologue was absolutely fantastic. The retcons there actually improved on what we already know. They didn't drop the ball with the ending either. I'm glad they went that route with the conclusion. Remarkably satisfying.
@@shedontwantme7769 I'm glad he didn't. I don't want them overusing ultra instinct like they do for SSB in the manga and the anime. Ultra instinct should only be used when a foe cannot be beaten by other way, the last resort.
I want to watch it.. But I live in sweden and I have no clue how long i'll have to wait before I get a chance to watch it. It most likely won't be coming to our cinema's. So im stuck hoping for it to be pirated online.
Just saw it tonight. I love the new animation style. It was really good and can’t wait to buy it on Blu ray. I might need to see it a second time in theaters.
I had a big issue with the jarring switches to different animation engines in the movie. Each style looked good in it's own right, but suddenly shifting from 2D animation to cell shaded 3D models was distractingly noticeable.
Honestly, this is probably the most accessible Dragon Ball movie for non-fans. It focuses on just a few characters and treats the villain as the protagonist so that viewers can invest themselves on Broly being introduced into the franchise.
@@jackisantiago6018 ...because he was a rage machine that was completely out of control at that moment? Why the fuck else? I don't understand why anyone watching the movie would "lose its mind" during that moment.
@@Melkac Because Whis is supposed to be one of the strongest beings in the multiverse. Whis disabled lord beerus by flicking that dude on the neck. He also disabled Goku and Vegeta like nothing. No one knows how strong he really is and it was hinted before the movie that he was going to see some fight action. People were probably just anticipating a badass fight scene with Broly and Whis.
I saw my brother watching it as he grew up so I kinda understand the plot in general. I know the characters and stuff. My son, who is now 12 "forced" me to watch it with him and thanks to my brother I was simply fascinated about it. Oh, those fights! I'm super glad for having watching it.
This movie is not that hard to understand for non DB fans. Even the viewers who haven't watch DB or don't know anything about DB can simply understand this movie. At the start of the movie all the lead characters are introduced which was Goku, Vegita, Broly and Freeza and as he destroyed planet Vegita, people will simply understand that Freeza is the villain and Goku and Vegeta are the heros of this film. Also fans will not need to understand any previous info about Broly as this movie tells all about him. The part where non DB fans will face problem is with Transformations and Fusion. But still the plot is very easy for non DB fans to understand. So this movie is not as complicated as Revival of F since viewers will need to know the Namek saga and Battle of Gods.
Just saw it too, this is one of my all time favorite Dragonball movies, if not my top favorite. Man, they made Broly a complete character, I was not expecting that. They also didn't forget about how much of a maniac he was in those old films. When he loses it, he loses it in a big way like we loved.
Love the end, very interested to see where things go now. If you would have told me i would feel that way about broly 10 years I woulda said not in this universe.
@Timmy Ryan nah it ain't it's still strong and more popular than u think, the first opening day had a box office miracle of earning over $7 million while making it the #1 movie in america
@@timelord2052 I'm from Argentina, In our cinemas when it comes to famous animes like DBZ they do not put the subtitled versions (Maybe it's the same in US) very few cinemas do it and luckily I found one at 01:00 AM took it
@@fbi7371 I see, its makes sense now thats cool u got experience the japanese dub for yourself even tho i like the English dub for dragonball I still love the original dub and I would've loved to see it with the japanese cast!
@@iwasbornintelligentbuteduc6893 The decline of Gohan and Piccolo started in the Buu saga not DB Super. That's a poor excuse for ruining two of the best developed characters in DBZ.
Well, now the Z fighters will be Vegeta, Goku, Beerus and Whis (so, the God's squad, as you said) and *SPOILER* Broly. I agree though, Piccolo and Gohan need to be relevant again.
I binged-watched the whole DBS Series in two weeks just to get caught up and understand why Frieza was (Once Again) Resurrected. Man what a movie and the series was just awesome!
My only gripe about the animation was that the CGI was a little jarring and the 2D animation dropped in quality for 30 seconds when Goku and Vegeta were talking about fusing. However I do agree it was solid animation.
This movie surpassed all of my expectations. I love DBZ and Super, but the movies by-and-large are not that entertaining (Abridged does a great job with them though). This movie, though, was so damn good! You DO give a shit about Broly when you watch it, and the fact that they left him alive for more battles and whatnot was such a good decision.
I realized my eyes were watery after NOT BLINKING for so long during the Fights. I didn't want to blink because the animation was so badass and fast-paced that I was stunned. The SOUNDS were awesome too. I agree... this is the 1st Dragon Ball movie I saw that feels like an actual story and feels important. One of the best movies I've seen at the theaters atleast since Spider-Man: into the Spiderverse.
It jump started the series again but overall it really didn't do anything for DB Super since it was rewritten for the show. Although they might do the same with this movie when the new season starts, though I hope not. Making this movie episodic will just ruin the magic since it won't have a movie budget anymore and will look worse because of it and drag on longer then it needs to be.
Captain Kon'Doriano stop hating for no reason when all the other shounen anime are being milked endlessly too. DBS wasn’t even bad, and what really gets me is that some people think it’s worse than GT😂
@@captainkondoriano7869 I always found this argument stupid. Why wouldn't you want a series to go on forever? It's not like the show suddenly loses its first few seasons. I would much prefer a release outside of the original story for the rest of my life, if its my favorite show, than just have a few seasons of a really good show. If they ruin it at season 10, at least you still have a couple of good seasons of your favorite show -- while the original seasons are STILL as good, nothing is changing that.
This movie is by far the best movie in the entire series, it is more interested in me than z, since Super has come out, I thought the series is only going downhill, and now I hope that if they continue the series, they will do it just like in this movie, They finally give too respect to vegeta, the film is so different that the series was, I felt there was more depth this time
Chris I'm genuinely happy for you. You've seemed down as of late so I'm glad one of your anticipated movies delivered. I'm so excited, Brolly is finally cannon! He was wasted for so many years.
Bro it was amazing, The fun parts, The fighting! There was apart in the fight when they made it look like you where Broly and I lost my mind, when Goku told Broly to call him Kakarot. Goku never liked that name but yo 🙌🏻😂🙌🏻😂🙌🏻
To be honest, I believe Goku shared that name because Broly, like him, is a Saiyan. Goku might have been brought up on Earth, but he still has that Saiyan instinct to fight someone stronger and get even better. When he said that he would like to teach Broly a thing or two, it was a reference to how Saiyans, in their time I believe, used to train. He wanted to let Broly know that he still has a Saiyan to trust.
just finished watching the movie and went straight here to see what you thought! also, Sonny Strait, the voice actor for Bardock/Krillin, was at my showing and surprised everyone there!
3 things...1.I just love the fact that they made canon one of the best non-canon character desing in all of Dragonball. The new design and backstory for Broly is perfect, a way better way to introduce him to the canon than in the other movie of Broly...he hated Goku's crying ? Was dumb, great for TFS parody...2. Love where they could go with this character after this movie, it give a great post tournament arc to Super, i want more from them !! . 3.They found a way to make Gogeta cooler somehow than in the Janemba movie...i love it ! Also i want more of planet Vegeta backstory !! That was great !! Should they save or make canon another movie vilain ? What do you think ? Bringing back Tapion and Hildegard maybe ?
I haven’t seen the movie yet, but from what I’ve heard and based on this review is it worth going to watch this weekend? (Also, some people have posted a little poster/movie card. Does this come with the purchase of the movie ticket?)
ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE! I have no words. I loved it soooo much! Art: 10/10. Animation: 10/10. Humor: 10/10. Fighting choreography: 10/10. It just gave me that good ol' Dragon Ball goosebumps and it made me so happy!
Same here man. Here at my Regal theatre tonight, there was a sold out show of 300 dbz fans who ALL ordered large popcorns...god have mercy on my broom and pan...
A little unrelated, but during the World Cup, Japanese fans cleaned after themselves after the game. Just bringing this up because it would be cool if we cool appreciate and learn the positive things from their culture.
I’m a long time DB fan (since the 90’s) and I LOVED this movie!! The writing and animation was amazing and I found myself wishing there was another 30min added to the movie to extend certain parts. The fight scenes was so well choreographed too. Literally loved it all (the cgi didn’t even bug me).
I really loved the scene when broly and Goku first start to get down. When the camra is a pov of broly. Just amazing watching the chase. Go watch this everyone!!!!
This is awesome I know people were scared about the anime for this movie when they discussed they were going to put a pause on the next Saga for the movie and hearing your review is very refreshing and exciting
When I was watching this movie, there were a bunch of kids, all probably under 10, in the cinema sitting behind me. Some of them kept talking and eating loudly, which annoyed me greatly, but I did my best to ignore them. Eventually, they were chasing each other around the theatre, giggling and yelling like the place was a playground - the theatre was very empty. The children and their parents were gone before the big fight with Broly (thank goodness).
You said the we're "some" of the most impressive battles out of dragon Ball but I daresay they were the absolute best out of dragon Ball and any other action anime I've seen. Each battle was actually seamlessly choreographed with no repeating frames and still depicted their speed feats perfectly
I was blown away by just how good this movie was. It felt like there was a real passion behind it in a way there hasn't been since the Buu or maybe even the Cell saga
If I was alone in the theatre I would have been yelling. It was so insane. My eyes couldn't believe the beauty in the animation and just the ferocity and the heart out into this movie. I haven't bought a movie in a long time but I'm buying tf out of this movie.
i litterally was alone, got to see the last showing last night, and let me tell you i was so happy i was only person in the theatre, i was screaming and yelling the entire time, def da only way i want to see a dragon ball movie from now on !!!!!
I remember driving 30 mins to watch this movie and it was amazing the amount of fans that came out just for the film. And the fight scene got us all hype.
Toriyama did such an amazing job. I expected great fights but I never expected such a decent story. I really felt watching Bardock and Gine saying goodbye to Goku. And I understood and empathised with Broly.
Adnan Asif Bruh, nobody thinks this was made by the same studio as Evolution. It's a purely hypothetical apology, just like Spider-Verse isn't literally an apology for anything. They're both their own films. And you do realize that it is rumored that the original creator, Akira Toriyama, got as involved in the creation of Battle of Gods as he did partially because he did not like a lot of the early creative decisions and wanted to avoid another DB Evolution.
Loved the new details they added to combat too. Like Goku trying to clear Broly's energy away in order to go super saiyan blue. I never saw that before. Or the brief white hair before going blue, nice easter egg to ultra instinct.
Hey Chris. Huge fan here. You're literally my favorite TH-camr. I was curious to know if you've seen the Suspiria remake and had plans to review it on your channel.
When a movie has a 40 minute fight scene. And it keeps you gripped fully. You know its good
And those 40 minutes fly by because it's so fucking good!! I love it so much
Hell yeah

@@timelord2052 I'm from Argentina, In our cinemas when it comes to famous animes like DBZ they do not put the subtitled versions (Maybe it's the same in US) very few cinemas do it and luckily I found one at 01:00 AM took it
@@fbi7371 I see, its makes sense now thats cool u got experience the japanese dub for yourself even tho i like the English dub for dragonball I still love the original dub and I would've loved to see it with the japanese cast!
I personally think this was the best Dragon Ball story to date. It had real character development and emotion. It was amazing.
Look nobody wants a sad Goku. But we need Gohan and Piccolo to do something compelling. Z fighters have become the Vegeta, Goku and God's Squad
Sadly with DB Super villains Gohan, Piccolo and the rest of the crew don't stand a chance.
Maybe but they can train with gods too
@@iwasbornintelligentbuteduc6893 The decline of Gohan and Piccolo started in the Buu saga not DB Super. That's a poor excuse for ruining two of the best developed characters in DBZ.
@@supersaiyangoddess4293 Piccolo yes, but Gohan was still powerful in the Buu saga. But yea nothing compared to main villains in DBS
Well, now the Z fighters will be Vegeta, Goku, Beerus and Whis (so, the God's squad, as you said) and
*SPOILER*
Broly. I agree though, Piccolo and Gohan need to be relevant again.
I almost cried when Goku's mom cried
I binged-watched the whole DBS Series in two weeks just to get caught up and understand why Frieza was (Once Again) Resurrected. Man what a movie and the series was just awesome!
Can't wait to see it
The animation in this is *GOD TIER*
My only gripe about the animation was that the CGI was a little jarring and the 2D animation dropped in quality for 30 seconds when Goku and Vegeta were talking about fusing. However I do agree it was solid animation.
The animation is great for Dragon Ball standards but it's not amazing for the standards of anime in general.
@@VincentsVideoVisions Actually not lol, it was even better that mha movie and some others.
@@VincentsVideoVisions it actually is though
And I don't even care that much about Dragon Ball
The animation is Lv 35 Boss
IMAX was so worth it this was a great movie
hell yeah it was
I dont have IMAX in my city, but I'm debating to go to one out of town haha. I already saw the movie but I'd love it in IMAX
Oh my imax was playing Glass You bastard had to watch this in regular
Watched theater print but still worth it
This movie surpassed all of my expectations. I love DBZ and Super, but the movies by-and-large are not that entertaining (Abridged does a great job with them though). This movie, though, was so damn good! You DO give a shit about Broly when you watch it, and the fact that they left him alive for more battles and whatnot was such a good decision.
It's crazy. In a way, we were all in our heads secretly hoping that Broly Wouldn't Die
I realized my eyes were watery after NOT BLINKING for so long during the Fights. I didn't want to blink because the animation was so badass and fast-paced that I was stunned. The SOUNDS were awesome too. I agree... this is the 1st Dragon Ball movie I saw that feels like an actual story and feels important. One of the best movies I've seen at the theaters atleast since Spider-Man: into the Spiderverse.
Loki: We have a Hulk
Frieza: We have a Canon Broly
Okay, I agree with everything in this video. HOWEVER, Battle of Gods made a HUGE impact on the series!
It jump started the series again but overall it really didn't do anything for DB Super since it was rewritten for the show.
Although they might do the same with this movie when the new season starts, though I hope not. Making this movie episodic will just ruin the magic since it won't have a movie budget anymore and will look worse because of it and drag on longer then it needs to be.
The arc itself jump started a series that was on finished for more than 2 decades! I’m pretty sure that’s a big impact...
Yeah it inspired the company to keep milking the franchise to oblivion instead of leaving it alone with what little integrity it had left.
Captain Kon'Doriano stop hating for no reason when all the other shounen anime are being milked endlessly too. DBS wasn’t even bad, and what really gets me is that some people think it’s worse than GT😂
@@captainkondoriano7869 I always found this argument stupid. Why wouldn't you want a series to go on forever? It's not like the show suddenly loses its first few seasons. I would much prefer a release outside of the original story for the rest of my life, if its my favorite show, than just have a few seasons of a really good show. If they ruin it at season 10, at least you still have a couple of good seasons of your favorite show -- while the original seasons are STILL as good, nothing is changing that.
This movie is by far the best movie in the entire series, it is more interested in me than z, since Super has come out, I thought the series is only going downhill, and now I hope that if they continue the series, they will do it just like in this movie, They finally give too respect to vegeta, the film is so different that the series was, I felt there was more depth this time
I always knew Goku was japanese Superman, but man the first 20min really shoved it in our faces. I still loved it.
He's not meant to be superman and if you realize that I feel you'll enjoy it even more
Changed Username yea
I kinda wish they didn't show Gogeta before the movie actually came out. I would've lost my mind.
Ya boi Kelpy G that was a bad move imo, gladly I didn't watch any trailer besides the first two so still impressed me
@@alonsoiriartewachtendorff2084 same but I got ruined with a Stupid ad from Bandai Namco as soon as I opened TH-cam.
I showed this movie to a person who's never watched dragon ball before, he freaking loved it
the 40 minute fight scene was sooo good it felt like it was maybe 6 minutes. I will forever be a DB fan
When you grow up watching this series and get to see an awsome movie like this leaves you in complete Euphoria 😁
Brolys mannerisms reminds me of Tarzan lol it's cute
Mynson Anderson That's exactly what I was thinking.
He even looks like Tarzan in his base form. Lol
I love this new Broly so much.
He was primitive here lol
Convinced my girl friend to see it with me. HYPED.
Ayyyy
I did the same thing bro.
LOL How did it go?
@@MundaneMuserLoved it. She use to watch it with her brothers, so she got the gist of what was going on.
@@Samsonimages You are such a soy boy.
Chris I'm genuinely happy for you. You've seemed down as of late so I'm glad one of your anticipated movies delivered. I'm so excited, Brolly is finally cannon! He was wasted for so many years.
Not only was this movie amazing, but the music!!!! Was amazing
Go Broly Go Go!
Kakarot! (O-EEHH-O)
Gogeta! Gogeta Gogeta! (O-EEHH-O) 🎶🎶🎶
The song ruined the fighting for me.
Thy 72eaper then get better taste
It pumps you up bro
@@theOneThatWas That's funny, it made the battle even better for me. Still, gotta respect your opinion, bro.
GOGETA, GOGETA, GOGETA! 🔥
@@DanielITravel It didnt. Idk why.
Bro it was amazing, The fun parts, The fighting! There was apart in the fight when they made it look like you where Broly and I lost my mind, when Goku told Broly to call him Kakarot. Goku never liked that name but yo 🙌🏻😂🙌🏻😂🙌🏻
yeah it seemed kinda out of pIace tbh xD but maybe it was a throwback to the oId broIy movies where thats aII broIy wouId say IoI
To be honest, I believe Goku shared that name because Broly, like him, is a Saiyan. Goku might have been brought up on Earth, but he still has that Saiyan instinct to fight someone stronger and get even better. When he said that he would like to teach Broly a thing or two, it was a reference to how Saiyans, in their time I believe, used to train. He wanted to let Broly know that he still has a Saiyan to trust.
Agreed that Broly POV shot was fkn dope!
*SPOILERS AHEAD*
Not only did we get canon Broly, we also got canon Gogeta.
BEST PART of the movie.
When Frieza got straight DRAGGED!!!! 😂😂😂😂
just finished watching the movie and went straight here to see what you thought! also, Sonny Strait, the voice actor for Bardock/Krillin, was at my showing and surprised everyone there!
Wait, Battle of Gods felt like a "fun offshoot" to you? How? HOW?!
Yeah I don't agree with that part, rewatching it again and its a solid film and man did it change everything for the series
I agree with you. It literally spawned another Dragon Ball series!
It is finally a movie which is more Vegeta-centric.
It actually was the main part of super's existence not an offshoot at all
Well technically, Battle of the Gods is not Canon since they remade the scenario for the show.
Wow what a review !!!!!! I had my doubts but I'm going to see it with a relative with confidence!! Thanks!
3 things...1.I just love the fact that they made canon one of the best non-canon character desing in all of Dragonball. The new design and backstory for Broly is perfect, a way better way to introduce him to the canon than in the other movie of Broly...he hated Goku's crying ? Was dumb, great for TFS parody...2. Love where they could go with this character after this movie, it give a great post tournament arc to Super, i want more from them !! . 3.They found a way to make Gogeta cooler somehow than in the Janemba movie...i love it ! Also i want more of planet Vegeta backstory !! That was great !! Should they save or make canon another movie vilain ? What do you think ? Bringing back Tapion and Hildegard maybe ?
Who else ships broly with space bulma?
Just wait until he meets Kale
I do
Cheelai an Broly are definitely a thing
@@sendouaichi97 they are so cute together
I heard she kept shitting on Paragus for no reason.
Fighting in this movie was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 AF!!!!!!!! It was F@&King beautiful!!!!
I haven’t seen the movie yet, but from what I’ve heard and based on this review is it worth going to watch this weekend? (Also, some people have posted a little poster/movie card. Does this come with the purchase of the movie ticket?)
This is By Far the Best Dragonball movie..The Fight Scenes Literally gave me Goosbumps🔥🔥..My God, Absolutely amazing
I’m glad you enjoyed it lol. Might need to check this out!
Thank You Chris. Your one of the only mainstream critics I listen to for a review of a film. Especially like a film like Dragon Ball.
ABSOLUTE MASTERPIECE! I have no words. I loved it soooo much! Art: 10/10. Animation: 10/10. Humor: 10/10. Fighting choreography: 10/10. It just gave me that good ol' Dragon Ball goosebumps and it made me so happy!
Thanks man didn’t know what to expect going in, haven’t seen it yet but now I’m stoked. Glad to hear we finally get a good overall DB movie.
I work at a theatre. Just got through cleaning a dirty ass theatre full of Dragonball fans. They came 30 minutes early to watch it
Lol
Same here man. Here at my Regal theatre tonight, there was a sold out show of 300 dbz fans who ALL ordered large popcorns...god have mercy on my broom and pan...
I feel your pain man
A little unrelated, but during the World Cup, Japanese fans cleaned after themselves after the game. Just bringing this up because it would be cool if we cool appreciate and learn the positive things from their culture.
Battle Rifle I farted in the seats
Chris grew up with Dragon Ball
Tell that to zod snapped neck
Didn't all of us?!?
We all did, bruh. We all did.
Everyone did.
I’m a long time DB fan (since the 90’s) and I LOVED this movie!! The writing and animation was amazing and I found myself wishing there was another 30min added to the movie to extend certain parts.
The fight scenes was so well choreographed too. Literally loved it all (the cgi didn’t even bug me).
WATCHING THIS TODAY! PRE-ORDERED TICKET MONTH AGO! I'M SO HYPED!!!
Still waiting on you to review *Yu-Gi-Oh: Dark Side of Dimensions*
I really loved the scene when broly and Goku first start to get down. When the camra is a pov of broly. Just amazing watching the chase. Go watch this everyone!!!!
That part was gangster as shit, once I realized the perspective I was like oh shit we going for a ride.
Especially when he pulled a Hulk and repeatedly slammed Goku like a ragdoll...while he was in his Super Saiyan God form.
I was waiting and disappointed that he didn't say "puny god" he was in God form!!!! Maybe a copy right thing.. But still!! Worth it!
Congrats on 2 million subscribers!
This is awesome I know people were scared about the anime for this movie when they discussed they were going to put a pause on the next Saga for the movie and hearing your review is very refreshing and exciting
When I was watching this movie, there were a bunch of kids, all probably under 10, in the cinema sitting behind me. Some of them kept talking and eating loudly, which annoyed me greatly, but I did my best to ignore them. Eventually, they were chasing each other around the theatre, giggling and yelling like the place was a playground - the theatre was very empty. The children and their parents were gone before the big fight with Broly (thank goodness).
This is the first anime I've watched in cinema cause I'm a long time fan of Broly. After watching it, I was so happy about it.
Dude where did you get that shirt! If you have the link still can you post it?
You said the we're "some" of the most impressive battles out of dragon Ball but I daresay they were the absolute best out of dragon Ball and any other action anime I've seen. Each battle was actually seamlessly choreographed with no repeating frames and still depicted their speed feats perfectly
The Director Tatsuya Nagamine also directed One Piece Film Z. But he co-directed Dragon Ball Super
Wow an A++++ and saying it was better than 2001: A Space Odyssey? You're a bold critic Chris.
Jessie Garcia Melon has evolved
I was blown away by just how good this movie was. It felt like there was a real passion behind it in a way there hasn't been since the Buu or maybe even the Cell saga
Is there a place i can watch all the Dragon Ball Super episodes in english? Haven't seen them yet
If I was alone in the theatre I would have been yelling. It was so insane. My eyes couldn't believe the beauty in the animation and just the ferocity and the heart out into this movie. I haven't bought a movie in a long time but I'm buying tf out of this movie.
i litterally was alone, got to see the last showing last night, and let me tell you i was so happy i was only person in the theatre, i was screaming and yelling the entire time, def da only way i want to see a dragon ball movie from now on !!!!!
The audience was not nearly as hyped as me and my friend were
Chris, what's the exact movie title you mentioned -- comparing to the "far better" animation of this new movie of Super Brolly ?
I remember driving 30 mins to watch this movie and it was amazing the amount of fans that came out just for the film. And the fight scene got us all hype.
Toriyama did such an amazing job. I expected great fights but I never expected such a decent story. I really felt watching Bardock and Gine saying goodbye to Goku. And I understood and empathised with Broly.
Toriyama can write excellent stories. He did write all of Dragon Ball from Pilaf up to the Buu saga after all.
If Spider-Verse was Sony's apology for the Emoji Movie, than this was Dragon Ball's ultimate apology for Evolution.
Best DB movie hands down.
Bro
This movie was not made by Hollywood
Adnan Asif Doesn’t mean foreign studios can’t be just as cucked
@@armward69
I didn't say that
Adnan Asif Bruh, nobody thinks this was made by the same studio as Evolution. It's a purely hypothetical apology, just like Spider-Verse isn't literally an apology for anything. They're both their own films.
And you do realize that it is rumored that the original creator, Akira Toriyama, got as involved in the creation of Battle of Gods as he did partially because he did not like a lot of the early creative decisions and wanted to avoid another DB Evolution.
Adnan Asif Also, I wrote " *Dragon Ball's* ultimate apology for Evolution ", not " Hollywood's ".
Learn to read.
Where did you watch it at ??? Its not in stores
Loved the new details they added to combat too. Like Goku trying to clear Broly's energy away in order to go super saiyan blue. I never saw that before.
Or the brief white hair before going blue, nice easter egg to ultra instinct.
I hope we see Broly in the next story arch
Batitcous Prime when DBS comes back. That will be the first story arc
This movie wont be in the anime. Goku mentions Broly in the new arc
Instead of Screaming KAKAROT and he actually has a meaning of being a character
I mean...he kinda just screams in general but sure. I get what ur trying to say
As someone who has not finished db super, will I be lost or should I be fine? I am at the Goku Black Arc, last time I checked...it's been a while.
Hey Chris. Huge fan here. You're literally my favorite TH-camr. I was curious to know if you've seen the Suspiria remake and had plans to review it on your channel.
