Where to Watch Dragonball Evolution
- LivewireAdmin3 de febrero de 2026Growing up in the late 90's/00's a Dragon Ball Z movie was a pipe dream. I remember scouring the toonami message boards, looking over everyone's fan casting and of course submitting my own. I honestly think DBZ is one of those stories that can't be translated outside of manga/anime. There's really no way to do Goku's hair in live action lol let alone ki blasts. But they did finally try to do an adaptation in 2009 and it's about as good as you'd think. Watching it now I think the vibe they were going for was 2002's Spider-Man—they put Goku in high school, they made him the kid that gets picked on, his love interest was also in high school and the death of a loved one is what sets him out on his journey. I liked Emmy Rossum as Bulma but why not fully commit to the blue hair? Jaime Chung as Chi-Chi was good as well but I just didn't care for the high school storylines. Is this the worst movie I've ever seen? no. Is it close? maybe? I don't think my body will let me fully hate on the movie considering DBZ was my childhood.
- travi514130 de diciembre de 2025I am a Huge Dragon Ball Z, GT, Super, ect Fan. This movie makes me sick and dirty. It is the Worst movie I have ever seen. They got EVERYTHING wrong. The Characters, story, powers, everything!! The Director wrote an Article 5 years later Apologizing to the fand confessing he did it for money. I would enjoy the worst rated, controversial movie off all time with I big grin knowing I am not watching this crap. Avatar the last Air Bender by M. Night Shamalan is a Oscor winner masterpiece compared to DB Evolution. Man I hate this movie.
- BEAULONEA27 de noviembre de 2025This movie was so 2000s it was painful. Made in the era when Hollywood felt the need to make everything “cool,” as if what fans loved about the source material just weren’t good enough. You can see moments where they lean into the silliness and charm that Dragon Ball is known for, but then watch as they snuff the life out of it. The whole thing feeling more like a parody than a genuine attempt at a Dragon Ball movie. Just an awkward adaptation that completely misses what made the original work in the first place.
