Did they think Dragonball Evolution's remedial effects would make it an acceptable, if brain dead, entertainment in this day and age? Because other than the implicit promise of spectacle, all this adaptation of the popular anime series gives you is tons and tons and tons of exposition to introduce its many characters, genre tropes of all stripes, and epic back story. Result: At once impenetrable and boring. I'll freely admit I wasn't a Dragonball fan going in, but I hear fans weren't any more enchanted by it. What I've seen of the show seem decontracted to the point of showing two people screaming at each other before a fight for the length of an episode; by contrast, the movie tries to jam too much into its fewer than 90 minutes, jumping from one thing to the other as you progressively lose the plot. 7 years 2 months ago -
