I knew, I knew Dragon Ball move will be a huge disappointment. But I just HAVE to see how bad it is. Well, thirty minutes into the movie and I felt like crying. And since
reguretto made her points...
1. Do I even have to say anything about the plot adaption? Teenage flick? I thought high school Dragon Ball only exists in fanfictions.
2. The one who played Goku, he can't act. Sadly, he's the main character so I had to see him act a lot.
3. Yamcha. NO. NO. Is he supposed to be hot/funky asian guy? FAIL. The scene where he and Bulma nearly kissed? I cringed.
4. Modernization of Dragon Ball radar? Cheap-looking.
5. I'd have to agree with reguretto, what's with "First rule is, there are no rules"? So? From what I'm watching, they sure have a lot of rules in training themselves to get stronger.
6. Bulma was supposed to be my favorite character in Dragon Ball. Sadly, she fell bland. As if she was only something you pasted into the movie.
You know what, for once I'm grateful that such manga-adopted movie is so fast-paced. I don't care how many gaps and holes that movie has. Or else I might've walked out halfway into the movie.
I do have to give kudos to Chow Yun Fat. Great job with the character. See? You don't have to look exactly like the character to liven it up.
AND THANK GOD THERE'S NO VEGETA IN THE MOVIE. Don't ruin my earliest crush.
Please pretend I didn't see the after-credit clip hinting a second movie
