Reviews that is.  For the newly released feature film adaptation of the beloved Japanese property and occasional video game.  Here are a couple of reviews from the sister site, the Blu-ray written by yours truly, the DVD version penned by Steve.

Dragonball: Evolution (DVD)

Everything moves from destination to destination—picking up hitchhikers at each stop along the way—at such a relentless pace, the funny names and completely ridiculous events all start to blend together. The final act is just a mishmash of CG and action that is so unintelligible even those who did manage to latch onto the first 45 minutes of this “road” picture will be thrown completely for a loop.

Kids, you deserve better, especially if you’re a Dragonball devotee.  There might be a small contingent of the target demographic who won’t want to scoop out their eyeballs with a ladle after watching.
