Movie
01 - The Deadzone
Description:
The
Deadzone introduces Garlic Junior who seeks immortality to revenge his
father by killing Kami Sama. As of all the early movies, his plot was
challenged by Goku and Piccolo. One can expect the animation to be
brilliant.
Unfortunately,
its letdown was that the music became rather repetitive and Garlic
Junior's
voice was fairly lame. Although humorous at times, the storyline was
somewhat childish compared to the other movies.

02 - The World's Strongest
Description:
Dr.
Wheelo has returned after being frozen in his own lab. With the plan of
becoming the strongest man on Earth, he attempts to take over Kamesenin's
body, not knowing that Goku has now replaced Kamesenin as the strongest
man on Earth. The movie had a simple, boring plot. Some would consider
this to be a "rushed
production".

03 - Earth's Ultimate Deciding Battle
Description:
After Taurus had been introduced into the movie, we learn of his plot to
sap the Earth's
energy through the Shinseiju (the Tree of Might). This is yet another
plain, boring movie where Goku and the Z warriors attempt to interfere
with his plans. The graphics are not particularly stunning nor are there
any great sound effects.

04 - Super Namekian Slug
Description:
Slug comes to Earth in search of the Dragon Balls which could grant him
his youth back. His wish was fulfilled and he tries to take over Earth.
Once again, Goku attempts to stop him only to find Slug's
true form to be more powerful than any villain.
Sorry
for the people who like this movie, it is absolute crap. I have never
watched anything in an anime as horrible as this. Apart from a
half-hearted storyline, the battle scenes were amazingly dull and
unattractive. To me, this movie seems like a half-minute production.

05 - Battle of the Strongest VS the Strongest
Description:
Koola
arrives on Earth in hopes of avenging Frieza's
death. Once again, the Z warriors face off Koola and force him into his
final transformation. Surprisingly, the story focuses on every character
rather than Goku and the villain. The battle scenes are fairly nice and
the graphics itself are stunning as usual. For once, the story has a bit
of life in it; ups and downs all the time.

06 - Attack 1,000,000 Power Warriors
Description:
In
the beginning, we learn that New Planet Namek has been attacked by a machinery
object and the planet's
life-force was being absorbed. After knowing what has happened, the Z
warriors arrive on the planet only to find that Koola had fused with the
machinery object and was controlling it with his surviving organ, the
brain.
This
movie is spectacular in both graphics and sound quality. The scene where
thousands of Metal Koolas marched against Goku and Vegeta was
amazing. The battle between Koola's
brain, Goku & Vegeta was one of my most memorable scenes in all of
the Dragon Ball Z movies experience I had.

07 - The 3 Super Saiyans
Description:
This
movie revolves around Dr. Gero's
computer creation of three androids who were all programmed to kill
Goku. The graphics in this movie were stunning and the explosions were magnificent.
When Android #13 powers up, his fight with our Z warriors was amazing
and really broke loose the urge of excitement in most people.

08 - Bring your Spirit to the Max
Description:
Paragas
comes to Earth and invites Vegeta to act as king of the New Planet
Vegeta. Paragas masked his true plan of universal domination while
occupying our prince Saiyan and the other Z warriors.
This
is a fairly nice movie, but since it is such a one sided fight I didn't
get much out of the battle scenes. Disappointingly, Brolly was finished
off with a single punch. It was still nice to learn about the Legendary
Super Saiyan though.

09 - The Galaxy's in Danger! Super Awesome Guy!
Description:
This
story involves all the Z warriors, including the strongest and the
weakest (even Mr. Satan). In a tournament, the final contestants were
made to fight against trained warriors in order to prove their worthiness
for challenging Mr. Satan. It turns out that the trained warriors were
knocked unconscious and unknowingly replaced by the Northern Galaxy's
most dreadful villains, Bojack and his minions.
Apart
from a stupid name, this is a great Dragon Ball Z movie. It had
excellent animation and music. Unfortunately, the storyline was not
fully developed and the movie was too short. Overall this is a great
movie and a must have for any DBZ Otaku.

10 - Dangerous Partners, Warriors Never Resist
Description:
While
Trunks, Goten, and Videl were searching for the Dragon Balls, they run
into Brolly who has come to Earth looking for Goku. The three find their
match in Brolly and things look bad until Gohan comes along. Things are
once again looking bad, but the Z warriors get a little from a miracle
sent by Shenlong.
This
is a great movie! It is! It has a lot of comedy, great fighting scenes,
stunning music and great emotion. This is my favorite of the Brolly
Trilogy.

11 - Super Warrior Clone, I am the Winner!
Description:
Someone
had used Brolly's
blood sample to create a clone of him. The clone breaks free and starts
causing havoc. A chemical, which was supposed to melt him, was poured
over him. Instead, the chemical changes him into some sort of a deformed
creature that is literally indestructible.
The
fights in this movie are not all that bad, but it is other things that
bring it down. Three movies with Brolly is a little too much and even
worse is when you see what Brolly looks like in this movie. Another
letdown was the way in which Brolly was beaten. Trust me, you will never
see this one coming. Not even your usual comic relief from Trunks,
Goten, and Satan can save this movie.

12 - The Rebirth of Fusion: Goku and Vegeta
Description:
In the afterlife world, Janeba is causing havoc in Enma Kaio's
Palace. Goku and Vegeta were forced to team up, and eventually perform
fusion to become Gogita, when Janeba changes from a fat, playful
marshmallow creature into a fearsome red
warrior
that looks somewhat like Koola, yet a lot more cooler.
This
is easily the best of all the Dragon Ball Z movies. It is a definite
must see as long as you have the slightest interest in the Dragon Ball Z
series. This movie uses computer graphics, so the animation is
absolutely amazing. Throw in with the ever so powerful Janeba and the
ass-kicking Gogita, you have got yourself one of the best anime movies.

13 - Explosive Dragon Fist!
Description:
A
mysterious old man appears with a magical box and he needs someone to
open it. Faking suicide to get Gohan and Videl's
attention, they collect the Dragon Balls and wish for the box to open.
Tapion, the creature that emerges from the box, isn't
too happy about his release for he has a deep secret within him.
Wow,
this movie, in a word, rocks. Because of the fact that this was the last
Dragon Ball Z movie, animation has improved a lot. This, along with
movie 12, would be one of the best anime movies in history. The villain
is amazing, and that is even more amazing than Janeba or any of those
creeps from Tenchi.
