"I'm not a freak, I'm a Devil"

Somewhat good and interesting storyline, brutal punches and an insane villain. This movie is DBZ at his best.

Might lack some depth, but when watching this, it's the entertainment value that matters. Good movie!

i watched the movie and still didnt understand why he hates goku so much. becuz he was crying alot when they were born?? lol
but other than that it was kinda epic, a real killer here. i was hoping gohan would have fought a bit more. and its weird seeing vegeta being all realistic all of a sudden with "he's too strong"
ending was kinda stupid, what were they thinking
"o shit we only have 2 minutes worth of animation left, how do we kill him?"
"lets make it like pokemon and goku will do a critical hit, super effective attack!"

One of the best DBZ films that I have seen so far, I maybe only prefer Super Android 13. This film was fun to watch (except for Roshi, he was pretty awful in this film) and Broly makes for a good villain, although the way he lost was weird.

And Vegeta looked really bad in this film, the writers didn't like him, methinks.

My favorite DBZ movie too. At least this one has a good story and a motivation for the evilness of Broly and his father.
Also, Broly is iconic to Dragon Ball universe.
Watching it with japanese audio, I really love the musics of the final fight.

I lied when I said that movie 7 was the best movie so far, this is. I guess it goes to show what you can do with an extra half an hour of screen time (most DBZ movies so far have been 45-50mins, this was an hour and 15mins). Broly is such an iconic DBZ villain.

Quoting what I posted last movie.

I'm so glad the french dub always had the original japanese soundtrack, the musics are so goooood. Especially compared to the rock ost of the american dub o_o

Also we kept most of the iconic japanese shouts and screams during transformations ♥

Anyway, Broly was and is still my fav villain. I remember collecting DBZ Bandai Power Level CARDASS cards as a 7-10 years old kid and not understanding who this character was, and not understanding either why I never saw him in the anime lol.

I was so glad when I got the VHS of this movie for my Christmas later ♥

Also italian dub has japanese OST. I never liked those english themes, to me it's not the same Dragon Ball Z without its original japanese music.

Broly is an iconic character even if he does not exist in the manga.

Hell yeah, Broly is the only one to have 3 movies for himself! Even though we barely saw him in BioBroly movie (and it was a clone) before he transformed in that giant pile of mud lol.

It seems most of Europe got the original japanese soundtrack ... Well, it was at a time where France companies spent quite some cash to actively import or co-produce anime so yeah.

Now though most anime pass through USA first and get ridiculous censorship / editing (Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh! come to mind) =/

I remember having to import the japanese soundtrack from the JP ISO of Budokai Tenkaichi 3 (Sparking Meteor) and then burn the EU ISO to play on my PS2... But it was WELL WORTH IT ahah. Played Broly for dozens of hours and pwnd my friends :p (Sadly he was not as overpowered as in Tenkaichi 2 though )

That was quite the movie, better than the others by far imo. Loved how Vegeta was just scared shitless when he realized who Broly was when he transformed. So much for being a Saiyan, eh? Saiyans seem to pride on a fierce battle yet Vegeta just was terrified, quaking in his boots at the sign of the battle this time around.

The legend must've of really stuck in hm a as a kid growing up or something... lol.

Also thought it was pretty funny how they all fell off the cliff at that one part and Krillin just gets up and sits up ontop like "Sup Bros?".

Broly is such a savage, usually the antagonists have some kind of goal, but he just wants destruction and fight (like most Saiyans) . Which is why he reacted that way to Goku who also only wants to fight.

Ending was a bit weak though, but that seems to be par for the course for DBZ movies.

yeahhh this one is so-so for me. I liked the concept of "legendary super seiyan". and the music for this movie was awesome! but everything else...
1.The dumb comic relief scenes w/ drunk aster Roshi seemed janky and outta place, as in soemthing serious and epic would happen then all of a sudden cuts to loook how drunk roshi is.
2. I know Broly's motivation, and like everyone else I thought it was dumb
3.the whole backstory was bit iffy

This was a fun re-watch. There is some sloppy writing here and there though. &++ the way the writers portrayed Vegeta in this is so dumb. They made him bitch made!

But on the bright side, the movie did give this iconic moment.



And mayne, I love the climax. "Vegeta... what are you waiting for? You're our last hope. Give me your POWERRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!" That Haji's Kitchen song "Lost" is so damn good and complements the whole fighting scene. Broly was punching Goku through an effin' mountain!

Hating Goku ? Well you didn't see the movie, Piccolo saving Gohan is a classic and Vegeta has always seen the legend of the super saiyan as something incredible and see him like that invincble, i'd be scared too, it's like when he was scared of Frieza.

Never loved this movie as much as others did, but it was pretty cool and more effort was put into the story, which is not saying much XD

Also extra point for Broly being such a beast.

Imagine this not being dragon ball and you not being a fan of the franchise & characters. What would be left of this movie? Pretty much nothing imo. All we get here is a bunch of fights between our beloved heroes and a new, one dimensional villian that is pretty much a big punching bag with pretty much no motivation apart from being ANGERY and to become the MOST POWERFUL EVER and to DESTROY THE UNIVERSE.

The 'plot' is pretty much an excuse for our Z-warriors to battle him half the movie. Apart from Goku and Vegeta the characters serve pretty much no purpose. Then theres the unnecesarry addition of Roshi and Puar acting super dumb (and out of character) for the sake of comic relief.

The ending is extremely excpected and something we've seen multiple times in the main series.

I think a 13 year old me would love this for the cool fighting animations and being a fankid. This movie for me is nothing less of a service to the fans of the franchise. If this wasn't dragonball Z it would get nowhere the praise it gets...

This was a very intense movie. I liked how Broly was seemingly so indestructible that no one was able to land a significant blow as he continued to rein pure devastation on the Z Fighters. Especially Goku, whose durability got tested to the extreme, more so than the others. And, near the end, another trait also was put under a trial as Vegeta's pride gave him plenty of reasons not to share his power to Goku, who he perceives as someone less worthy than him, a clown. A powerful one at that, but a clown nonetheless. It was a highlight-worthy moment when Vegeta decided to throw caution to the wind and lent his powers to Goku. Considering how terrified Vegeta was of Broly throughout most of the action, he redeemed himself in his way.

While it may seem ridiculous to many, Broly's anger against Goku does accentuate Broly's insanity. Broly acted like how many creatures perceive Saiyans as; bloodthirsty, ruthless, and savage. He truly was the ultimate challenger despite his shortcomings as a character. The struggle was real against him.

This movie might be the best one, as of yet. I enjoyed it very much so. And I have to say that the music was certainly a blessing to the ears. I do have to say that this film seemed aimed towards the fanbase of the series rather being more of a standalone movie. With its very much one linear setting, I doubt many newbies would enjoy this one as much as I did.

I like Broly as the insane mountain of muscles that he is, but he has plot armour for the majority of the movie, then gets defeated by (quite literally) the power of friendship, after Vegeta stops being tsundere? Yeah I'm actually almost glad that this version of Broly isn't canon after all.

Man, the last time I watched this movie, Broly was still a non-canon/filler character. And here I am rewatching it knowing that he's a canon character now; the movie where Broly The Legendary Super Saiyan made his debut. Of course, all the events that took place in this movie are still not canon, like every DBZ movie before Battle of Gods.

I checked your profile and I'm just quoting you to say that I'm glad that I'm not the only one who's meticulous with their list. Most people who skipped fillers would still mark that show complete and all ep. watched. It's like their cheating with their ep. count.

I used to do the the same thing as you, mark those shows as dropped instead, but I thought it was harsh for a show I really like. I prefer to place them on hold forever instead. I couldn't comment or send a message, so I did this instead. lol

Anyway,

The new Broly movie has better story and animation, but man, I still prefer the original Broly by a good margin. The fact that he trash talks and is just pure evil is a bonus!

They stretched out this movie too much! It would've been better if this was about 45+ mins long. 7/10

That's what you don't get. In fact, very few people who found him so cool or advocated for his crappy ass rewrite in the Super movie really understood the true essence of the OG character. I'd say, he's one of the most grossly misrepresented of the franchise with Yamcha or Gohan. They all became a meme, their perception being reshaped into a twisted out image of what they conceptually are.

Paragus is the one who gives him depth. They are characters heavily depending on one another. Paragus is a flat character without his son and the contrary is also right. Broly just cannot control his overflowing ki, it's Paragus who took the initiative to properly channel it through a restraining device. He has all the leisure to think of solutions and plot, because he doesn't have a cursed potential within to try to contain. Their two paths ultimately leads to him releasing Broly, and years of pent up frustration gave into the monstrous form. Broly isn't just a dumb brute. In fact, his final talk with Paragus shows that he is smart in a sadistic kind of way. He just chose to go with the flow and enjoy the ride, because he cannot do anything to quiet the overflowing ki issue. Indeed, that's also something DBZ fans has grossly misrepresented over time: Broly doesn't get increasingly stronger over time, his ki is instead building up endlessly. It is forcing him to act and release it in whatever opportunity he can, it being pure destruction more often than not. How is Broly supposed to have any agency? He is an outcast without roots or anyone able to bond with, he's a beast with a cursed destiny.
His father tried to do something about it, but he fell prey to greed and revengeful spirit. Broly is corruption of the body, while his father is corruption of the soul. They are tragic characters, and one is supposed to provide a contrast to the other. The biggest mistake was to make more movies with only Broly. The scheme thwarted , the device broken and Paragus dead, there is just zero direction you can take the big villain except: "must kill Kakarot huuuurrrr!". Note that in the shit sequel movies, Broly is in full control of his potential. He isn't prisoner of his endless stamina issue as he doesn't do thing like unleashing randomly energy balls to even out his ki... His character thus degenerated into the cliché you have learned to embrace as word of truth.

If anything, I find the inconsistent writing of Vegeta in this movie more shocking. He is more stupid and self contradictory than usual.

Here is my final opinion. The best of DBZ movie along with the Tapion one. It takes an unusual trajectory. Indeed, main villains are usually proactive conquerors or destroyers. Here you have a vaguely ominous plotter. And his plot isn't directed at Goku, to change! Sure, the culprit of mass destruction is obvious, but that's besides the point. An elaborate whodunit scenario wouldn't work out with the DBZ formula. Instead, you look at how the investigating characters unravel the scheme, which builds up the climax to the final fight. Like I said, Paragus and Broly are tragic characters. So much in fact, most of the audience doesn't fully understand what they are about! Their musical segments on Kikuchi's soundtrack are paroxysmal and full of hopeless dread. It is such a fun movie thanks to the kinetic fight storytelling, I think that's why the fans lost of sight of the two villains characterization.
The four major flaws in this movie are how Vegeta is portrayed, the coming of Picollo crowbar'd in for the multiple saves, the tonal whiplash with the comic reliefs who derail the amazing doomsday atmosphere and the final asspull win. 7 out of 10, as a DBZ movie.

This movie still holds up. A real masterpiece improving everything other Dragon Ball movies build up but didn't manage to execute to the best of their abilities. But I feel the strength of this movie is also its downfall since it spawned some underwhelming sequels.

Well... I really didn't like that. It looked beautiful and started with an interesting story, but everything devolved into a slasher film Pantera anime AMV. Probably would be better with the original soundtrack, but I still don't like the plot or Broly's motivation. Also, what the heck were they doing with that writing for Vegeta? Finally, several things just flow really strangely and feel like plotholes: Broly and his dad surviving their execution to be thrown into a pit to later escape (weren't they supposed to be executed?), Broly just appearing before his father as he was about to escape despite the fact that Broly is in the middle of a fight, Vegeta's sudden change of heart, and the weird scene with the ship bouncing at the end (huh?). The final attack with the other heroes giving their energy to Goku is even super weird (though not necessarily that weird for a DBZ movie).
