I'm a 23 year old who spent many a middle school afternoon plopped in front of toonami for a half hour at a time going oogly googly at their couple of anime shows, most notably for me of course being dragonball/dragonball z.
I have not seen the movie yet but plan on it very soon. I have been doing some online reading of reviews and watching trailers to make sure that the movie is worth seeing, because in the past it has been worthwhile to pass up movies that just didn't make the cut no matter how cool they originally seemed from the title or original conception(Catwoman anyone?? Glad I passed that one up.)
I get all my useful information on whether or not to see a movie from quoting the bad reviews. Here's a few I found enlightening:
"Except for the presence of Hong Kong star Chow Yun-Fat, this shoddy live-action film is no different or bigger than the sort of junk kids plop down to watch on TV after school."
I spent many afternoons when I was 11 plopped down in front of a TV thoroughly enjoying dragonball. AND this one has chow yun fat! So far, movie is looking good.
Another good quote from a negative review:
"Making no effort to be original, exciting, witty or even vaguely plausible, it may pass the time as sparkly fodder for 12-year-old boys with plenty of sugar in their bloodstream."
More milk duds plz. I spend most of my time being a 12 year old at heart
