3rd Movie: Dragonball Evolution

Baru balik dari tgk cite ni di my fav cinema: Cathay Cineplexes.

Preview: Eventho Stephen Chow jd producer cite ni... I've doubt whether the director akan stick to the original manga* written and drawn by Akira Toriyama. If Stephen Chow yg direct cite ni.. kompem best. So gue expecting the worst from this movie.

Sedikit info on the manga: Mengisahkan Goku yg mewarisi mutiara naga dari atuknye, Go-Han and di temui oleh Bulma yg sedang dlm operasi menjejak mutiara naga. Dlm manga ni, Bulma yg cite kat Goku mutiara naga ada 7. Sblm Go-Han mati, dia meminta Goku bertemu Datuk Kura-Kura (Cikgu Muten @ Datuk Kame) utk belajar ilmu persilatan disamping menolong Bulma mencari balance mutiara naga yang lagi enam.

Maka bermulalah pengembaraan mencari 7 mutiara naga daripada jatuh ke pihak jahat. Dari budak berumur 6 tahun ... smpailah dah ade cucu. Goku dan rakan rakan telah menyelamatkan bumi dan antara org jahat yg ditemui pon ble jadi kawan ngan Goku. Lepas Goku menang lwn diorglah of coz. Dari Yamu, Ten Shin Han, Raja Pikor, Bezita sampailah Majin Buu... Semuanya dari musuh ketat ble jadi kwn baik. Except for Fliza and Cell (Dari Tentera Red Ribbon) of coz - musuh ketat kaum Saiya. Bila 7 mutiara naga berjaya dikumpul... Naga akan keluar utk menjadikan 1 impian jadi nyata. Setelah menunaikan impian itu... ketujuh2 mutiara naga akan terpisah dan menjadi batu selama setahun seblm kembali menjadi mutiara naga yg boleh menunaikan hasrat.

Pretty detail huh... mmg ar! gue kumpul komiknya dari #1 ~ #43 yg mane akhirnya Goku mati. So gue mmg tunggu je bile Dragonball jadi movie.

So the review:

• Background cite tlh diubah. Goku kena pegi skolah (mcm kat USA) and cite ni dah jadi mcm another teen flick where a boy desperate to win a girl heart..bla..bla..bla. Boring plot!


• The only character yg same mcm original version are only Bulma and Piccolo (Raja Pikor). The rest of the character has been change to suits American surrounding.


• The storyline: Ok with a lot of changes from the manga. Started with Go-Han still alive and teach Goku the martial art before being kill by Piccolo yg sedang mencari all 7 Dragonball to destroy the world. Goku met Bulma (while on the same time fall in love with Chi-Chi) then find Master Roshi (Datuk Kame) who teach him Kame Hame Ha and on the way met Yamcha (Yamu) and when the time come for the good vs evil, Goku find out yg die sebenarnye adalah Ouzura (ha? Sape ni?... x penah dgr pon dlm manga) iaitu pengikut Piccolo yg akan bersame memusnahkan dunia...wa..haha.. (ketawa seorg penjahat) ... sorry.. terover plak. Back to the storyline... Then berjaya kawal diri and tewaskan Piccolo dgn Super Kame Hame Ha utk avenge kematian Roshi-After that gunakan all 7 dragonball-summon the dragon-wish for Roshi to back to life-Roshi hidup semula-finito.


• For those yg tunggu until half of the credit line kluar (or selagi lampu x bukak) korg akan tgk yg Piccolo sebenarnye blm mati.

Gue x puas ati tgk movi ni! a bad adaptation from the manga! Jln cerita yg mcm berebut-rebut nak siapkan crite ni as if mcm x der feel jer utk buat movie ni not like Michael Bay yg eventho x minat Transformers dr kecik but provide us a great adaptation from the cartoon version. Semua watak or CGI amatlah biasa jer...harap bising jer lebih...sedih ar. Nasib baik ar Chi chi tuh..em.. how to describe her eh? Hot! (thats the word) kalau x.. buat rugi duit gue jer tgk kat wayang. Baik bli dvd jer...

Overall gue bagi 1.5 star from 5.
