The movie is called Dragon Ball Super Broly, and the plot is no longer original but follows the ending of Dragon Ball Super TV. Later, during the battle, there is no explanation for the difference between the different hair colors of the protagonists and why they have to change different hair colors to fight. , so to understand 100% of this theatrical version, you must have a certain understanding of Dragon Ball Super. In other words, this movie serves Dragon Ball fans rather than general audiences. It is best to understand this before watching it.
The overall rhythm of the Dragon Ball Super Broly theatrical version this time is a bit fast, and the background and characterization of many new characters are omitted. The plot also seems dispensable after the flashback part ends and returns to reality. And the meaning of hitting, but the film is really too good in production. The 40-minute fight in the second half is completely different. The handling and performance of the battle scenes are very layered, and the sense of picture and the design of the storyboards are too powerful. Compared with the best episodes of the Dragon Ball Super TV version, they are not at all. On a level, the performance of the sound effect in the theater is also very shocking. Dragon Ball Super Broly can definitely be called the best audio-visual experience in the theater in recent years, much stronger than many Hollywood blockbusters.
Although Dragon Ball has developed to the present, especially after Dragon Ball Super, the plot has become less and less important, but this Broly theatrical version is still very bad in terms of plot. The flashback part of the first 20 minutes of the film is like a running account, and the origin of the Dragon Ball story and the background setting of Broly are hurriedly passed. Although there are some moving plots, it still looks perfunctory overall. As for the part after the flashback ends and returns to reality, the plot can be described by making up numbers. It is entirely for arranging a fight after a group of people gathers, and it even lacks a certain logic. This part of the plot is basically just a simple introduction to the basic character and character of the adult Broly, and there is a lack of sufficient depiction of the other two new little followers and Broly's father, resulting in the subsequent development and reversal of the plot. It seems too quick and deliberate. After experiencing the baptism of the Dragon Ball Super TV version, I have lowered my expectations for the plot of the theatrical version, but the plot of this movie is still difficult to compliment.
After Dragon Ball entered the Super Saiyan era, it didn't pay much attention to one move and one move. It was more about the collision of the body and skills at high speed, as well as the destructive performance of destroying the sky and destroying the earth, so whether it is fighting or the overall look and feel. It will be more or less monotonous, but the 40-minute fight in this Broly theatrical version is really not the same at all. The 1-on-1 battle between Broly and the two protagonists is from normal to super red, but the difference is that the opening starts with Vegeta as the main point of view and gradually draws out Broly's strength. Most of the time this part is Vegeta. Get the upper hand. When it was replaced by Goku and Broly, the main point of view became Broly, and the monster who had stimulated his full potential was used to beat the protagonist. When the two faced off, Broly's first point of view was still unfolded. The use of perspective is very novel, and it is very enjoyable to watch. In the back, the battles between Super Blue Goku and Fusion Gogeta and Broly are more intense each time, and the form and picture performance are also richer.
It can be said that the battle performance of this theatrical version is completely different from the previous Dragon Ball. The design of the battle is very layered, and the pictures and storyboards are even more powerful. Many of the shots are clearly designed for the big screen, and that kind of experience can only be enjoyed 100% in theaters. It is worth mentioning that the sound effects of the theatrical version are more shocking than the pictures. Needless to say, the violent collision of the flesh, the characters' explosions and the sound effects of magnifying the move can even make people shake from the seat, like an instant. The sound of moving this skill is much crisper than the TV version.
The movie also has two other changes that improve the look and feel compared to TV. The first is that the jokes are more natural, unlike Dragon Ball Super TV, which sometimes seems very young and awkward. The jokes have the meaning of returning to the old era of Dragon Ball, which is nonsensical but in line with the setting of the Dragon Ball world. The second is that the battle scenes are very coherent, unlike TV that interspersed too many dialogues and narrational lines between the characters on both sides of the battle. This battle scene is not only very exciting, but the rhythm is also well controlled.
The production is divided according to the degree. Broly theatrical version gives 10, and the best episodes in TV may not reach 3, which is not an order of magnitude at all. In recent years, the most impressive audio-visual experience of my movie watching works are animation, one is the Spider-Man parallel universe, and the other is this Dragon Ball Super Broly. Although the film has many problems in terms of plot, narrative pacing and characters, its top production level can fully make up for these problems.
