Dragon Ball Z - Bojack Unbound (Uncut) [DVD]

I would call the king piccolo saga the best of them. the main reason i would say this is because of the story it sets. It is a saga with lots of action yes, but the plot is amazing. the story is essentially a story of revenge. goku must avenge the death of his best friend krillin. you really feel for goku's goal. we also get to meet one of the best characters of the series, Yajirobe and this set in particuilar ends with the death of the great master roshi. By the end you really feel the threat of King piccolo and that goku is the final hope for the world. the series has gone into high gear!

I loved how this is the original anime from 1990s the exact Version I grew up watching . Good quality too and sound

with these DVD's being so cheap when they are used I just couldn't help but to buy it. It is an excellent movie and unlike most movies, this one actually can fit into the DBZ timeline. This movie has some excellent fights and I will definitely buy some more of these movies.

I love the movie because always wanted it

Awesome cartoon, and in english.

wow its weird seeing piccolo a bad guy and he is almost more ruthless than vegeta defenitly worth having for the collection not to mention this item wont last forever

Awesome movie

As a general rule, martial arts films are fairly stupid. Animated martial arts films are, as a general rule, terminally stupid. I will be the first to admit that the Dragonball Z material, which is extensive, isn't the most absolutely stupid, although at times it comes perilously close.Those who are unfamiliar with this subset of the genre, the Dragonball series concerns the dynasty of muscle-bound martial arts superheroes founded by an alien (Seiyan), Goku. He was sent to Earth to destroy it as an infant, but forgot all about it an became the closest thing to Li'l Abner seen in modern anime (he's hugely strong, mild of manner, and innocent to the point of impraticality.You would think the series would actually be about "Dragonballs". Well, it sort of is, occasionally. These little orange balls with stars on them, if collected together, allow the possessor to call up a gigantic magic dragon that will grant a wish. At times where's a lot of plot business connected with rivalry in getting the balls. However, at other times the dragonballs completely disappear. This is one of those times.Instead we get lots of martial arts and of course the other thing associated with Dragonball Z, overabundant and overdone "comic relief" -- which is too self-consciously "comic" and from which there is little relief. A lot of this is provided here by a stock Dragonball character, Hercule. The reader is referred to an other "Hercule", Clouseau's assistant in the early Pink Panther films (and clearly a parody of a third Hercule, namely Poirot). The Panther Hercule is only marginally brighter than Clouseau ... the Dragonball Hercule is more than marginally less bright. Despite the clearly greater martial powers of the Goku dynasty and other fighters, he always manages to retain the title of World Martial Arts Champion through some fluke. For a while, Hercule has no idea he's benefitted from other than his own skills, but by the time of the "Bojack" film, he's well aware of his position at the bottom of the totem pole.You won't see much it here, but Dragonball comedy tends to use laughable names for its characters, particularly villains -- such as the perennial Garlic Jr.As is usual with Dragonball, there is a martial arts contest and it turns into a serious threat to the continued existence of Earth. The threat is then dealt with (with lots of cliffhangers) by a member of the Goku dynasty. (By the way, nobody ever explains how the continued mating of the Goku dynasty members with Earth people fails to produce weaker and weaker offspring. If anything, this genetic dilution seems to produce stronger results. On the other hand, expecting things in this series to make any real sense in the real universe is very, very foolish.The "Bojack" film is fairly harmless and will no doubt fascinate kiddies whose educational prospects are limited. Nevertheless, I urge you not to buy this turkey. The reason is simple: it is preceded by 2 blatant and obnoxious commercials that can't be bypassed. If you want to watch the film, you have to watch the commercials.Shades, we hope, NOT of things to come.

Bon

Classique DBZ. Pas assez fort au début, puis on se développe et on gagne. Pour le fans seulement.

Any Dragonball Z fan needs to watch the series that started it all off. Dragonball in general is usually a lot more light hearted than Z, using more humour (dirty humour that is :-D), and is more of an adventure series. But this is where we start to see aspects of Z shine through. In this half of the King Piccolo saga, we find out that the one-time-wannabe-ruler-of-the-world has returned, and wants to carry on where he left off. Goku goes off seeking revenge for the death of his best friend Krillin, leaving Roshi, Tien and Chioutzu to find the Dragonballs before Piccolo's henchmen can.The first episode is great, giving us a history lesson of Piccolo's last near success at domination. Here we get to see Roshi and Crane in their prime, when they were pupils of Mutaito's Martial Arts school (and while they were still friends). Tien turns full circle and atones for his violent past, while Goku meets up with a new friend (a more hardcore Yajirobe, before he became a wimp). The DVD then culminates with a confrontation between King Piccolo and the great Turtle Hermit himself.This is a great DVD, and the episodes contain quite a bit of character development. Piccolo being my favourite character from DBZ, its great to see for myself where he came from, and eventually what will lead to their first proper fight (part 2 of this saga).I only gave it 4 stars just for the fact that its like a transition between DB and DBZ. Its leaving the fun-loving aspects of the earlier DB episodes (which I love), but its not quite reached the level of Z. The final fight (in part 2) between Goku and King Piccolo really is something, its just not quite as intense as what you'd find in Z. But please dont let this disuade you from it, even though any DB/Z fan wouldnt, because I really do rate this DVD highly.

This DBZ movie is set after the end of the Cell Saga in the DBZ series. I like this movie as i had never previously seen it before only heard about it through other people. DBZ bojack unbound is region 1 but will play on region 2 dvd players or mutli region dvd players. i experienced no problems with this dvd and view it as one of my favourate DBZ movies.
