The animation was fantastic for about 95% of the movie and the fight scenes are some of the best I've seen from the DB series in a long time. I loved that they kept the focus on Piccolo and Gohan for the most part throughout the entire thing. While the story itself wasn't that great, I loved that they went out of their way to answer a ton of smaller questions fans of the series had about DB Super. These were very minor and inconsequential things, but it's amazing how many things they went out of their way to answer. I can definitely recommend this to any Dragon Ball fans out there. I just hope that alot of the progress isn't just forgotten whenever the next show/movie is released, as has happened in the past. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. For those who said this movie looked bad, it honestly does not; Plus Gohan, Piccolo, and Pan were completely redeemed from their previous portrayal. Also, the Gammas were the showstoppers, and Cell Max even though was imperfect, was nice as a mindless villan since there's no connection to the previous one. Therefore, it's only a complete different one. Expand

This is a very American film, although this is a movie made in Japan. Only thing I see Japan was " to drive on the left". It seems that Mr. Akira Toriyam really likes American superhero movies. No wonder American love Drangon Ball!

Also, the animation looks ugly during that part, unlike the rest of the film, where the mix between 2D and 3D wasn't as bad as expected.

But these Dragon Ball films keep being tiring. The exposition-heavy segments are boring, and their insistence on bringing villains from the past is annoying. It's time for the franchise to move on.

Nevertheless, there are some cool segments in there. Almost all the fights are awesome, and it was great to see super-powered Gohan again.

One of the best things about this“Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero” was a fun watch. Just to get one thing out of the way: The CG animation isn’t that bad. Quite the contrary, it made for a lot of cool shots and dynamic camera angles. One of the best things about this movie, is the fact that they focus on other characters besides the two main hitters. It’s so refreshing to NOT see Goku and Vegeta front and center for a change, and have the rest of the gang take care of business!

All that said, one problem I had with the movie was that it didn’t do much to pump me up the way the other movies did. This is BY FAR the weakest movie in the “Dragon Ball Super” series, feeling like a silly filler arc most of the time with very weak steaks that don’t really sell you on it’s premise. Also, the "Big Bad" is a mere shell of one of the best villain's in the whole series. As a non-canon movie, this movie isn’t necessarily required viewing, but if you’re a big “Dragon Ball” fan, this is a solid matinee movie.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Take a pen and paper and write any fan fiction about dragon ball, and you’ll have a better movie then Super Hero. In fact I’m going to right now, I’m the theater right now watching the movie. No prep. No idea.


Gohan gets captured in a matrix type sensory pod, under the ruse that he thinks Vegeta and goku, and piccolo have died— pushing him to unlock his saiyan power to beyond instinct. This power level comes at the cost of a mentally exhausting trial of depression and hopelessness lived in the apocalyptic matrix. This virtual power surge unlocks Gohan’s strength, and breaks the matrix illusion. However, he is stunned and broken by being deceived, and unsure if the world he’s waken up in is real or imaginary. Unfortunately, the enemy who tricked him, was none other then vegeta himself. In a life of endless training and sacrifice, vegeta never wa able to get ahead and, under red ribbon’s resources, rationalizes using Gohan to get stronger. Vegeta with his new power, defeats enemies with ease, but leaves reckless destruction on earth. This triggers Gohan to get up and fight as he knows living in a world like the one he saw in the pod is, an unfair fate to the innocents of earth.

The movie Lina’s battle is a full strength gonna vs a power drunk Gohan. Gohan wins.


Thank you Super Hero for motivating me to write and make something that isn’t complete derivative abuse of dragon ball lore.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The only think it has going for it is the animation and seeing well known characters. Although the most popular characters only make a short appearance, because they're too busy training in Beerus world.

The movie is full of inconsistencies, like Pan learning to fly with Piccolo when she could already do it as a baby. Or Vegeta training through meditation like Goku is very well known for, but you see Goku say that is not even a training method.

The movie has the typical lines that make Gohan fans giggle, like Piccolo saying that Gohan is the Saiyan with the most potential of them all. When following Toriyama explanation for Gohan potential, then Trunks, Goten, Pan and Bulla all have more potential than him.

Does Gohan even trains to gain the new transformation?! No. Like always he's been too busy not training and he just transforms because of Piccolo, because he only needs to get angrier. So the transformation, like the ultimate form it's an unearned form. Much like Piccolo gets two power boots because Dende upgrades the dragon so he can give those boosts in power.

Even Cell Max is a complete disappointment, because at no time do you feel that he's a threat. Not when he completely out of control purposely fires Ki beams at the Earth, all hit the Earth and nothing happens. Zero damage to the planet. One of the beams falls right next to Bulma and she's fine without even a scratch. You can even say that feats wise Cell Max is weaker than Cell.

The story is juvenile to say the least, and the fights aren't even impressive at all.

This movie only has one reason of being. To give a cookie to Gohan fans and tell them Gohan is as powerful as Goku and Vegeta, even though the movie gives zero proof of that. The only thing it gives you is Piccolo and Gohan personal opinions, about how they think Gohan is now as powerful as Goku and Vegeta.

And that in the end is no proof at all.

At least Freeza when he defeats Gas and then defeats Goku and Vegeta in their Ultra forms, he actually does it. No one says he could possibly do it or that they think he could do it, you see Freeza do it in his Black Freeza form. And at least Frieza had to train for ten years to get the new form.

The Manga did more for Freeza in one chapter than this entire movie does for Gohan.

And that only shoes why this movie should've never been done. Compared to for example the Battle of Gods but especially the Broly movie, Super Hero isn't even worth the time watching it.

It's just a fun project and I love seeing Gohan getting some love.

The animation style is definitely peculiar but I love how the studio tried new things with it: there's a lot of camera work going on that would never be possible on 2D. I cannot say it's my favorite, but I enjoyed it none the less.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The intro is a lot of filler from Dragon Ball and DBZ regarding Dr. Gero, the Androids, Cell, and so on. So the first 3 to 5 minutes can be really dull if you know your dragon ball lore/events.

A really slow start to the movie with a few good scenes between Piccolo and Pan (Pan is just wholesome throughout this entire movie). Some filler stuff with Goku and Vegeta training together that didn't need to be in this movie, since we are mainly focusing on Piccolo, Gohan, and the Red Ribbon army.

Piccolo's screen time with his first transformation ever was a little short to my liking, since it's the first time he ever changes looks and I think they should've put more focus on him evolving rather than skipping through it (But that's definitely more of a problem with another character).
Orange Piccolo is kind of a weird/unoriginal name, but fits the character that he doesn't want to be much of a show of and just focuses on the fighting aspect.

As always in Shonen movies, the fight scenes are the best part with the environmental destruction and the color of the energy blasts is really nice to look at.

We kind of have a Wolverine: Origins moment where they literally take one of (if not the most) charismatic characters in Dragon Ball history and make him not speak. Cell Max just has a monkey brain through this entire movie and just yells and screams like he's just come from the insane asylum. Cell is definitely the most disappointing part of this movie.

And finally, we also have a moment that I thought would be cool, but just gets really lame. Gohan finally goes through a new transformation and he is in this transformation for ONLY 2 MINUTES. They literally had more screen time for Goku and Vegeta fighting than showing off Gohan finally using some of his hidden powers.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This movie have a great story, good characters, best 3D animation and the most important thing put more focused on other members of Z-Fighters specially Piccolo (Toriyama's favourite character). Toriyama wanted to make Piccolo great again and also wanted to gave him a new form, in this movie he done it all and you all gonna like it. The best thing about this movie is that we don't have enough of Goku & Vegeta. We've seen enough of the greatest duo and we wanted to see others badly. This movie proved that DB seires has its existence even without Goku & Vegeta. Piccolo is main lead character also most focused character here. His relationship with Pan is nostalgic. He get the new form which known as "Orange Piccolo" and believe me it's one hell of a transformation. Gives same vibe as SuperSaiyan transformation. Movie have best humour, best music and best action. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Está me parecería una película notable de no ser por las dos absurdas transformaciones que aparecen en ella. Un desastre para el canon de la saga. No criticaré el estilo particular de la animación, pero personalmente no me gusta y creo que "Broly" era el camino a seguir. Me parece estupendo que aparezca Pan y la idea de los dos "Superhéroes" engañados. Pero lo de volver a hacer Bio Broly con Célula me parece de una falta de imaginación alarmante.

Lo peor es que la saga se ríe de sí misma rompiendo aún más su coherencia interna al elevar de manera drástica el poder de varios personajes por arte de magia, con unas transformaciones además cuanto menos pintorescas.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Nostalgic, Easy to Catch Up, and Ready to Energize Us!

This movie focused on the Earth scenario with Son Gohan Famz, Picollo, etc. Even though, there is a glimpse of Son Goku & Vegeta in a very far place from Earth.

I really love this movie because it's so nostalgic as one of the most iconic anime in the world.

The main plot is Son Gohan's famz and Picollo got an unexpected enemy in a very peaceful earth situation while Son Gohan has already almost lost his strength due to his mundane as a scientist. Son Goku & Vegeta can't help them coz out of communication. This flawlessly makes sense coz both of them could easily beat the enemy, LOL.

The main pros are a well-narrated story and easy to understand. Gladfully, the quick intro really helps us to catch up with the story of Dragon Ball Z. Personally, I barely remembered the whole story but big thanks to these, LOL.

Next pros, this movie is really nostalgic with all of the chars and Japanese Anime ambiance. Japanese jokes & cultures, social construction & morals, stupidity & innocence are always part of the Anime Ambiance. This is hard to be missed by anime lovers.

Lastly, I'd say it's a reasonable movie. Not too long, not too many jokes, not too hard to understand, and everything seems perfect. Especially, the story is reasonable, coz the main enemy makes Son Gohan and his friends struggle due to lack of training.

Besides that, everything is just standard. Moral value, visual, and music is nothing special except my main motivation to lit my nostalgic memories.

Nevertheless, this movie is fun, so nostalgic, and easy to catch up! As typical of anime ambiance, this is ready to energize us with all of the hard work and motivational things. Perfect to cope with our burnt-out, so don't miss it!

Makes no sense.
Now the villains in the movie Gamma 1 and 2 they look more like robots than androids and I didn't find them particularly interesting at all they needed more time to develop. Also the fact that the red ribbon army is back has been done to death it's not an original idea it just seems lazy.
And the big bad Cell Max was not a terrible idea but I wish they just brought back Perfect Cell he was leagues more interesting than a giant raging monster
I mean resurrection F brought Frieza back why not Cell he was my favorite villian in the entire DBZ anime.
That's about it Pan was fine I guess piccolo was pretty cool Gohan was alright but the Villains weren't interesting.

Dragon Ball Super Broly was way better and done right do that again.
