Finished the DBZ movies today:

Brolli Second Coming - This movie has some good moments in it, but it is ultimately lackluster. There is just no way Brolli survived getting Goku's fist through his body, and yet, he somehow made it all of the way to Earth only to conveniently get frozen for 7 years. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight. And of course, instead of just having Gohan use his power to defeat Brolli, we have to have Goku come down to save the day in ghost form. The best part of the movie is watching Trunks pee on Brolli. The writers do not even seem to know the concept of drabon ball with the randomness of them performing a wish without Shenron appearing, disappearing without giving a second wish, and every other plot hole imaginable, this movie sucks. I give it a 3/10 stars.

Bio Brolli: Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, what the hell did I watch? This is without a doubt the worst of them all. The plot is just so damn stupid and boring. The only thing I give the movie points for is for having 18 wreck Satan's home and not having Goku come down to save the day. Other than that, thi movie sucks. I give it a 1/10 stars.

Fusion Reborn: This movie is easily the best of them all. It has a unique plot to it, it is funny, and the fights are awesome. While Janemba is far from the most interesting villain in the series, the lack of any dialog from him is a nice change of pace. He is just there to kick ass and chew bubblegum, nothing more, nothing less. It is cool to see Freeza back for the whole 30 seconds he was there. The highlight of the movie is easily Hitler facing off against Goten and Trunks though. That was just awesome. Overall, I'm giving this one a 7/10. Oh, and I love the ending with Shenron.

Wrath of the Dragon: This one is quite interesting because it seems to focus more on Trunks than anyone else, which makes it strangely good. Like Janemba, Hildegarn ends up being a unique villain for the heroes to face, which once again is nice. In fact, it seems Toei really played up their A game with their final two movies when it came to trying something new and in their animation department. The animation is just gorgeous and looks really high quality here. Unfortunately, I cannot say the same for the audio as it is extremely low to the point that I had to turn my receiver up almost to max. The story is interesting even if it is slow moving. Once again they seem to have forgotten the rules of the show though, as Shenron just leaves after one wish is made instead of two and Bulma somehow has Trunks' time machine. Despite these little flaws, I'm giving this movie a 7/10.

And that is it as far as the DBZ movies are concerned. It was nice to rewatch them for the first time in nearly 6 years, but it was also a refresher for me on why I don't want them all that often. In fact, if it weren't for them having Dragonball Z in their titles, I wouldn't keep them. Still, they are vastly superior to what Toei gave us with GT as regardless for these movies' issues, they don't just completely jack up the characters themselves.
