Dragon Ball Z: Fukkatsu no Fusion!! Gokuu to Vegeta

This is perhaps the greatest of the Dragon Ball Z movies. This one being the 12th one, Akira Toriyama had a lot of previous skill. Perhaps the 13th movie, Dragon Fist Explosion, is a little bit better than this, but they are both great. Perhaps the best part is when Janemba is fat and nice and junk, but then gets interesting. Be sure to see this movie, you can get it at a Japanese videostore or buy it off of eBay... Hope this helps!!!

The plot was great. The characters were great. And there was so much humor (mainly from Pai-Ku-Han) that you could just burst! I liked the animation and the way of defeating Janenba's force-field by cursing it. The movie was a laugh-riot.

This one features more fighting and comedy than most of the movies to this point. This one features a mistake that leads to the birth of a creature named Janemba. It promptly takes over otherworld and the dead come back to life on earth. Gohan, Videl, Trunks, and Goten go to stop the more rowdy ones while Goku and this green guy named Pikan try and solve the problem from their side. The fighting is top notch as you see Goku turn SSJ 3 for the first time in a movie...at first Janemba seems rather playful and harmless (kind of like Buu), but after he is seemingly beaten he turns into a very destructive creature. Vegeta comes to help and they must perform fusion to beat this new threat. Meanwhile, Trunks and Goten battle Hitler and his army (don't ask). My main complaint is the battle between the fused Vegeta and Goku and the villain does not last very long at all. Otherwise though this one is very entertaining and it has a very funny scene where the fusion does not work very well.

"Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn" (Or whatever you want to call it) is the 12th DBZ movie, (Depending on whether you count the specials or Video Games). It follows the story of the creation of a new more powerful monster, made up of all the negative souls of the afterlife. With that barrier down all the dead rise up and cause havoc. And Goku and Vegeta must work together to beat this new monster, Janenba.

This movie marked a new high point of quality for the DBZ movies. It is my favorite of all the animation styles. Some people may prefer "Super Broly", "Battle of Gods" or "Super- Superhero", but for me, this is the best these movies have ever looked. The fight scene between Janenba, Goku and Vegeta is full of great moments.

The B-Plot that they cut to also has some good moments. Including Goten and Trunks taking down a particular evil villain who got released from Hell.

On the downside, Janeba doesn't have much of a personality, he is just the big bad guy the heroes have to fight. Janenba follows too many of the same plot points that Majin Buu follows in the series.

The way the fight ends is also pretty underwhelming, it just ends too quickly. And perhaps they spend too much time on the fighting of evil henchman from Hell, that could have been spent on the more plot relevant stuff.

Nerd rant stuff: Shenron is completely wasted in this story and where was Cell?

If only they could fuse the best elements of this movie, with the best elements of another DBZ movie. Other than those gripes, this is an all-around good time. I highly recommend it to any DBZ fan.

If your an animation fan you've probably watched or have heard of Dragon ball Z. If you are one of those people I definitely recommend that you see this DBZ movie. This movie is filled with humor, action, and a lot of new things. The action in the movie is total nonstop action, and the humor is pretty funny. Animation fans will definitely be pleased by this movie, I know I was. The many new things include new fusions, new characters, and new enemies. There are many instances where the humor is very funny. The movie has just about every character in Dragonball Z. Again this movie will be great for animation lovers like me. I give this movie 9 stars out of ten.
