Great DBZ special.

One of the best Dragon Ball Z movies. Most like canon though it is not. Interesting story about Goku's father, full of interesting plot twists. It describes how it all began. The first four movies (Z series) I didn't like, but this one is great and I recommend it to everyone. Definitely the best of the first 5 DBZ movies.

Dragon Ball Z: Bardock - The Father of Goku (1990) is a wonderful story of Goku's father. I love the concept and the fact that it fits PERFECTLY in the DBZ Universe. Its problem is that it's too short. 48m is NOT enough!

I wanted to see MORE! I'm sure if this movie was longer it would have been ONE OF THE BEST DBZ movies!

Still, nevertheless, I'm sure you'll enjoy the movie!

Originally broadcast almost 11 yrs ago, this tv special shows how advanced japanese animation is, nowadays people have jumped on the DBZ bandwagon. Now DBZ is the most popular cartoon out there, and yet it ended almost 6 yrs ago.

This special "Story of Bardock" reveals Goku's father and his battle with Freeza, who would be very familiar to DBZ fans.

Bardock has dreams of a future son ,Goku who will save the universe from Freeza and all enemies.

Bardock at first denies this, thinking he is hallucinating,but when Freeza kills his friends and sets his sight on him, he knows it's more than a dream.

Like in the movie Superman, Bardock must send his son Guku, in a space pod so Freeza won't get to him.

The final showdown between Bardock and Freeza is memorable along with the action.

Goku would later become a great warrior and avenge his father by killing Freeza.

Later Freeza's brother, Koola would seek revenge on Goku.

As you can see what makes DBZ great are it's complex stories and it always follows up to the events in it.

Great DBZ special.

Really enjoyed this one. It piqued my curiosity about Goku's history and the destruction of Vegeta. Bardock getting clairvoyance early on gave way to some great scenes and storylines. I especially liked the conversations Bardock shared with his son. There is a great similarity between Bardock and Goku's rage after losing their teams at the hands of Frieza. This set the stage for Bardock's redemption and an absolute badass final push to end Frieza. The animation during that final push was awesome and the destruction of planet Vegeta was just straight up beautiful. Baby Vegeta and Bardock's crew fighting as apes were my other highlights.
