Quote: ZOE: If they take the ship, they'll rape us to death, eat our flesh and sew our skins into their clothing and if we're very very lucky,I... have just returned from a screening of Dragonball Evolution. If we think of the 'ship' mentioned in the quote, as our childhood, and
they'll do it in that order.
the movie as Reavers.. then the above quote fits like the proverbial shoe. I went in with zero. no.. less than zero expectations due to all the bad press and
it wasn't enough.
I thought y'know if I treat it like a comedy like it was intentionally bad, sort of mock it with my friends during the show it would be bearable. This
strategy lasted for the first 5 minutes. After that trainwreck syndrome activated and it was slackjaw wide eyed horror as how immensely perverted (and not in
the good sense) Akira Toriyama's story has become. At last I have something I in my experience that I can relate to when someone talks about losing sanity
due to cthulhu mythos. Probably the only way you could watch the movie and enjoy it is if you've never seen or heard of the original story and even then it
will be a B-grade movie with super predictable lines and direction.
I write this as a warning for people who think they know what they are getting into. I write this as a deterrent. I write this so that you may save yourselves
and your loved ones from the horror...
