So? It was, in my opinion, still an enjoyable and decent movie. But I'm not a Brolly fanatic.

Plot: 1/10

Emotion: 0/10

Character Development: 0/10

Character Personality: 6/10

Artwork: 7/10

Fun Factor: 5/10

Overall: 19/60

That's how I'd rate that film.

It's probably better in Japanese.

And saying so without explaining why is any better? It...really was very poorly made...

He turned to some kind of....freaking ugly swamp thing, did a lot of pointless crap, and got beaten by water.
It's a story that doesn't have Goku, Vegeta, or Gohan doing any fighting, the only movie where 18 actually does fighting, and a movie that shows Trunks and Goten having potential to be the next line of heroes for the series. That movie stands out the most compared to any other DragonBall Z movie. Giving a movie a 19/60 rating is easy but could you do any better? I doubt it..

I don't enjoy everything I lack the ability to produce.

I can't re-produce the holocaust, but I could still refer to it as a rather "unsavory" chain of events.

Guys, it might not be the best DBZ movie, but it's certainly enjoyable. Just as long as you don't overanalyze or nitpick. Not all of them are going to be as good as (insert your favorite DBZ movie here).

And can't we agree it's at least better than movie 4? :D

Movie 4 didn't focus on some stupid kids and Broly. :evil:

The only difference between Movie 11 and half the other movies is that it didn't have the absolute strongest characters duking it out. Put that aside, and it's not worse than Movie 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, and arguably 12.

Actually, what made it suck was the actual fighting sucked. Least that's what kills the movie for me. Not to mention that I was utterly annoyed with a 3rd Broly movie with a horrible new look that lasted most of the movie.

I think this movie, along with 1 and 2, had some of the best action sequences.

Well, it certainly had a naked Broly, I guess that's 3 cheers for the Broly fangirls and "fanboys". :P

But seriously, the main highlight for the movie for me was the #18/Mr. Satan interaction, Goten and Trunks' hilarious dialogue exchanges about biotechnology and whatnot, and the ending animation bit of Goten and Trunks growing up...infant Goten was just a priceless cute moment.

I don't think it was that bad personally, it was quite decent in my point of thinking, Trunks and Goten were good characters for the film, and there was decent amount of funny and suspenseful moments in there. And please don't flame me for my opinion, I'm just saying for a movie, it's pretty good.

The only movie I actually...really liked a lot was movie 2. I found the others to be rather...confusing and pointless. I just found this one to be so the most.

Two isn't so different from eleven if you think about it..

The villain wasn't an angry swamp monster who melts in water, was stupid enough before his brains turned to mush, actually has a motive other than "Broli Smash!" and the heroes have more reasons to fight than just...."oh noes, kill the strong bad guy". That and it had that old super hero movie feel...it felt oldschool, and the like...

All in all....this movie, to me, lacked almost anything positive.

Gah, so much hate for movie 11. It wasn't THAT bad. Trunks and Goten being the main heroes made me like it, and the plot that it all started because of Mr. Satan! That was kinda fresh after so many movies with the guy after Goku or Saiyans or anything. The ending animation with Trunks and Goten as babies made it greater.... Anyway for me it's a way better movie than the Lord Slug one...

Quiz: Hmm..Scientists using bio-warriors to unleash on the world, martial arts champion called to fight, Krillin makes an appearance, and a triple kamehameha.. which movie am I talking about: 2 or 11? :roll: Movie 11 is underrated. I'm no fan of Broli, believe me, but you have to admit it doesn't get the credit it should.

Eh, I watched the movie quite a while ago, and thought it was all right. The fact they were using Brolly once again was kinda screaming "MILK! MILK!"
But still, the fact it was Goten and Trunks kinda made it all right. And of course, Dragon Power Infinity, one of the coolest ending songs ever =D
