Looking at the cover for this movie, I bought it thinking that I would get the proper dosage of over-the-top action that defines DBGT.
Boy, was I glad to be wrong.
The cover is simply packed with lies, as to this is not an action-packed Chop Socky-fest. Instead, it focuses on Goku Jr., a decendant of (who else?) Goku, who's trying to find the 4-star Dragon Ball to save Pan, who is his grandmother. Along the way he encounters a hot bluish-green chick who wants to eat him, and teams up with a bully who's tormented him for ages.
No long, drawn-out fights here, just good storytelling and character development.
While there are plot inconsistincies (where in the heck are Goku Jr.'s parents?), this is a nice way to end Dragon Ball. Entirely worth the cash. |

Dragon Ball GT: A Hero's Legacy
FUNimation's box art is wrong. This is a TV special, not a movie.
INTRODUCTION:
The Dragon Ball franchise is one of the finest anime series in the world. The series, created as a manga by Akira Toriyama in 1984, has always been popular, and it isn't hard to see why - interesting characters, cool locales, and intriguing plotlines. However, Dragon Ball GT, the third and final chapter in the trilogy, was NOT created by Toriyama and generated a very mixed reaction from fans. To accompany the series, a single TV special, set one hundred years later, aired during the initial run.
OVERVIEW (RELEASES):
This is the GT TV special, which aired on Japanese TV in 1996 during the initial run of GT.
OVERVIEW (MOVIE):
This special is set 100 years after GT takes place, but PRIOR to the very end of GT with the "100 years later tournament" scene. Goku Jr., Pan's grandson, is a far cry from his several-generations-ago grandfather who has long since passed on. He's a wimp and a weakling who is bullied constantly, But when his grandmother falls ill, he sets out on a journey to Mount Paozu, to retrieve his ancestor's magical Dragon Ball, in an effort to cure his grandmother.
REVIEW (MOVIE):
Not bad. I actually preferred this special to most of the actual GT anime. From start to finish, with its emphasis on adventure, this felt more like an episode of the original Dragon Ball than anything GT related. It's got its share of touching moments and action scenes. But if you're looking for DBZ/late GT-style action-filled combat, this movie may not be for you. Just the same I enjoyed it, and feel it's a nice addition to the catalogue. Thumbs up.
OVERALL:
Excellent special. Well worth adding to your collection if you're a fan.
EDITION NOTES:
FUNimaton released an uncut DVD with Jap and Eng versions.

I've been a Dragonball fan for a while now, and this has to be the most interesting dragonball movie yet. This brings back the adventurous quality that was found in the "Lost Episodes" of Dragon Ball GT, or the Dragonball series as a whole. Its an enjoyable experience, but the main character, Son Goku (Not the one we all know, his Great great Grandson) is a bit of a wimp, which is disappointing to see.
Overall, if you want a good anime experience, or you just like Dragonball, this movie is worth watching again and again |

| Don't get me wrong I liked the movie alot but it's not as good as some of the previous Dragonball movies. It is cute though, Goku Jr. reminds me a lot of Goku. If you love Dragonball like me then you'll definitely like this movie! |
