The Sins of the Saiyans
16 January 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Another one of the recently re-released TV DBZ movies, and one of the few 45 minute features with a real story. This one centers around the back story behind the Frieza's betrayal and untimely genocide of the Saiyans. The main reason to see this, overall, to see how much of a bad ass Goku's father(Sonny Strait) was! But on a serious note, this movie is great because it shows the barbarity of the Saiyans without sugar coating it at all. And yet we still sympathy for them, personified mostly threw Vegeta, who we see as a child here. Very early on we see the greater evil of Frieza, who is as menacing as ever.

Very good voice acting throughout, and a flowing story as well. The action is brutal, bloody and just plain awesome to boot. This movie is an essential if you're a fan and for animation and anime fans in general.
